    EDHREC Rank #5,062
    Put target creature card from a graveyard onto the battlefield under your control. Proliferate. (Choose any number of permanents and/or players, then give each another counter of each kind already there.)

    The first rebirth is a reward. The fifty-first is a punishment.

    Rulings (6)

    If a permanent ever has both +1/+1 counters and -1/-1 counters on it at the same time, they're removed in pairs as a state-based action so that the permanent has only one of those kinds of counters on it.

    If a player or permanent has more than one kind of counter on it, and you choose for it to get additional counters, it must get one of each kind of counter it already has. You can't have it get just one kind of counter it already has and not the others.

    You don't have to choose every permanent or player that has a counter, only the ones you want to add another counter 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.
