A phantom preconstructed event starting from 2022 aimed to introduce new players to Magic Online to the Modern format[1].

This event replaced the earlier New to MTGO Modern Gauntlet from 2020, and was succeeded by the New to MTGO Modern Gauntlet League (2025).

Azorius Control

A White manaBlue mana control deck.

“  Control the board early on with counterspells and Stoneforge Mystic, then close out the game with powerful planeswalkers or an unanswered Shark Typhoon!  ”

Dimir Mill

A Blue manaBlack mana mill deck.

“  Use spells like Glimpse the Unthinkable and Archive Trap to reduce your opponent's deck size to zero and win the game! These spells can also let you abuse cards like Scheming Symmetry and enable the powerful modes of Shelldock Isle and Visions of Beyond.  ”
Dimir Mill

Eldrazi Tron

A colorless typal Eldrazi deck which takes advantage of the Urzatron lands.

“  Take advantage of the fast-mana Eldrazi Temple and the Urza's lands provide to cast a host of Eldrazi creatures ahead of schedule. Sanctum of Ugin means that even your lands or Expedition Maps can find more huge threats in the late game!  ”

Gruul Titanshift

A Red manaGreen mana deck.

“  Use early mana acceleration to cast a Primeval Titan or a Scapeshift and find Valakut, the Molten Pinnacle alongside Mountains to burn your opponent out. Don't forget that Dryad of the Ilysian Grove turns your lands into Mountains for even more damage!  ”

Izzet Storm

A Blue manaRed mana Storm combo deck.

“  Storm wants to cast a ton of spells in one turn to set up a Grapeshot that can deal 20 damage. Spend the early turns casting cheap draw effects to sculpt the perfect hand or cast a Gifts Ungiven for Past in Flames and mana-producing rituals to go off!  ”

Mono-Red Prowess

A monored aggro deck which takes advantage of the Prowess mechanic.

“  Play a cheap prowess creature and then cast a flurry of cheap spells to get in for a lot of quick damage! Look to cards like Light Up the Stage and Bedlam Reveler to reload after you've emptied your hand.  ”
Mono-Red Prowess

Mono-White Blink

A monowhite deck. It was nearly identical to the Mono-White Blink deck from the previous Gauntlet, with Isolate replacing On Thin Ice in the sideboard. This also meant that Snow-Covered Plains were no longer needed.

“  Take advantage of cards like Charming Prince and Restoration Angel alongside Thraben Inspector and Blade Splicer to get value while you tax opponent's mana with your Thalias.  ”

Simic Infect

A Green manaBlue mana Infect deck.

“  Infect creatures only need to deal ten points of damage to win the game, so pair them with pump spells and disruption. Look for openings where your opponent is tapped out to unload all of your pump spells and win out of nowhere!  ”
