    I am going to continue to play Nissa until we get Mana Confluence, but I can't understand how the devs thought that pitting a colourless Planeswalker against a mono Planeswalker (Green, of all the Colours) would be a fair fight.  And if you're a new player, who're you going to automatically gravitate towards?  I know that the very first Beta Test everyone co ordinated and got Mana Confluence, but now it just seems like if you were in Beta Test A you have an exclusive Mythic.  
    In legacy Green is arguably the strongest color, but that's only if you have a very large legacy collection.

    My best guess is that the devs thought they made the Eldrazi walker's abilities and mana so bad that it would make up for the color advantage.  Clearly they were wrong.

    I found it a bit challenging to make a green deck that satisfied the objectives (Pauper and <11cc) that could beat the Legacy-quality Eldrazi parade. There just aren't many good green weenies in my collection, and as it turns out Berserking was my most reliable way to deal with critters (at least, the ground-pounders anyways).

    Once I made the objectives and could swap out for power the deck I made had no problems at all... :)

    I actually usually run an Eldrazi deck with Nissa in order to take advantage of all the devoid gems being made.  And the scions are a big help for dealing with my opponents.  But I have a fairly large collection from Zendikar, something most newer players wont have

    @TomB You don't need to get both objectives at once, it's much easier to do one at a time.

    They _still_ haven't told us that we get extra points for using the objectives in every match, maybe they only count the once? We really don't know but that's how I've been treating it.
    1 pauper game
    1 <11 game
    rest are no holds barred... (Though I can often keep the <11 deck!)

    Hi Everyone. Thank you so much for providing all of your feedback and experiences of playing through the event! The team has been reviewing threads like these, and they plan on making adjustments to the event.

    Until they're able to finalize and implement those adjustments though, the Zendikar vs Eldrazi event will be removed from the schedule. Thank you for understanding!

    @Brigby can the DDZE cards go on sale for a couple days?

    I'm no developer, so I don't know if those cards are tied to the event being run, but I'll be sure to ask the team about that possibility.

    If they are tied to the event then it’s been broken the last two runs as they haven’t been available to purchase during them..........
