Rakdos charm used to be one of those cards to look out for in modern back in the days of splinter twin. If your opponent had that red black open you'd want to make only about 10 copies of your pestermite to swing for lethal without the in response charm. It also meant it was a good idea not to concede to the combo before asking "how many times?" to make them commit to their billion tokens or not even if you didn't have the charm
@austingarrett3334

I remember playing against someone who used a combo like this before. It was in a 4 person match and that guy was kind of an asshole, but his card said "when a creature enters the battlefield put a +1/+1 on creatures you control" and the other said "when a +1/+1 is put on this creature create a 1/1 token" so we proceeded to have him play it out. Because neither effect said "you may" it was a forced effect and he couldn't stop until he either conceded or we agreed to a draw.

@SmokeymcJoint420 in this case, he has a way out of the infinite loop in two ways. One, his card says you may make a token and two, he only puts a single +1/+1 on a creature, so he can choose to put it on one of his tokens to break the cycle.

@@plumcas There are a number of cards that create vampire tokens with lifelink, such as Sorin, Lord of Innistrad, Mavren Fein, Dusk Apostle, or Elenda, the Dusk Rose. My guess as to how they got that amount would be some sort of near infinite mana combo into March of the Canonized, given 200 tokens would be a critical mass to kill one or two other players at the table with enough in reserve to dodge the retaliatory swing, and any slower buildup would probably be board wiped as soon as possible.
