    Incremental lifegain

    60 shared life is a bigger pool than 20, so small lifegain is proportionally weaker — and it's the same pool your teammate is spending.

  • −6
    Duel-shaped card

    Cards that reference 'the opponent' or single-combat framing lose reach when the table has two opponents.

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

When this creature enters, surveil 2. Then for each card you put on top of your library, you draw a card and you lose 3 life. Descend 8 — Whenever you draw a card, if there are eight or more permanent cards in your graveyard, target opponent loses 1 life and you gain 1 life.
