How does "instead" interact with effects preceding it?
1. Will it replace just the life gain effect because "instead" looks for a similar, previous effect?
2. Will it replace the "draw a card" effect because it's the last effect before the "instead""
3. Will it replace both/all previous effects because that's just what "instead" does?
Also, if this isn't worded correctly, how should it be worded? tyia

You gain 2 life. Draw a card. Prisma — You gain 6 life instead if there’s three or more colors among cards in your graveyard.
The instead will completely replace the original spell in this case. If you want to replace only a specific part you need to call out what part you are replacing then only the called out part will be replaced.
