A very lovely Johnny card.
It's even more interesting since it can deal with loyality counters on Planeswalkers. Ajani Goldmane and Sarkhan Vol are currently the most fun fellows for this card - two Serra Avatar tokens or eight 4/4 Dragon flyers and my Planeswalker stays on the field with 2 loyality counters nonetheless? Yes, please.
And already before those got introduced, you had fun times playing this card with other counter and/or token heavy cards, such as Pentavus, Sekki, Seasons' Guide or Lightning Coils.
Cards dealing with Charge Counters also do fine with this enchantment, such as Darksteel Reactor, although i wouldn't advise playing these in a general Doubling Season deck.
Simple token generating spells like Beacon of Creation or Call of the Herd also do a job, as well... (see all)

Can anybody say "Hydra?" especially Apocalypse Hydra, which can become a monstrous 20/20 creature for only seven mana.

Actually bad when involving -1 counters on creatures you control.
5/5

Combos with combos.
As a side note, there are indeed cards that don't combo with this. Devoted Druid comes to mind.
@Ferlord: I don't see "may" anywhere on here. All I see is "instead". Looks mandatory to me.

Doubling Season, Cradle of Vitality, Wall of Reverence, Ageless Entity, Armadillo Cloak = Death
Mix with whatever token generators you wish throw in a few Soul's Grace to rub salt in the wound if you like and have fun!

This, more then anything else, needs to be reprinted.

Is anyone else scared of this card?
I mean there are so many things that it works well with.
Cradle of vitality
Any Planeswalker
Mycoloth
Any Devour
If you can manage to keep it on the field for a turn that is >.>
Quickest I've seen so far is Pentavus, with all the Naya cards that play cards without their mana cost, you could have Pentavus as a 20/20 creature by its second turn on the field easy.

Great card for tokins or in a combo with Clockspinning.

honestly, i hate this and intruder alarm. being a johny, id slap you if you said hey look at the combo i made with... idk it takes no thought, and works well with a lot of cards, but in an overly obvious, and already public way. Good if you like to be annoying i guess, but i only praise johnies who are original

@ LouisianaxLimey:
I'm pretty sure this won't add anything extra to Solarion, as its effect is just to double its counters, and doesn't place any counters on it. Then again, I could be wrong... It will double the counters from it sunburst though.
This card would be awesome in a Modular deck, even more so if you can get 2+ on the field :D
