Double Major is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
01
Official card text
Copy target creature spell you control, except it isn't legendary if the spell is legendary. (A copy of a creature spell becomes a token.)
How it works : Double Major
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
If a creature spell is copied, it’s put onto the battlefield as a token as the spell resolves rather than putting the copy of the spell onto the battlefield. The rules that apply to a permanent spell becoming a permanent apply to a copy of a spell becoming a token.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
The token that a resolving copy of a spell becomes isn’t said to have been “created.”
No other card is named in this ruling.
