Symmetrical discard
'Each opponent discards' is a two-for-one in 2HG. Syphon Mind and friends jump several tiers here.

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.
