616.1. If two or more replacement and/or prevention effects are attempting to modify the way an event
affects an object or player, the affected object’s controller (or its owner if it has no controller) or the
affected player chooses one to apply, following the steps listed below. If two or more players have
to make these choices at the same time, choices are made in APNAP order (see rule 101.4).
616.1a If any of the replacement and/or prevention effects are self-replacement effects (see rule
614.15), one of them must be chosen. If not, proceed to rule 616.1b.
616.1b If any of the replacement and/or prevention effects would modify under whose control an
object would enter the battlefield, one of them must be chosen. If not, proceed to rule 616.1c.
616.1c If any of the replacement and/or prevention effects would cause an object to become a copy
of another object as it enters the battlefield, one of them must be chosen. If not, proceed to rule
616.1d.
616.1d Any of the applicable replacement and/or prevention effects may be chosen.
616.1e Once the chosen effect has been applied, this process is repeated (taking into account only
replacement or prevention effects that would now be applicable) until there are no more left to
apply.
616.1f While following the steps in 616.1a–d, one replacement or prevention effect may apply to an
event, and another may apply to an event contained within the first event. In this case, the
second effect can’t be chosen until after the first effect has been chosen.

616.2. A replacement or prevention effect can become applicable to an event as the result of another
replacement or prevention effect that modifies the event
