Do teams have combined turns in Magic The Gathering?

Nope, teams don't exactly have 'combined' turns in the traditional sense in MTG. When playing in team formats like Two-Headed Giant, each team takes their turn together, meaning both players on a team go through the phases of a turn simultaneously rather than one after the other. But it's not like they merge into a single über-player; each teammate still makes their own decisions, plays their own cards, and manages their own resources.

Short answer: No. In team games, you don't mush your turns into one. You share a turn, but you're still playing your own game, just at the same time as your buddy.

Actually, having 'combined turns' in MTG can make strategic sense in team formats, but there's a distinction. Each player on the team has their own actions to perform, but those actions are performed within the team's single turn. So, while players don't have independent turns as in a one-on-one match, their actions are sequenced together within each phase of their shared turn.
