Copy while Sneaking
I've searched all over and haven't found this exact scenario addressed.
What happens to a token copy created off of a crearure cast using Sneak?
For a specific scenario:
- I have [[The Sixth Doctor]]
- I have [[Romana II]]
- The first historic spell cast during my turn is a Legendary Creature with Sneak (returning an unblocked attacker to my hand, and having the creature enter play tapped and attacking). The casting is not countered.
My questions:
- Does the Sixth Doctor Trigger immediately, before the damage step, and create a non-legendary token copy?
- Is the token copy created by The Sixth Doctor also tapped and attacking?
- Does the token count as being cast for it's sneak cost? (For triggered effects)
- Am I able to use Romana's ability to create a copy of the token before the damage step?
- Would the copy of the copy also be tapped and attacking?
- Would the copy of the copy count as being cast for it's sneak cost?
My assumptions are:
- Yes
- No
- No
- Yes
- No
- No
