Combat fog / damage prevention
You're defending against two attacking players out of one shared life pool. Fog effects buy a full team turn.

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

If an opponent had a green creature enter the battlefield under their control this turn, you may pay {U} rather than pay this spell's mana cost. Tap up to two target creatures. Those creatures don't untap during their controller's next untap step.
