"For game purposes, it will represent a specific card type with attributes that are associated with the chosen card type. For example, a Hero token will need to be generic or unique, human, symbolic or angel, have a brigade, a testament and/or book reference and numeric stats. I fully expect there to be some really cool looking player created tokens in the form of custom cards. Just imagine the possibilities!"
Will Nats participants receive Majestic in addition to Whirlwind? If so, I’m assuming it’s not playable in Nats decks since that would be pretty much the first tournament it’s released in, correct?
No, Majestic Heavens will be for tournaments in the 2018-19 season.
I would like to make some custom "card" tokens too! What happens though if there are multiple tokens representing different card types simultaneously in play? Are all players just supposed to remember what each represents even though they might be dice/keys/etc?

To further clarify Justin's answer (which is accurate) the seasonal promos are available during a 3 month window and are only given out in lieu of the Local or District promo (so no, they are not available at Nationals).I would like to make some custom "card" tokens too!

There's exactly one card that creates tokens right now and it only creates one type of token so I don't think there will be much confusion.

Rapha was the first seasonal promo. Majestic Heavens will be the second.

Yes I'm aware of that, I was wondering more for the overall understanding of tokens as well as I'm sure that we will have more card types in the future for tokens to be. Even now though, say with a 4 player multiplayer game, it could be difficult to remember which lost souls are OT and which are NT if they are all represented by random things.
If you put Humble in Majestic Heavens, do you choose which testament it is, or does it count as both?
You choose, and can choose different testaments for the topdecking and token.
So, as my brothers can attest, I like to sit and mess with Photoshop. Gabe's comment on making custom tokens inspired me, so I tried to mock up a couple.
Note: Not sure if the tokens should have specific references, but it looks nicer in my opinion. Also, pretty sure I have the fonts wrong, but I had to guestimate based on reference pictures and did my best to work from there.
That's a good idea for the LSs. I've just never played a CCG with tokens before so just trying to understand. Thanks! :)It might be worth it to do some research with other games that use tokens. Almost every CCG has some sort of token mechanic. That will answer a lot of your questions.
