Why not make every token double-sided?  It would be a quick and painless way to double the number of tokens for each set.

Painless? Commissioning art for extra tokens costs money, as does removing ads from the backs of tokens.

Sweet, I really like the art on both sides of that token card. I'll have to get me one of those. 

...And does this mean we'll be seing cards in Avacyn Restored that create double sided tokens??

That's what I assumed when I first saw the article, but I don't think that's the case. Or at least I don't think this will be one of those tokens, if it does happen. But who knows, we'll see.

Probably not... there's no rules text on how to flip the token... I assume it's a one off gimick, although it's a good one, since they can be used in decks that make wolves and decks that make human tokens.  And yeah, the art for both sides is certainly cool.

Unfortunately, there won't even be regular DFCs, let alone tokens. Besides, they would require too much text on the card that produces them. Matt Tabak even told me in twitter.com/tabakrules/status/1829608663...">this tweet that double-faced tokens just don't work in the "structure [they've] put in place."

Just when I tell myself that Im not going to go to FNM, you bring out the DFTs. One more time, then, I guess...

That makes no sense to me.

If they spelled the ability out on the card in full then it would not be allowed in a mono-black Commander deck, but because they used a keyword to save space it is allowed?

Yup, just like you can have Birds of paradise in a mono green deck but not Noble Hierarch . YAY COLOR IDENTITY

I love this description. Like the cows are sponges filled with milk. I can see it all Nick Parks claymation-style with the cow's eyes bugging out momentarily as a giant farmer squeezes it like a squeaky dog toy, and milk shoots out of it.
