Ruling (1)
- Everything that is specified by the effect creating the original token or tokens will also be true about the additional token or tokens created by Elspeth’s replacement effect. For example, if an effect tells you to create a token “tapped and attacking,” the additional tokens will also be tapped and attacking.
