I don't think what you said here was wrong but has been misinterpreted, changing who's controls the 'make' obviously beat other replacements, but then since the next replacement level involves the word "copy*, I think people believe choosing what to copy has to go next.

Sorry, just to jump in on this. For read ahead, is it an effect that adds counters or does it just change how sagas enter (for doubling seasons reasons)? And if a read ahead saga would enter with no chapters, could I choose to put 0 counters on it?

Thank you, I wasn't sure if being created with characteristics was treated the same as gaining characteristics

Eg,
Superior spider-man -> grist = legendary planeswalkers - Grist [hero spider human] [4/4], then given the Luxior he'd be = legendary [planeswalkers] Creature - [Grist] hero spider human 4/4
(With the square brackets being hidden)

In the article written for dominaria's release, you specifically say that under DS sagas enter with 2 counters but turn based actions give 1.
Shouldn't nothing only apply to one of these things. Did something change between then and now?
