If the creature that died had -1/-1 counters on it when it died, Reluctant Role Model's last ability will include those as well. This may result in the target creature also dying.
wotc20 Sept 2024
Reluctant Role Model's last ability doesn't cause you to move counters from the creature that died onto the target creature. Rather, you put the same number of each kind of counter the creature that died had when it died onto the target creature. Other effects that interact with putting counters onto that creature will interact with this effect accordingly.
wotc20 Sept 2024
In some unusual cases, you may end up putting the appropriate counters on more than one permanent. For example, if you control The Ozolith when Reluctant Role Model dies, you'll put the appropriate number of each kind of counter onto both The Ozolith and the target creature.
wotc20 Sept 2024
If Reluctant Role Model dies at the same time as one or more other creatures with counters on them, its last ability will trigger for each of those creatures.
wotc20 Sept 2024
Survival abilities (and other abilities that trigger at the beginning of your second main phase) will trigger at the beginning of the second main phase you take in a turn. They won't trigger during your third, fourth, or other additional main phases in a single turn, if effects somehow cause you to have more than two main phases.
wotc20 Sept 2024
If a creature with a survival ability isn't tapped when your second main phase begins, the ability won't trigger at all. You won't be able to tap it during your second main phase in time to have that ability trigger.
