The first, Challenge Phase of the event is a PvE matchup and second and third Duel and Final Duel Phases are PvP matches. There are separate Challenge Phase rewards and rewards received after the Final Duel. Which side the player chooses to play also determines rewards; Challenge rewards can be received from both sides, but once a Final Duel side is chosen, rewards can only be received from that side.
Unique to Duel Decks events, Winning Side rewards are given to the side with the most wins across all players in the event.
If the player chooses Eldrazi in the final phase, their deck can include only Blue, Black, Red and Colorless cards.
