hey guys!i got a Swan Song in my Theros boosting-pack today and i wounder how get's the 2/2 token.
the card says " Counter target enchantment, instant or sorcery spell. Its controller puts a 2/2 Blue Bird creature token with flying onto the battlefield."
are they reffering "the controller" as the controller och Swan Song or the controller of the enchantment/instant/sorcery?
Additionally Epochalyptik will probably move this to Q/A section, as this should be asked there.

Rules questions should be asked in the Q&A. The Custom Cards forum is for player-made or designed cards. I can't move this to the Q&A, so I'll move it to General.
"Its controller" is the controller of the targeted spell. Otherwise it would say "you," which would refer to Swan Song's controller.

And if you got a 2/2 flier and could counter an instant, sorcery or enchantment spell for U that would be WAY overpowered

They are referring to the controller of the enchantment/instant/sorcery. So if your opponent casts something, you counter it with Swan Song they get a token. Same way that if you cast something, and counter your own spell with Swan Song you get a token.
