Will manifests with riot enter with haste/counters?

Asked by Yesterday 1 year ago

I was playing on MTGO and controlled a Rhythm of the Wild and an opponent Reality Shifted one of my creatures. My manifested creature entered the battlefield without giving me an option to put a counter on it or give it haste. After the creature was on the battlefield though, the game did indicate that it had riot, so it didn't just discount it as a token.

Is this yet another MTGO programming oversight or am I misunderstanding a ruling?

Programming bug. The manifest had riot when it entered the battlefield and the replacement effect should have have allowed it to enter with a counter or haste.
