For Invasion of Alara's triggered ability, if you exile two nonland cards with mana value 4 or less, but you don't cast one of them, the one you don't put into your hand will remain in exile. It won't be put on the bottom of your library.
wotc · 2023-04-14
If you exile only one nonland card with mana value 4 or less, you'll have the option to cast it. If you don't, you'll put it into your hand.
wotc · 2023-04-14
If you cast a spell without paying its mana cost, you can't choose to cast it for any alternative costs. You can, however, pay any additional costs. If the spell has any mandatory additional costs, you must pay those.

If the spell has {X} in its mana cost, you must choose 0 as the value of X when casting it without paying its mana cost.

Awaken the Maelstrom has two targets: the player who will draw cards and the permanent an opponent controls that will be destroyed. You must choose legal targets for both to cast Awaken the Maelstrom. All other choices are made on resolution. Specifically, this means you can create a token that's a copy of the artifact you just put onto the battlefield (which perhaps you just drew) and then put +1/+1 counters on it if it's also a creature.
wotc · 2023-04-14
The token copies exactly what was printed on the original permanent and nothing else (unless that permanent is copying something else or is a token; see below). It doesn't copy whether that permanent is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or Auras and Equipment attached to it, or any non-copy effects that have changed its power, toughness, types, color, and so on.
wotc · 2023-04-14
If the copied permanent has {X} in its mana cost, X is 0.
wotc · 2023-04-14
If the copied permanent is a token, the token that's created copies the original characteristics of that token as stated by the effect that created that token.
wotc · 2023-04-14
If the copied permanent is copying something else, then the token enters the battlefield as whatever that permanent copied.
wotc · 2023-04-14
Any enters-the-battlefield abilities of the copied permanent will trigger when the token enters the battlefield. Any "as [this permanent] enters the battlefield" or "[this permanent] enters the battlefield with" abilities of the copied permanent will also work.
wotc · 2023-04-14
Sieges each have an intrinsic triggered ability. That ability is "When the last defense counter is removed from this permanent, exile it, then you may cast it transformed without paying its mana cost."

As a Siege enters the battlefield, its controller chooses an opponent to be its protector.
