58/100

Gains value in 2HG: protects a teammate.

Protects a teammate
'Target player' and 'target permanent' effects can be aimed at your teammate — you can't do that in a duel.

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

Target creature you control gets +X/+X and gains hexproof and indestructible until end of turn. (It can't be the target of spells or abilities your opponents control. Damage and effects that say "destroy" don't destroy it.)

Plays well beside it

Shares the "protects a teammate" axis — good candidates for your teammate's deck.

Suggestions are characteristic-based for now. Once teams submit pairings, this becomes a real co-occurrence score: played in X% of teams whose partner deck runs Tyvar's Stand.
