Official Rulings (6)
For effects that check which player put counters on the entering creature, the player chosen to pay tribute puts those counters on it, not the creatureβs controller.
If the triggered ability has a target, that target will not be known while the creature spell with tribute is on the stack.
If the opponent pays tribute, the creature will enter the battlefield with the specified number of +1/+1 counters on it. It wonβt enter the battlefield and then have the +1/+1 counters placed on it.
Players canβt respond to the tribute decision before the creature enters the battlefield. That is, if the opponent doesnβt pay tribute, the triggered ability will trigger before any player has a chance to remove the creature.
The triggered ability will resolve even if the creature with tribute isnβt on the battlefield at that time.
The choice of whether to pay tribute is made as the creature with tribute is entering the battlefield. At that point, itβs too late to respond to the creature spell. For example, in a multiplayer game, opponents wonβt know whether tribute will be paid or which opponent will be chosen to pay tribute or not when deciding whether to counter the creature spell.
