    I had to chime in here. I'm a new player of about 5 months and even I could come up with a better deck than whatever Lilliana Vess's deck was supposed to be. A complete and utter garbage slow, mana hungry deck against a fast buffing weenie deck. Do the designers even play this game? It seriously looks like somebody clicked some cards at random and called it a day.

    I've tried the Liliana deck at least 10 times, and I cannot win lol

    Same here. Eventually I gave up.

    It’s possible, I did it. It’s just REALLY REALLY REALLY hard

    No creature kill in that Jace deck now, not sure how you're supposed to deal with the Dread in Liliana's deck...

    ...Then again Liliana's Dread just died for no reason that I can determine in the game I just played...

    OK great now I'm fighting against Garruk with Chandra, all my creature kill is damaged based, and he has a Timber Protector with prevent damage.

    Ysee the thing about PvE is that what people are looking for there is a curated experience. Just throwing 10 cards at random into 2 decks is unlikely to create interesting synergies, and the experience is therefore likely to be unsatisfying.

    Absurd once again. If they truly don't want to make the slightest effort to create interesting decks and matchups between PWs, they didn't even choose the pairings properly because they didn't even look at the decks. There are two very simple options: don't create these absurd events at all, or add a random deck-building button every time you log to play into this event. Either option is better than this nonsense.

    I barely made it through Lorwyn 5.

    But I have questions about Chandra vs. Garruk!

    The thing is, if you play Chandra, Garruk has a huge advantage—he plays an immortal Protector, meaning he has Reach and invulnerability. It's IMPOSSIBLE to beat a game like that with Chandra, as long as his immortal and doesn't let all the creatures through.
    I get the impression that Chandra's design is based on the SPEED of mana replenishment and getting creatures onto the battlefield early before Garruk plays the immortal, otherwise you lose.

    I tried a few times because Garruk plays the immortal every now and then and always has the same creature in his hand, but after six tries, I was able to get through quickly, deal enough damage to the creatures, and fulfill a specific loyalty requirement. And I barely closed it.

    The question remains: have you even tried it against Garruk with an immortal creature?!
    People have asked more than once to allow players to CHOOSE their own deck, so they can banish or destroy creatures to circumvent his immortality.
    And then there wouldn't be any questions now. Although I still managed to beat Lorwyn 5...

    @Magic:PQ Support Team I feel like there must be something fundamentally wrong with me because I really want to build my own deck in a deck-building game. Where is this disconnect coming from?

    I just completed Chandra stage (purely by luck).
    In my case, I needed RNG for Wild Ricochet to copy Lignify so that I can bypass Timber Protector by nullifying its Reach ability.
    This is just so dumb and prove the argument that the devs never tested the event by themselves.
