| '''Duel Decks: Jace vs. Chandra''' is the second set in the [[Duel Decks]] series. It was released on November 7th 2008 (MSRP: $19.99) and contains two preconstructed [[theme deck]]s, one oriented around [[Jace Beleren]] and the other on [[Chandra Nalaar]].
| |
| | |
| In contrast to ''[[Elves vs. Goblins]]'', it features cards from the last 15 years. ''Elves vs. Goblins'' featured [[tribal]] decks while ''Jace vs. Chandra'' features the ''best'' [[burn]] spells and the ''best'' [[counter|counterspells]]. It has eight [[rare]]s, two of them [[foil]] [[alternate art]] [[Jace Beleren]] and [[Chandra Nalaar]] cards. Additionally, four other cards have new art including <c>Counterspell</c>.
| |
| | |
| It was re-released on December 3, 2010 in a limited run Japanese-language version, with new manga-style alternate-art for Jace and Chandra.

| ==Storyline==
| |
| ''Duel Decks: Jace vs. Chandra'' is loosely based on the webcomic ''Fuel for the Fire'', in which Jace and Chandra fight for possession of a magical scroll containing a map with the location of a powerful fire spell. Chandra uses her powerful fire magic, while Jace uses mind magic and illusions to great effect. It is later revealed that the scroll leads to the [[Eye of Ugin]] on [[Zendikar]]. Much later, in the webcomic ''Awakenings'', Jace and Chandra arrive at the Eye at almost the same time. This time, however, they team up and use the spell <c>Ghostfire</c> to defeat [[Sarkhan Vol]].
| |
| | |

| There are two foil mythic rare cards with alternate artwork:
| |
