If a creature enters copying Molten Sentry, that creature's controller flips a coin to see what the copy will be.

If a creature that's already on the battlefield copies Molten Sentry, it becomes a copy of whatever Molten Sentry already is (either a 5/2 creature with haste or a 2/5 creature with defender).
