1. INTRODUCTION & FAQ CHANGES
1.1 INTRODUCTION
Magic The Gathering: Battlegrounds is a real-time strategy combat game. Based
loosely on the CCG by Wizards of the Coast, the game play is fast, in depth,
and innovating. Two duelists face off against each other on an arena divided
in half; summoning creatures, casting enchantments, and various spells, until
only one remains.
1.2 CHANGES
V0.8 - Initial Release of this Guide/FAQ, Arcade Guide not done yet
V0.9 - First Update; Added Red, Green, & White Arcade sections, missing
strategy from my custom deck, Black Forest
V1.0 - Full release; Added the remaining sections of Arcade Duel Walkthrough
V1.1 - Removed Deck section and made it into a different guide; added a few
alternative strategies for several missions
1.3 PATCH CHANGES, FIXES, AND EXPLANATIONS
As of this release, there have been no patches or changes yet.
2. BACKGROUND
Quote from Manual:
"Take control of powerful duelists and engage in epic duels for magical
supremacy via Xbox Live. Whether cracking the earth with powerful spells or
summoning ferocious minions, you will have to use both brains and brawn to
defeat your enemies. Overwhelming challenges surround -- the time has come
to focus your energies and unleash the power within!"
Author: The game doesn't have a major story to back it, but when you select
Quest for the first time, a movie begins to give you a start vaguely
explaining what you are doing. Apparently, the powerful Planeswalker Mishra
allied himself with the black spider, Tsabo Tavoc, betraying a third duelist.
As he took her powers, a gem for each of the five colors escapes, spread
throughout the land. You are to seek out these gems and rebuild a powerful
artifact.
3. PLAYING THE GAME
3.1 Quest Mode
Quote from Manual:
"Quest is a six-chapter adventure that will teach you basic and advanced
dueling techniques and tactics. Complete the entire adventure and defeat all
boss-level characters to unlock duelists that are hidden in the game."
Author: Quest mode is how you unlock cards. You begin with no spells, and
must do the first three 'Quests' to learn the basics before being given a
creature spell. From there on out, until Chapter 6 of the quests, you get
one card after every Quest. Each Chapter collects an entire set of one color,
before moving on to the next. You will be required to use the card you just
received in the next duel every time. It's basically a very, very extended
tutorial. At the end of Chapter 6, you will unlock Mishra if you beat him.
3.2 Arcade Duel
Quote from Manual:
"In the mood for a quick series of duels? Arcade Duel lets you duel against
computer-controlled opponents using a predetermined character."
Author: In Arcade Duel, you'll unlock new Duelists to choose to play as for
each deck you build. To unlock the next Duelist of a color, you must play the
Arcade Duel as the current available Duelist of that color. You cannot use
custom decks to unlock any color-aligned Duelists. Once you have unlocked all
Duelists of all five colors, as well as played through all three tiers of the
Arcade Duel with a custom deck, you will unlock the Legend Tsabo Tavoc.
3.3 Vs Duel
Quote from Manual:
"In this mode you can try out new spellbooks and strategies against your
friends. Just select duelists and spellbooks, choose an arena, set the duel
length and number of rounds, and go!"
Author: The manual pretty much says everything for this one. Standard Vs mode
for a game. Only the unlocked Duelists can be selected for prebuilt decks, but
you can choose Custom Decks (with whoever the duelist is) from any profile on
the Xbox HD (not the memory card).
3.4 Practice Duel
Quote from Manual:
"In Practice Duel you can test out your custom deck against any duelist you
have unlocked from Arcade Duel, or just indulge in quick games against a
single computer controlled opponent. Practice Duel lets your refine your
skills and develop your technique before you duel against a human opponent."
Author: Practice Duels are 3 rounds at 10 minutes each, on the Arena of your
choice. The advantage is the ability to select specific decks to play AGAINST
(excluding any custom ones), which is good for refining against certain things.
However, if you simply want to "test" your deck, play through the 3rd tier of
Arcade mode with it for a better trial.
3.5 Xbox Live
All of the following is from the Manual:
Ready for some real competition? Xbox Live lets you compete against other Xbox
Live players via the Internet, using your choice of duelists and spells. You
can also use Xbox Live to download exclusive spells and accessories, as well
as participate in on-line tournaments.
