Battle the Horde
Battle the Horde is a challenge deck that will be used at the Born of the Gods Game Day. It's also the name of the sixth quest of the Hero's Path. [1] The deck features the rampaging Minotaurs of Theros, as foretold in the Theriad.
Description
The Challenge Deck is a special self-running deck with its own set of rules, which are printed on the Game Day vinyl playmat. A paper copy of the playmat is included with each Challenge Deck. The 60 card deck conains 15 different cards, which for the first times include artifacts.
How to play
Compared to Face the Hydra, there are important differences to note for Battle the Horde. This deck is a single-player challenge. The rules for Battle the Horde deck are different than for Face the Hydra, and are not convertible to a multiplayer experience. [2] In battling the minotaur horde, players can use up to three Hero Cards from any of the five earlier Quests. They may only use each Hero Card once. [3] Defeating the Horde means they've earned another Hero Card.
The Horde has no life. Instead, for each 1 damage one card from the Horde's deck is put into the graveyard. You win when the Horde has no cards left in the deck and no more creatures on the battlefield.
