Loses value in 2HG: incremental lifegain, duel-shaped card.

    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

Whenever you cast a Spirit or Arcane spell, target opponent loses 1 life and you gain 1 life. Soulshift 2 (When this creature dies, you may return target Spirit card with mana value 2 or less from your graveyard to your hand.)
