2HG Rating
73/100
Gains value in 2HG: team-wide edict, triggers off opponents.
Weak in 2HGNeutralFormat staple
- +12Team-wide edict
Forcing both opponents to sacrifice strips two boards for one card — the classic 2HG blowout.
- +11Triggers off opponents
'Whenever an opponent…' fires for two players instead of one, so these triggers pay out roughly twice as often.
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
Menace When this creature enters, each player sacrifices a creature of their choice. Whenever a player sacrifices a permanent, put a +1/+1 counter on this creature.
