Loses value in 2HG: poison / infect.
- −8Poison / infect
A 2HG team loses at 15 poison counters rather than 10, so infect clocks are slower than the raw numbers suggest.
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.
