Proliferation

My friend and i played a game. 2 of my permanents got hit by poison counters, and i got poisoned. My friend then used contagious clasp, and proliferate. He said that by proliferating, he added one poison counter to me, and one poison counter each to my creatures again.

I thought proliferate only adds one counter at a time? And not one each to every counter that exist?

701.23a To proliferate means to choose any number of permanents and/or players that have a counter, then give each exactly one additional counter of a kind that permanent or player already has.

Your friend is right. Proliferate lets you add a counter to each of any number of players and/or permanents.
