    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.

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

As an additional cost to cast this spell, sacrifice a creature. Create X 1/1 black and green Pest creature tokens with "When this token dies, you gain 1 life," where X is the sacrificed creature's power.
