Can Red have a Parallel Lives for artifacts? If the answer is no(because of creatures), can it for non-creature tokens?

The ability would be blue or white, not red. They both care more about artifacts.

Hey, first congrats on the induction, you really deserve it. Second my question, could blue have a card that doubles all your non creature tokens? Similar to anointed procession or parallel lives.

Maybe it could double your artifact tokens.

Not to dispute your rationale, but out of curiosity, why _does_ green get 'go-wide' effects like chatterfang, parallel lives et al, when phasing those out of green would help establish a more robust mechanical difference bw the two?

Green is number two in going wide. Green/white’s main archetype is going wide. We want it in both colors. There might be places to make more separation, but this one isn’t it.

May I request more cards that increase token production, especially in white? Also, please more reprints of Doubling Season, Parallel Lives, Primal Vigor, and Annointed Procession?

I agree white should be the best at small token creation.

Could you please explain to us why anointed procession and parallel lives were not reprinted in the c19 populate deck? They were needed reprints that were a perfect fit.

There are a lot of factors and restrictions that go into building a fixed deck product. For instance, the inclusion of one card can often keep you from including certain other cards, so a delicate balance has to be reached.

Can you explain how the design of Doubling Season came about and why there have been neutered versions (Parallel Lives and Anointed Procession) being printed instead of reprints?

It came about because it was a card I wanted to have. Luckily, a lot of players felt the way I did. The card, which predates planeswalkers, is too good with loyalty so we’ve made newer versions that capture pieces of it without hitting loyalty.

Was parallel lives a chance at making a standard level doubling season?

It was designed as a tweaked, Standard printable version.

Happy birthday! One time, I battled my brother's Riku of Two Reflections commander deck. He had out Doubling Season and Parallel Lives, and had Riku double-cast Chancellor of the Forge. Over the course of the battle, he proceeded to double-cast Parallel Evolution, then flash it back (and double-cast it again)! By the end, he had out over 6 million goblin tokens! Even with the 200 life I had gained over the course of the battle (with my Zedruu deck), I couldn't hope to win.

A kindred soul. : )

What cards would be in FTV: Doubling? Off the top of my head all I can think of is Doubling Season and Parallel Lives, and those two are almost the same card.

A few off the top of my head: • Furnace of Rath • Chameleon Colossus • Doubling Cube  • Goblin Charbelcher • Kalonian Hydra • Solarian • Beacon of Immortality • Evolution Vat • Game of Chaos • Gratuitous Violence • Inquisitor’s Flail

Mark, I know with Planeswalkers in the mix, Doubling Season being reprinted is a pipe dream for me. I know we got Parallel Lives, but can we see the other side if had a non-planeswalker permanent clause? I just want it for my Thallids

Doubling Season was so popular that I’m sure you’ll see many variants of it over the years.
