Does inkshield create the Inkling tokens as one event or many? The wording is “For each 1 damage prevented this way” which makes me think it would be multiple token creation events, each creating 1 inkling, and thus with an effect such as Took out, would also create that number of food. Since each single creation can be replaced with inkling+food.

The alternative wording would be something like “Whenever damage is prevented this way, create that many” which would make it one creation event in my mind, but I want to see if anyone else has input or thoughts.

    This is the text for Inkshield for context:

    Prevent all combat damage that would be dealt to you this turn. For each 1 damage prevented this way, create a 2/1 white and black Inkling creature token with flying.

    Not a judge, but I’d imagine it works the way you described. The way it’s worded implies that it’s multiple events creating tokens, once per damage prevented. Since you’re creating 1 token multiple times, you apply the replacement to each event.

    Would be curious to hear a judge’s take on this though.
