oh I remember the good old days when we played this with Tawnos Coffin to breed an army, and or a fat Tetravus.

This is quite possibly the coolest card to combo with Doubling Season. Sure, modular creatures may be more effective, but they're not cooler.

So, yeah, you've got 4 Doubling Seasons. You also happen to have Coat of Arms. To make matters worse, you also have 4 paradox hazes on yourself, and, what the heck, 4 of these.

So, the first doubling season changes the 4/4 tetra to a 7/7. The second changes him to a 13/13, the third to a 25/25, the fourth to a 49/49. x2x2x2x2 = x16

Upkeep 1: Stage 1: You get rid of 48 +1/+1s, and in turn get 768 1/1s.
Upkeep 1: Stage 2: You get rid of the 768 1/1s and get 4 12288/12288s.
Upkeep 2: Stage 1: You get rid of +12288/+12288 and get 196608 1/1s.
Upkeep 2: Stage 2: You get rid of the 196608 1/1s and get 4 3145728/3145728s.
Upkeep 3: Stage 1: 50331648 1/1s.
Upkeep 3: Stage 2: Four 805306368/805306368s.
Upkeep 4: Stage 1: 12884901888 1/1s.
Upkeep 4: Stage 2: Four 206158430208/206158430208s.
Upkeep 5: Stage 1: 3298534883328 1/1s. To be precise, there's 13194139533316 1/1s. Of course, there also happens to be Coat of Arms on the field. So there's 13194139533316 13194139533315/13194139533315s.

So, that's 13 trillion 13 trillions. I feel like adding any Berserks or Overwhelming Stampedes would be useless, along with doing a second turn, let alone having a Lighthouse Chronologist. I don't even want to begin to think of what would have happen if they used a Final Fortune

This isn't infinite, this isn't obscenely OP, this isn't obscenely clever, all it does is take a truck, then push it off a very steep, very straight, decline. And then put a couple rockets on the back and launch them.

If I try to read that text off the card, my eyes will bleed.

If the Tetravus is destroyed when the Tetravites are off the card, they are not destroyed, they are just orphaned.

:( poor Tetravites without their parent.

this thing looks like some digimon, or a flying evolution of steelix from pokemon

I like how they were terrified about how confusing enchantments would be with this, and now the Oracle text has to preserve the bizarre no-enchantments clause for Tetravites even though it's obviously silly.

The artifact that the God of the Forge deserves.
