Rulings (5)
wotc4 Apr 2025
A copy of a spell can be countered like any other spell, but it must be countered individually. Countering a spell with storm won’t affect the copies.
wotc4 Apr 2025
The copies are put directly onto the stack. They aren’t cast and won’t be counted by other spells with storm cast later in the turn.
wotc4 Apr 2025
A resolving copy of a permanent spell becomes a token. That token isn’t “created” and won’t interact with abilities that care about tokens being created.
wotc4 Apr 2025
Spells cast from zones other than a player’s hand and spells that were countered or otherwise failed to resolve are counted by the storm ability.
wotc4 Apr 2025
The triggered ability that creates the copies can itself be countered by anything that can counter a triggered ability. If it is countered, no copies will be put onto the stack.
