    Triggers 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

Punishing Fire deals 2 damage to any target. Whenever an opponent gains life, you may pay {R}. If you do, return this card from your graveyard to your hand.
