VonThronstahl Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 (edited) 1. Garruk Start by casting both Angelic Blessing on the Skyhunter Skirmisher and attack. That way you'll deal 7 damage 2 times and win. *ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED* Magic: The Puzzling 10 G 2. Elspeth Start by gaining control of Elspeth's Soul Warden. Then summon the Raging Goblin and attack with both creatures. If you take another creature or play the goblin first, she'll get 1 lifepoint and you won't be able to win. 3. Garruk Start by tapping the Elvish Piper to summon the Roughshod Mentor which gives trample to all creatures. Then attack and WAIT until she chooses to block your creatues. Then cast the three Giant Growth on the right Grizzly Bears. 4. Chandra Start by playing the second Megrim and then summon the Ravenous Rats to make her drop a card and deal the first 4 damage. Then simple attack with all creatures, take her down to 4 lifepoints and defeat her by dealing 4 extra damage because she has to drop 2 cards. 5. Liliana Start by casting Eyeblight's Ending and destroy Liliana's Nightmare. After that summon the Elvish Warrior and Elvish Eulogist. This creates the three tokens you need. Tap the Immaculate Magistrate and choose the Elven Riders as a target to increase their attack to 13 and attack with that creature to defeat Liliana. Wait for the token and creature to summon, or else you'll end up with 11/11 or 12/12! 6. Chandra Start by using Prodigal Pyromancer's ability and deal 1 damage to Chandra. Next, use Boomerang to return your own Persuasion enchantment that is attached to Prodigal Pyromancer to your hand. Next, use Persuasion on Raging Goblin. Then attack with Raging Goblin and Phantom Warrior. The combined unblockable damage will be just enough to kill Chandra. 7. Nissa Start by using Terror and killing Elvish Champion. Next, skip to the combat phase and attack with every creature that you control. Now, press X to stop the timer and pump your remaining 4 mana into Flameblast Dragon's ability. Use his ability to kill your own Sprouting Thrinax. This will generate 3 more Saprolings and boost your currently attacking Saprolings. This will cause enough damage to kill Nissa. 8. Liliana Start by using two Incinerates on Platinum Angel. Then, play Rip-Clan Crasher. Next, use Knight of the Skyward Eye's ability to boost himself. Then, use Sangrite Surge on Knight of the Skyward Eye. Now, attack with Knight of the Skyward Eye, Rip-Clan Crasher, and Mistmeadow Skulk. When you declare the end of your attack phase, Liliana will try to use Royal Assassin to destroy Knight of the Skyward Eye. In response, press X and use Brion Stoutarm's ability and destroy Knight of the Skyward Eye and deal 8 damage to Liliana. Then let your other 2 attackers deal the rest. *ACHIEVEMENT UNLOCKED* Puzzling Master 20 G Thanks to Gamer0278 for the solution of 6, 7 and 8. #9 Jace - Cast one Etherium Sculptor (You must cast this FIRST), Master of Etherium, Howling Mine, Onyx Goblet and Loxodon Warhammer. Use Terror to kill Jace's Wall of Air. Tap the Onyx Goblet to do 1 damage and attack with everything you have. #10 Elspeth - Cast Obsidian Battle-Axe and Vengeful Firebrand equipping the axe on the firebrand. Attack with everything. When Madbutton Torchrunner dies it will allow you to do 3 more damage to Elspeth to win the match. This challenge will force you to target your own creatures. Cast Jagged Lightning and target the untapped Angel and your own Mudbutton Torchrunner. When the Torchrunner dies, have it deal 3 damage to Elspeth. Now cast Vengeful Firebrand. Because of Bramblewood Paragon it will be a 6/3 trampling creature and because the Torchrunner is in your graveyard, it will have haste. Attack with both creatures and you will push through enough damage to kill Elspeth no matter how she blocks. #11 Liliana - Attack with all three creatures you have, once blockers are declared cast Condemn on your Ambassador Laquatas, cast Kiss of Amasha on yourself, play one of your lands and end your turn. On her turn she will sommon a bunch of creatures and attack (She will also kill your Purity when she summons Nekrataal). Unsummon her Crowd of Cinders and take the rest of the damage, discard either one of your dispeller's capsules or your wrath of god. On your turn play your other plain, recast Ambassador Laquatas and use his ability as many times as your mana allows (3 to be exact). End your turn and you should win the game when Liliana tries to draw her card. DLC Expansion 2 Challenges 1.Garruk Play Blade of Bloodchief on Vampire Nighthawk Play Feast of Blood on Giant Spider Play Disfigure on Ruthless Cullblade (yours) Play Disfigure on Ruthless Cullblade (yours) Attack with Vampire Nighthawk 2.Garruk Play Selective Memory and select all cards Play Treasure Hunt Play 1 Land Card Play Primal Frenzy Attack with Maro 3.Nicol Bolas Playing Evoling Wilds Use Evolving Wilds ability Play Excommunicate on Phage the Untouchable Play Brainstorm and select any 2 cards except Polymorph Play Polymorph on Darksteel Colossus 4.Tezzeret Continue through your turn and take the 4 damage Continue to the end of your turn and cancel picking a creature Continue to the end of your turn and then pick Lorthos, the Tidemaker Attack with Lorthos, the Tidemaker and select all his island land cards Play an island land Play Unsummon on Platnium Angel 5.Sarkham Vol Play summoner's Pact and pick Seedborn Muse Play Elvish Piper's ability and pick Seedborn Muse Play Eladamri's Call and pick Plated Geopede Play Plated Geopede If Sarkham start to use blaze hit (x) Play Harrow and pick a tapped land to discard and 2 forest lands Play Harrow and pick a tapped land to discard and 2 mountains Use Khalni Heart Expedition ability When the Plated Geopede reaches 13/13 use fling and select player, sacrifice Plated Geopede Edited August 17, 2011 by Shinobi273 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gamer0278 Posted June 18, 2009 Share Posted June 18, 2009 Hey, I figured out the solution to the 6th and 7th challenges. These were stressful, but fun all the same. Anyway, here is the solution: 6th challenge: Start by using Prodigal Pyromancer's ability and deal 1 damage to Chandra. Next, use Boomerang to return your own Persuasion enchantment that is attached to Prodigal Pyromancer to your hand. Next, use Persuasion on Raging Goblin. Then attack with Raging Goblin and Phantom Warrior. The combined unblockable damage will be just enough to kill Chandra. 7th challenge: Start by using Terror and killing Elvish Champion. Next, skip to the combat phase and attack with every creature that you control. Now, press X to stop the timer and pump your remaining 4 mana into Flameblast Dragon's ability. Use his ability to kill your own Sprouting Thrinax. This will generate 3 more Saprolings and boost your currently attacking Saprolings. This will cause enough damage to kill Nissa.

OSUAvenger Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 Technically your solution for #8 is wrong. that way is taking advantage of the bad AI. If the computer actually used the 2 blockers like it should.. IE block with the Royal Assassin the the Rat and then kill your Knight you would only get the throw damage and not the extra 3 from the attackers leaving her at one. The way listed below is the way I did it and it doesn't abuse the AI. 2. Incinerate both the Royal Assassin and the Ravenous Rats. Play Pariah on the Platinum Angel. Play Sangrite Surge on the Knight of the Skyward Eye. Activate Knight of the Skyward Eye. Attack with Knight of the Skyward Eye and Mistmeadow Skulk. When the 8 First Strike Damage is on the stack and the Dread Ability pops up, Sacrifice the Knight of Skyward Eye to the Brion Stoutarm's ability and target yourself. This kills the Platinum Angel due to Pariah. Mistmeadow Skulk gets in the last point of damage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Deleted2014-12-02 Posted June 20, 2009 Share Posted June 20, 2009 ^Does it really matter? +1 internets to VonThronstahl for this guide and I'll be more than happy to make an video version of it upon request. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlipSwitch Posted June 21, 2009 Share Posted June 21, 2009 (edited) Great guide, respect. +Kudos to you. Also, if you dont already have it the 7th Challenge against Nissa will gain you the Devastator achievement - Dealing 20 points of damage in a single turn.

Deftones22 Posted June 22, 2009 Share Posted June 22, 2009 i tried your answer for #3 and it doesn't work. he just keeps blocking with his 7/10 wall and 2/2 guys and i dont deal enough trample damage. Edit: sorry misread it, it was confusing, but now i understand you cast 3 giant growths on a grizzly bear that gets blocked by the 2/2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
