Description
Elspeth vs. Tezzeret features two cards with alternate art and holographic foil treatment; Elspeth, Knight-Errant and Tezzeret the Seeker. Furthermore, the set includes another four cards with alternate art; Crusade, Mishra's Factory, Swords to Plowshares, and Thirst for Knowledge.
In addition to this, the Duel Deck contains a Magic "learn to play" guide, a strategy inset, and three copies of the 
1/1 Soldier creature token, which is created by Elspeth, Knight Errant and Raise the Alarm.
Storyline
The previous planeswalker-based duel decks (Duel Decks: Jace vs. Chandra and Duel Decks: Garruk vs. Liliana) both were released subsequent to the respective battles between the planeswalkers being portrayed in webcomics.
There has been no webcomic depicting a battle between Elspeth and Tezzeret as yet; however, both planeswalkers played a role in the storyline of Scars of Mirrodin block.
