Tempest Technique

Spells cast from zones other than a player’s hand and spells that were countered or otherwise failed to resolve are counted by the storm ability.

The copies are put directly onto the stack. They aren’t cast and won’t be counted by other spells with storm cast later in the turn.

A resolving copy of a permanent spell becomes a token. That token isn’t “created” and won’t interact with abilities that care about tokens being created.
