Team anthem
Anthems only pump creatures you control — your teammate's board is untouched, so they're worse than they look.

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

Creatures you control gain vigilance and trample until end of turn. Roll a d20. 1—9 | Creatures you control get +2/+2 until end of turn. 10—19 | Put two +1/+1 counters on each creature you control. 20 | Put four +1/+1 counters on each creature you control.