Xbox Live is a high-speed or broadband internet gaming community where you can
create a permanent gamer identity, set up a Friends list with other players,
see when they're online, invite them to play, and talk to them in real-time as
you play.
If you are an Xbox Live subscriber, you can download the very latest (such as
new levels, missions, weapons, vehicles, and more) to your Xbox console.
-Connecting-
Before you can play Magic: The Gathering - Battlegrounds online, you need to
connect your Xbox console to a high-speed or broadband Internet connection,
and sign up for Xbox Live service. To determine if Xbox Live is available in
your region and for information about connecting to Xbox Live, see
www.xbox.com/connect and select your country.
-Playing-
Use Quickstart to quickly find a game and get playing, choose your spellbook
and start dueling. Use Optimatch if you want to fight someone a little closer
to you in the standings, or perhaps join the dueling elite, choose the room,
choose the level of your competitor and earn your ranking.
Create a Match if you to duel in a specific arena or if you want to control the
number of rounds and the time limit of the duel.
Your Friends List allows you to invite friends for a duel. Use Statistics to
keep an eye on the most skilled duelists out there. Watch for new content and
download the latest spell and arena updates.

6. CARD STRATEGIES, COMBOS, TIPS
Card: Avatar of Might
This guy is huge. Here's a tip to really annoy your opponent. Summon him
at the VERY BOTTOM of the screen, as close to the line as possible. Then
go stand on the line at the bottom, running across it and back repeatedly.
Stay long enough to not take damage. This will cause the view to zoom in
on you and the enemy duelist, forcing the Avatar of Might to block the
majority of his/her view.
Card: Counterspell
This one is tricky to play with. Scorching Missile, for example, has a
variable resolving speed. The further the distance between you and the
enemy duelist, the longer it takes to finish. You can counter the spell as
long as the fireballs are still in the air.
Card: Spiritualize
This is a great card. You can cast it multiple times on the same creature.
If your 2/1 Youthful Knight has 4 Spiritualizes on it, you will get 8 life
when he hits something with at least 2 defense. Very useful on stronger
creatures. Best I've done was against Multani in Practice Duel. Warrior
Angel, Guided Strike, 6 Spiritualizes against his Giant Spider. I gained
28 life when my Angel splattered the Giant Spider with her first strike. :)
Card: Harbinger of Night
Try Warrior's Honor to counter the effects (until respawn) on all of your
own creatures. This will also keep Harbinger around an extra 5 seconds per
cast of Warrior's Honor. Or use Giant Growth to make Harbinger use his
ability three more times.
Card: Gratuitous Violence
One in play doubles all of your creatures damage, but two in play doubles
THAT (Quadruple damage).
Card: Pendrell Mists
Having two in play drains two mana per respawn instead of one. Much faster
and efficient for control decks (this should have been learned in Quest
mode though).

9. QUEST & ARCADE WALKTHROUGHS
9.1 QUEST WALKTHROUGH
9.1.1 CHAPTER 1
QUEST: MANA GLADE
Game Directions/Hints:
1. Collect three mana crystals that rise from the ground.
2. Stay away from the far side of the arena, it is deadly!
3. Beware of crossing the center line of the arena. You will take
damage and die if you linger on the enemy side of the arena.
Author's Directions:
Simply grab three crystals as they pop up. Before grabbing the third
crystal, walk across the center line and stay there for 3 seconds
until you take damage. This will bring up two messages that only occur once
per profile, but will go ahead and get them out of the way forever.
QUEST: ATTACK TRAINING
Game Directions/Hints:
1. You can deal damage to creatures and duelists by using your attack. By
pulling the R trigger, your duelist will attack the creature or duelist
closest to you for 1 damage. Run toward the target as you attack for the
best chance of hitting it before it hits you. Your attack also works on
flying creatures.
2. By pulling the R trigger your duelist will attack the creature or duelist
closest to you. Try attacking just before it attacks you.
3. You can also attack creatures just after they have attacked you. Pull the
R trigger to attack them.
Author's Directions:
When the messages are gone to begin with, press R trigger to swing. Then
another message will pop up, and the enemy will start to cast Defiant elves.
Move forward as they get closer and swing, timing it so you land the hit
squarely. You have 5 chances here to time your attacks properly.
