Shortcut for producing tokens
During my last PTQ I faced a scenario in which two players were unclear about the board state.
Player A was at 15 Life Player B at 20.
B had activated a Kiki Jiki-Mirror Breaker on his Restauration Angel and said very fast, “Angel, Angel, Angel, Angel”,
He claimed he had than declared the original Angel + the 4 Tokens (that were not represented by either Dice or Cards) as attackers, to which Player A reacted with a Rakdos Charm (Every Creature deals 1 to it's controller) claimind B was now dead.
It was tough figuring out what had happened, and I finally decided to rule there were “a million” Angels in Play, because B's story seemed less consistent and made up when he realised his mistake.
I don't want to discuss about a potential DQ but rather suggest the following Shortcut.
If a player repeatededly “copies” a card or spell without visual representation and without stating a certain number, he has chosen a VERY BIG number.
I know that this is not a very fortunate wording, but maybe we can discuss it. Here “saying ”card, card, card, …" is oftenly used to let the opponent know you produce a billion..
