The final campaign for Magic Duels: Origins follows pre-spark Nissa Revane on the plane of Zendikar[1][2][3][4].

“  You are Nissa Revane, a warrior of the Joraga, a tribe of elves on Zendikar. To survive on such a wild plane, you must be tough and practical. However, you are uncannily attuned to nature. Elemental forces respond to your command, a gift some in your tribe fear.  ”

There are five matches in which the player represents Nissa against a series of computer-controlled opponents. Decks start at 40 cards, with 5 added each match for a total of 60 for the final match.

Nissa's first mission

In the first match, Nissa (monogreen) faces the monoblack Vampire Stalkers.

“  You have recurring visions that leave you with the unshakable feeling that there's a darkness hunting you. In an attempt to protect your tribe from whatever is after you, you flee Joraga territory. Not far outside the safety of the forest, you detect the unmistakable scent of vampires.[5]  ”

Victory message
“  Though you repressed your elemental powers around the Joraga, now you let them flow. The stalking vampires will not bother you again. As your connection with the land deepens, you begin to understand that the darkness is not hunting you, it's calling you. There's a blight deep in the continent of Akoum--that is where you must go.[5]  ”

Nissa's second mission

In the second match, Nissa faces a monoblue deck representing The Roil.

“  As you draw closer to the mountains of Akoum, you can feel the land churn with the raw magic of the plane. This is the Roil--the manifestation of Zendikar's wild mana. Before you can react, you are caught up in it.[5]  ”

19 Island

Victory message
“  As the Roil subsides, the land before you coalesces into an earthen beastlike form. The elemental approaches you with its head low, and you know that it is an ally. You form a bond with it, and you sense that it will guide you the rest of the way to Akoum.[5]  ”

Nissa's third mission

In the third match Nissa faces a Red manaGreen mana typal Eldrazi deck. The opponent starts with 100 life and Emrakul, the Aeons Torn in hand. To win the match, the player needs to survive until the 15 generic mana mana Emrakul is cast.

“  Your journey into the mountains becomes harder with each step. As you approach a towering peak, the darkness grows into something almost tangible. The land tells you this is the source of the blight. You reach out to it, and suddenly your mind is overwhelmed by otherworldly visions of an ancient horror.[5]  ”

Victory message
“  You've seen too much. The power of the entity hibernating within the land threatens to drive you mad. You scream, clinging desperately to sanity. Around you, the mountain, the horror within it, and Zendikar itself all begin to fade away.[5]  ”

Nissa's fifth mission

In the final match Nissa faces Dwynen with a Black manaGreen mana Elf typal deck.

“  You intervene on the boggarts' behalf, and Dwynen and her elves quickly turn on you. As they chase you through the woods, you feel a connection to this new land forming. You call on both your elemental powers and your skills as a Joraga warrior. These elves don't know what they're in for.  ”
