Magic: The Gathering Comprehensive Rules Changes

Planar Chaos to Future Sight (Single Change View)

General changes

Old rule (Planar Chaos) New rule (Future Sight)

Shared Life Total

The Two-Headed Giant multiplayer variant uses a shared life total. Each two-player team's life total starts at 40, and the team loses if its life total reaches 0. Damage, loss of life, and gaining life happens to each player individually. The result is applied to the team's shared life total. If an effect needs to know the value of any individual player's life total, that effect uses the team's life total divided by the number of players on the team (rounded up) instead. See rule 606, "Two-Headed Giant Variant."
