How To Register Players For Two-Headed Giant

Two-Headed Giant (2HG) is a team format where pairs of players form teams and play as a single unit. EventLink supports 2HG with tools that make registration and pairing easy.

How to Set Up a Two-Headed Giant Event:

  • When creating a new event in Wizards EventLink, choose Two-Headed Giant as the format.
  • Set the number of rounds and confirm your scheduling preferences.

Registering Players

  • Each player registers individually using:
    • The Magic Companion App
    • Their Wizards Account Email
    • Or the Guest registration feature
  • Once both players from a team are registered, you’ll need to manually assign them to the same team:
    • Select two players from the list.
    • Click the “Create Team” button (or use the right-click/context menu).
    • Repeat for all pairs.

Key Notes

  • Players can’t join as teams via Companion—they must be paired manually in EventLink.
  • Each team will be paired against another team, and results will reflect team performance.
  • Team names default to a combination of the two player names.
