Reaction (Play any time, even before spells and abilities resolve.)
Give a unit -1 
this turn, to a minimum of 1 . Draw 1.
I have a Ravenbloom Student on the board and I haven’t played any spells this turn. What happens when I play Rebuttal targeting my opponent’s Stupefy and pay 
on resolution? After everything resolves, how much will Battering Ram cost? Will my opponent’s Legion abilities be active?
Ravenbloom Student will trigger twice, Battering Ram will cost 
, and your opponent’s Legion abilities will be active.
Ravenbloom Student’s triggered ability checks whether a spell that you control resolves. You gained control of the Stupefy, and it resolved, so you will have triggered Ravenbloom Student’s ability. Battering Ram and Legion, on the other hand, check whether cards were finalized. Although you gained control of Stupefy, you did not finalize it; you got it after it was already finalized by your opponent. Thus, your opponent’s Legion abilities will be active, and Battering Ram will only receive a 
Energy discount.

What about casting Stupefy while I have an empowered Mel, Newly Awakened?
The chosen unit will be given -2 , to a minimum of 1 . If it was 2 , it will become 1 .
In the case of Stupefy, Mel, Newly Awakened replaces the event of Stupefy giving -1 with it giving -2 instead. However, a replacement effect that replaces an event modified by the game effect that generated that event will inherit any of those modifications. In this case, Stupefy modifies the “give -1 ” game action and thus event with “to a minimum of 1 .” The replaced event will inherit the same modification.
