Wizards of the Coast 19 Mar 2021

Any enters-the-battlefield abilities of the copied creature card will trigger when the token enters the battlefield. Any "as [this permanent] enters the battlefield" or "[this permanent] enters the battlefield with" abilities of the copied creature card will also work.

Wizards of the Coast 19 Mar 2021

If another creature becomes a copy of, or enters the battlefield as a copy of the token, that creature will copy the creature card the token is copying, except it will also be an artifact. This is true even if the creature card that was copied by Feldon of the Third Path is no longer in the graveyard at that time. However, the new copy won't gain haste and you won't sacrifice it at the beginning of the next end step.

Wizards of the Coast 19 Mar 2021

If Feldon's ability creates multiple tokens due to a replacement effect (such as the one Doubling Season creates), each of those tokens will gain haste and you'll sacrifice each of them.

Wizards of the Coast 19 Mar 2021

If the copied creature card has {X} in its mana cost, X is 0.

Wizards of the Coast 19 Mar 2021

The token copies exactly what was printed on the original creature card (except that the copy is also an artifact) and nothing else.
