=== Special rules ===
 
+
{{Color restrict}}
Start with 1 charges, 2 hour recharge, max 4 charges per node. 
+
The Guild of the day provides a special benefit (to both players) on all nodes via a permanent support.
 
 
Winning once on a node unlocks the next node. 
 
 
 
Each guild fights the other four guilds.  The featured guild rotates daily.<blockquote>Everyday a special event support associated with a Guild will affect all the nodes. The Guild is represented both by the event subtitle, the background during the node selection screen, and by the special support. Also, that guild's color combination will not be present on the available nodes during that Guild's day, as its presence is represented by the rules applied to all nodes.</blockquote>

Overview

Rising Tensions is a PvE Standard event introduced in November 2018, along with the release of the Guilds of Ravnica set. The event has an entry fee of 20 Mana Crystals.

Five variations of the event runs during the week. On each day, the player fights for a different Guild of Ravnica. The player battles against nodes representing the other four Guilds.

Special rules

Color restriction Color restriction One or more nodes in this event can only be played by Planeswalkers of a specified color.

The Guild of the day provides a special benefit (to both players) on all nodes via a permanent support.
