Backup 3 (When this creature enters, put three +1/+1 counters on target creature. If that's another creature, it gains the following ability until end of turn.) Whenever this creature attacks, look at the top X cards of your library, where X is its power. You may put a permanent card with mana value X or less from among them onto the battlefield. Put the rest on the bottom of your library in a random order.

Rulings (6)

If a backup ability causes another creature to gain abilities, the creature with backup will still have those abilities.

Use the power of the creature as the triggered ability resolves to determine the value of X. If the creature is no longer on the battlefield at that time, use its power from when it was last on the battlefield.

If a permanent enters the battlefield as a copy of a card with a backup ability or a token is created that is a copy of that card, the order of the printed abilities is maintained.
