In the broader Commander meta, I'd expect to get my board wrathed a few times and end up not doing much of anything, but with Commander precons being relatively light on wraths, simply making big tokens and copying them a bunch of times seems like a pretty easy pathway to winning
But we really should stick to the Q&A format
This is like the majority of activated abilities that need to be on the battlefield in order to be available
For example, if you control this creature and Anointed Procession ("If an effect would create one or more tokens under your control, it creates twice that many of those tokens instead."), each time you create tokens, you can choose to apply Anointed Procession's effect to double those tokens first, then apply this creature's effect to create an additional Thopter token
