Copies of copies

Having Niko Light of Hope on the field and i use them to make shard tokens into copies of, lets say ruin crab. If i use second harvest to make copies of ruin crab/shard token, do the new copies become shards at end step because of Niko?

Dack Fayden do creatures I own come to my battlefield when their controller leaves the game

If I give away creatures with dack fayden, then one player loses, do my creatures controlled by them go into exile or graveyard or battlefield? I tried looking up similar effects like Bazar trader or Beguiler of Wills but neither mentions this in their oracle text. Another player said exile so that's where I put them because that's what all the other posts say about theft cards

Court of Garenbrig + Doubling Season

Hey gang! I run a +1/+1 counters deck and I have a question about an interaction between two of my keystone cards.

Court of Garenbrig makes me the monarch upon entry, and that's where the question in my pod arose. The first trigger distributes two +1/+1 coutners, then doubles all counters on a creature if I'm the monarch. I'm going to use Doubling Season as an example, but the question also applies to any other doublers I have in my deck.

Does Court of Garenbrig count as two separate triggers for Doubling Season, or is it all one?

The two +1/+1 counters are easy, those become four counters. Neat! But after that, does Doubling Season trigger on the Garenbrig doubling effect?

Using an example of a 1/1 lil guy. If CoG has one trigger:

Court of Garenbrig: 2 +1 counters

Doubling Season: 4 +1 counters

Monarch: Double the counters (4 doubles to 8)

Total: 8 +1/+1 counters, 9/9 Creature

But if Doubling Season sees the "...then double the number of coutners" as a separate thing which will also trigger Doubling Season:

Court of Garenbrig: 2 +1 counters

Doubling Season: 4 +1 counters

Monarch: Double the counters (4 doubles to 8)

Doubling Season: Double the counters again (8 doubles to 16)

Total: 16 +1/+1 counters, 17/17 Creature

As you can see, if "...then if you're the monarch, double the number of +1/+1 counters" is the questionable part here. Is that a separate instance of counters that would proc Doubling Season an additional time? What's the ruling on this?

Thanks!

Avacyn, Angel of Horror and The Reaper, King No More

Had this situation arise in a game and we were unsure of what was supposed to happen.

Player A controls an Avacyn, Angel of Horror that is owned by player B. Player C casts The Reaper, King No More putting a -1/-1 counter on Avacyn and then kills it with another spell. Avacyn would return to player B’s graveyard but then player C chooses to put it under their control. At the beginning of the next end step, does player C keep Avacyn or is there a delayed trigger that would return it to player A’s battlefield because they were the controller when it died?

Seasinger and Shrewd Negotiation

Hi, I’m in a game that has an interaction that I am confused by. This is a multiplayer game.

Player 1 controls [[seasinger]] and has tapped it to steal a creature from player 2 (creature a)

Player 3 casts [[shrewd negotiation]] and exchanges control of an artifact they control with creature A.

The question I have is what happens when player 1 untaps seasinger?

in this case does player 2 regain control of creature A, does the artifact change control or does neither card return to its owner when seasinger gets untapped because they got swapped?

Dack fayden, who gets the first saga creature chapter

I know when felidar guardian enters, I get the blink trigger and the opponent gets the creature, but I think sagas might be different because cr 714.3a says it's controller puts on the lore counter, and by the time dacks ability resolves, I won't be the controller.

But I'm not certain - appreciate any help pointing one way or another
