Thunder Brute
Creature — Cyclops
Trample
Tribute 3 (As this creature enters, an opponent of your choice may put three +1/+1 counters on it.)
When this creature enters, if tribute wasn't paid, it gains haste until end of turn.
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 creature’s controller.

If the triggered ability has a target, that target will not be known while the creature spell with tribute is on the stack.

The choice of whether to pay tribute is made as the creature with tribute is entering the battlefield. At that point, it’s too late to respond to the creature spell. For example, in a multiplayer game, opponents won’t 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.
