Inspirited Vanguard 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.
Official card text
Whenever this creature enters or attacks, it endures 2. (Put two +1/+1 counters on it or create a 2/2 white Spirit creature token.)
How it works : Inspirited Vanguard
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
You choose whether to put +1/+1 counters on the creature or create a Spirit token as the ability that includes the endure instruction is resolving. No player may take actions between the time you choose and the time that counters are added or tokens are created.

- #2· Wizards of the Coast
If you can’t put +1/+1 counters on the creature for any reason as an endure ability resolves (for example, if the creature is no longer on the battlefield), you’ll just create a Spirit token.

- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If a noncreature permanent is instructed to endure, the effect is the same. You can put +1/+1 counters on that permanent or create a Spirit token.
