Creature — Phyrexian Elf
When this creature enters, incubate 2. (Create an Incubator token with two +1/+1 counters on it and ": Transform this token." It transforms into a 0/0 Phyrexian artifact creature.)
: Transform target Incubator token you control. Double the number of +1/+1 counters on it.

Ruling (1)
- The target Incubator token transforms before its +1/+1 counters are doubled, so anything that cares about +1/+1 counters being placed on a creature will see them being placed on the Phyrexian artifact creature.
