2p kitchen table formats? (self.mtg)

I'm still somewhat new to MtG, and have mainly played commander, along with a bit of modern which was a little too intense for me. What are some good formats to look into for kitchen table, 2 player mtg with my wife? Commander is great but tends to want a 4 player format.

Bear in mind we'd rather not buy new cards, but used cards and proxies are fine, got no major price constraints since I'm happy to print up a card if it's going to be too hard to find.

You can also play 1v1 commander with unmodified commander decks, but you need to go into it knowing that some things will be pretty broken while some others just won't work at all. I do this pretty regularly with my fiancee when we just want to jam a few games or if I want to test a deck.
