    Incremental 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.

  • −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.

Oracle text

Escalate—Discard a card. (Pay this cost for each mode chosen beyond the first.) Choose one or more — • Target opponent reveals their hand. You choose an instant or sorcery card from it. That player discards that card. • Target creature gets -2/-2 until end of turn. • Target opponent loses 2 life and you gain 2 life.
