I'm confused, Marvin copies _activated_abilities, so he doesn't become a prowess creature, right?

[@ReadyAimFire_]

Prowess is triggered ability. According to rules- unlike activated abilities, triggered abilities do not need to be activated- they trigger regardless of players' wishes and are subject to no limitations. So it seems video is wrong, and Marvin wont get prowess.

[@caffeinatedgamers3115]

The rulings for Marvin states that the copies ability must have "[cost]: [effect]. So it does not trigger abilities like prowess.
