What is 2-Headed Giant? #
Play, plan, and battle as a team.
- Each two-player team shares a life total.
- Each two-player team takes their turn simultaneously.
- The team does not share any other resources other than life.
For instance, any reference to "you" on a card still applies to the individual holder.
Effects that read "each opponent" or "each player", however, affect each team member separately.
Players can block any creature(s) that are attacking them, their teammates or Planeswalkers their team controls.
Each player's deck should be a legal Commander deck by itself.
Kaiju Commander rules - full rules here #
Kaiju Commander is a custom Magic: The Gathering format built for big plays, dramatic turns, and a test of threat assessment—without the cheesy, instant-win combos.
It’s still Commander: 100-card decks, one copy of each card (except basics), and a legendary creature leading your army. But Kaiju adds a few important rules:
❌ No infinite combos. If your deck tries to "go infinite", it’s not allowed.
❌ “You win the game” effects don’t work. You’ve got to win the old-fashioned way—combat, spells, or grinding it out.
❌ No “hard lock” strategies. Don’t bring decks that try to deny everyone’s agency to play the game without any outs.
✅ Explosive turns are still welcome—as long as they’re fair and fun.