QUEST: SHIELD TRAINING
Game Directions/Hints:
1. By pulling the R trigger, you activate a shield that reduces most damage
dealt to you by half, rounded down. Shielding costs mana, so use it
carefully.
2. Pull the L trigger to shield yourself from the elf's attack.
3. Pull the L trigger to shield. You must be on your side of the arena and
have mana to shield yourself successfully.
Author's Directions: Just start the match by tapping the L trigger. Then the
computer will summon an Elvish Warrior. Shield it 5 times.
REWARD: Goblin Hero
QUEST: HERO
Game Directions/Hints:
1. Summon your newly earned Goblin Hero to defeat the enemy.
2. Summon as many Goblin Heroes as possible.
3. As soon as you have two mana, summon a Goblin Hero. Keep summoning them
until the enemy is defeated.
Author's Directions:
Simply grab mana, and cast Goblin Hero over and over again.
REWARD: Engulfing Flames
QUEST: DEFIANT ONES
Game Directions/Hints:
1. Cast Engulfing Flames and Goblin Hero to defeat the enemy duelist.
2. Defiant Elves are fairly weak creatures. Both of your spells are capable
of destroying them. Collect mana crystals to increase your maximum mana.
3. You can use your attack by pulling the R trigger to destroy the Defiant
Elves, or keep summoning Goblin Heroes.
Author's Directions:
Just grab the crystal and cast Engulfing Flames. Then summon two Goblin
Heroes and repeatedly cast Engulfing Flames until the quest is finished.
REWARD: Fervor
QUEST: TIME RUNS OUT
Game Directions/Hints:
1. Cast Fervor to defeat the enemy in the allotted time. You have a full
mana bar, so cast quickly!
2. Note that creatures either have haste or do not. So casting two Fervor
enchantments is useless.
3. Summon your creatures close to the center line so they don't have to move
as far to attack the enemy. Fervor will speed up all of your Goblin
Heroes.
4. As soon as you summon 4 Goblin Heroes, cast Fervor to increase their
speed.
Author's Directions:
Just do like the directions say. Stand on the line and cast 4 Goblin Heroes,
then Fervor. You'll have time for 1 Engulfing Flames before you beat him.
REWARD: Raging Goblin
QUEST: ATTACK OF THE ELVES
Game Directions/Hints:
1. Defeat the enemy duelist with all the spells at your command.
2. Use your attack by pulling the R trigger to deal damage to a creature.
Concentrate on using your attack against creatures with one toughness to
conserve mana.
3. Summon Raging Goblin to block the attack of an Elvish Warrior and buy
time to replenish more mana. Also pick up as many mana shards as
possible.
4. To get the upper hand, concentrate only on defense while building mana,
then summon several Raging Goblins at once.
5. A strong defense means summoning creatures only when you have to block
the attackers, and perfecting the timing of your attack.
Author's Directions:
Start by simply gathering crystals. Anytime a defiant elf comes near you,
hit it with your attack. Summon a Raging Goblin every time an Elvish Warrior
comes at you. Use Engulfing Flames to hit the Warrior once, then when it
respawns and comes at you again, it'll have 1 toughness left. Kill it like
you do the Defiants. When you have 7 mana or so, cast Fervor then regen
again. When you pick up the 8th crystal, cast 4 Goblin Heroes on the middle
line. Then just throw a Raging Goblin when you have 1 mana again, and the
quest will finish as they kill the green duelist.
REWARD: Reckless Charge
QUEST: RECKLESS LIFE
Game Directions/Hints:
1. Do whatever it takes to defeat the enemy before time runs out. You have
a full mana bar, so cast quickly! This enemy will shield all oncoming
attacks.
2. Reckless Charge can be cast more than once on a creature to increase its
power even more.
3. Summon one creature, and then cast Reckless Charge on it as many times
as possible. The further back you summon the creature, the more times
you can cast Reckless Charge on it.
Author's Directions:
Start by summoning a Raging Goblin. Then repeatedly give it Reckless Charge.
You can back up at the start of the round to cast the Goblin, and turn it
into a massive 34/1 attacker before it gets to the enemy. However, if you
cast Engulfing Flames right before the Goblin hits the duelist, he won't
shield, making the damage needed to kill him quite a bit less.
REWARD: Goblin Sky Raider
