I just had the most epic Planechase game yet. I used Ajani's Celestial Light to win the first 3 campaign games on Planeswalker difficulty (each time with Felidar Sovereign ), and on the fourth and final the other Ajani and I quickly took out Nicol and Yeva. I took a few too many hits with a Celestial Mantle and he was up to a few thousand life, so I figured if I was going to win I would need to deck him. When it came down to it we each had a Soul Warden Ajani's Pridemate combo online and we each were casting White Sun's Zenith on each other's turn with >20 lands. It seemed like the game would go on indefinitely since we were both gaining so much life, had blockers to spare, and couldn't be decked thanks to WSZ. Then out of nowhere I planeswalked to Norn's Dominion just long enough to destroy all creatures before heading to Grove of the Dreampods where I immediately rolled chaos to pull my Sovereign out of the yard and win my next turn. I'll probably never feel like playing Planechase mode online (or ever want to play it with or against Celestial Light), but it was fun for a single-player diversion.

I love ridiculous endings in this mode. Decided to play a 3 player FFA planechase game with Obedient Dead and ended up facing off versus Ancient Wilds and Born to Flame. Nothing exciting for the beginnings of the match, mostly board clears between the red player and myself. The game eventually hit a self imposed clock, as a Nephalia began draining our libraries most of the game. Some time later, we finally get lucky and hit the planeswalk. This is what the game decides to throw at us. Hopefully I get all the details right for the following events. It was a lot of information to process at once.

Nephalia -> Chaotic AEther -> Morphic Tide -> Mutual Epiphany -> Jund

We were just anticipating what plane we might run into after the Chaotic AEther hit, as the Born to Flame player was the active player with a lot of mana left open. A nasty plane could just crush everyone else. Instead, Morphic Tide comes up and we all just start pausing, unsure what we should do. No one really has a clue what's really in their libraries anymore because Nephalia wrecked us pretty hard, so we're all doing a quick count of what we're missing before we proceed.

After a brief look, we decided to finally let the chaos of that resolve and then Mutual Epiphany explodes at us on screen and everyone is just barely caught up with what happened to the board due to Morphic Tide. Fortunately for me, I was blessed with my two Underworld Dreams , Nekrataal , and Rune-Scarred Demon and a bunch of land. My opponents drew into a bunch of land as well, Ancient Wilds mostly hitting weenies like Fauna Shaman , Wood Elves , some Roaring Primadox and a Pelakka Wurm , whereas Born to Flame gets Magma Phoenix , both Chandra's Phoenix , and a Hostility .

So seeing as we're all about to draw 4 cards, and my opponents are going to take 8 thanks to my Underworld Dreams, Born to Flame takes this opportunity to try and win the game. I end up targeting Hostility with my Nekrataal and burn starts flying from the hand. Elemental tokens are just being massed and when that stops, I decide to Murder the Magma Phoenix, undoing all that work and putting everyone at quite low lifetotals.

While all of this happened so fast, the best part of it all... I'm up next and Rune-Scarred Demon just fetched me a lethal Exsanguinate . GG.

Im so happy to see others enjoying this mode of play.  I figured if its 20 bucks for a single deck of cards, why not play for 10 bucks and play with 10 decks on DotP!
