Q:I was wondering the effects of "Double X" stacking. Like, if I had two parallel lives out, and an effect caused me to put 2 tokens in, would I get 6, or would the first make the 2 double to 4, and then the other double that to 8. Or let's say Gisela and curse of bloodletting. If I deal 7 damage, does it go from 7 to 14 to 28, or 7 to 14 to 21?
Any doubling effect will be exponential if you have more than one. So:
- (1) * 2 = 2
- (2 * 2) = 4
- (2 * 2 * 2) = 8
- (2 * 2 * 2 * 2) = 16
With two Parallel Lives out, if you would get two tokens you would get eight instead. Gisela, Blade of Goldnight and Curse of Bloodletting would make your opponent take four times as much damage. So 7 * 4 = 28.
Q:With parelle lives do they stack. Say if I use gaurucks ability to make a token and have 2parrelle lives out doesit make for?etc
It’s exponential. It’s exponential. You get four.
Q:trying to get this straight in my head, if i have multiple instances of parallel lives out with my token producers. Is the effect exponential of some sort or does each enchanment activate separatly or someting?
It’s exponential.
Q:Stop me if you've heard this one before, but: You have a parallel lives and a doubling season (or two parallel lives, or two doubling seasons) you use an effect that normally would generate one token, how many tokens would you get 3 or 4 or some other number?
From Doubling Season’s rulings:
10/1/2005: If there are two Doubling Seasons on the battlefield, then the number of tokens or counters is four times the original number. If there are three on the battlefield, then the number of tokens or counters is eight times the original number.
