54/100
Mixed in 2HG — symmetrical lock piece, but incremental lifegain.
- +9Symmetrical lock piece
Stax and tax effects tax two opponents for the price of one, while your team plans around them together.
- −5Incremental lifegain
60 shared life is a bigger pool than 20, so small lifegain is proportionally weaker — and it's the same pool your teammate is spending.
Ratings start at a neutral 50 and are adjusted by rules derived from 2HG's structure — shared 60 life, shared turns, two opponents. They'll be recalibrated against real play rates once teams start submitting decklists.
Oracle text
