    Symmetrical card advantage

    Shared draw feeds two opponents and only one teammate. The math is against you in 2HG.

  • 6
    Duel-shaped card

    Cards that reference 'the opponent' or single-combat framing lose reach when the table has two opponents.

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.
