does this go infinite
Asked by Hetteshkane 6 years ago
Hello all, Just a quick one if i have the two enchanments Parallel Lives and Anointed Procession does any token production go infinite??
No (and fortunately for you, actually, as infinite loops including mandatory actions cause the game to be a draw).
The only way I can imagine why you would think it does is because they would each "trigger" each other in a circular manner. This does not happen:
614.5. A replacement effect doesnt invoke itself repeatedly; it gets only one opportunity to affect an event or any modified events that may replace it.
Example: A player controls two permanents, each with an ability that reads "If a creature you control would deal damage to a creature or player, it deals double that damage to that creature or player instead." A creature that normally deals 2 damage will deal 8 damage not just 4, and not an infinite amount.

No. These cards establish replacement effects that modify token-creating events. A replacement effect only applies to an event once; it doesn't repeatedly invoke itself and it doesn't trigger in any way.
