Forcing both opponents to sacrifice strips two boards for one card — the classic 2HG blowout.

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.
