Rulings
- 2009-10-01
The power and toughness of the token are based on the destroyed creature’s last existence on the battlefield. The token doesn’t have any of the destroyed creature’s other characteristics.
- 2009-10-01
You get the token, not the player who controlled the creature.
- 2013-07-01
If the targeted creature has indestructible or regenerates, you won’t get a Vampire token. Similarly, if the targeted creature is destroyed but a replacement effect moves it to a different zone instead of its owner’s graveyard, you won’t get a Vampire token.
