    Proliferate X times. (To proliferate, choose any number of permanents and/or players, then give each another counter of each kind already there.)

    While proliferating multiple times, players can't respond between proliferating the first time and proliferating the second time, and so on.

    You don't have to choose every permanent or player that has a counter—only the ones you want to add counters to. Since "any number" includes zero, you don't have to choose any permanents at all, and you don't have to choose any players at all.

    If you proliferate multiple times, you don't have to choose the same set of players and/or permanents to get additional counters each time.
