Wizards of the Coast 1 Feb 2014

Although the tokens enter the battlefield attacking or blocking, they were never declared as attacking or blocking creatures. Abilities that trigger whenever a creature attacks or blocks won't trigger.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Feb 2014

For the first triggered ability, you declare which player, planeswalker, or battle the token is attacking as you put it onto the battlefield. It doesn't have to be the same player or planeswalker Brimaz is attacking.

Wizards of the Coast 1 Feb 2014

If Brimaz somehow blocks two or more creatures (note it can't naturally do this), its last ability will trigger that many times.

A token is a creature or other permanent created by a card, with no card of its own.
