When do combat modifiers get discarded? (Also, Doppelganger question)

Second Chance Sparkles from Fairy Dust would allow you to use Doppleganger more than once. In fact I played a game where I got the winning level with some lucky sixes that pumped my combat strength above 200 :)

Oh, indeed, missed that one (I had a vague memory that SCS may have been neutered a little to remove the benefit if it is returned to your hand, so didn't want to mention it until I confirmed whether that had happened or not). I'm also wrong in my understanding of calculating the combat strength of double Dopplegangers apparently. This thread deals with that exact situation and supports it tripling your strength, even though the card says otherwise. I guess it was missed when doing the FAQ updates mentioned.
