DotP 2015 Story
Lore forum
Posted on July 19, 2014, 2:25 p.m. by KindredDiscovery
I don't plan to purchase Duels of the Planeswalkers 2015, but I am interested to know if anything significant happens to Garruk that we haven't already seen in the cards or Uncharted Realms articles. Is there a story line, and does anything important happen in it? Also, are there any new planeswalkers making an appearance? Kiora and Ral Zarek got their start on DotP, and I've got my fingers crossed for a Ramaz someday.

Okay disclaimer out of the way i've owned the game for about 4 days now and I'm already just about done with it.
there are no "set decks" per-say. At least not like in the last games where you would unlock upgrades to the deck in specific order. Instead playing campaign unlocks booster packs for each plain you're in and you use those to build your own deck as you go (though it does start you up with a starter deck of whatever color combination you choose with their own obvious strategies)
The storyline is bassically as Follows :
Hunt garruk through multiple planes learning things about what the veil curse is and does while he hunts you.
You end up fighting Ob nixis, the ex planeswalker who was swallowed by the curse himself and take the hedron from him (that was keeping him at bay) and fight garruk then shove that hedron into him to keep him from destroying entire planes yet by doing so you unleash Ob nixis.
The rest of the game you spend unlocking cards and making different decks but there's not much gameplay to it.
You do these "explore X plane" things that throw random challenges at you which are fun the first few times but get dull fast until the "Explore" takes you to fight one of the 5 walkers of the M15 set. Their decks tend to be BS.
I think that about sums it up

SPOILER ALERT
Avacyn, Guardian Angel hires you, a random Planeswalker to restore Garruk, the Veil-Cursed Flip , since the curse is making him more dangerous as time passes. You go to Theros to check out some Oracle which in turn sends you to Ravnica. There, Jace, the Living Guildpact tells you to go to Zendikar, to retreive a special Hedron that was implanted into Ob Nixilis, the Fallen to bind him. You fight Ob Nixilis and defeat him, extracting the Hedron from him.
Jace then sends you with the Hedron to Shandalar, where The Chain Veil initially was entombed. Garruk, Apex Predator follows you, but you can defeat him, and when you use the Hedron on him, he gets restored to Garruk Wildspeaker .
Meanwhile on Zendikar: Ob Nixilis, Unshackled .
(might not be 100% accurate)

But the hedron is just keeping the curse sealed. Garruk is still a little wacky in the head.

Yeah, he's still not doing very well. Jace said this is just a temporary fix. Perhaps a permanent cure will surface at some point.
Also, could somebody gimme a link to these Uncharted Realms articles? They sound worth a read.

Yes there is a storyline. There's also a twist. Wanna know what it is? No? Too bad! Garruk is Voldemort!
