Arcane Adaptation

I played Arcane Adaptation in node 2.3 in Battle of the Four Tribes.  I noticed it gave the appropriate four creature types to Lifelink Soldier tokens created by March of the Multitudes, but not to the Vampire tokens created by the round's effects and Legion's Landing.

    Were the Lifelink Soldiers created prior to putting Arcane Adaptation on the board?
    Same question for the Vampire Tokens.
    Arcane Adaptation only gives the appropriate creature types the moment it enters the battlefield to creatures onto the battlefield and creature cards in your hand at that particular moment. Any subsequent creature cards you draw or tokens that are created afterwards will not receive the creature type (unless are reinforcing a stack which already has the appropriate creature types).

    N.B.: Arcane Adaptation should be useless when it comes to fulfilling with tokens any objectives that ask you to summon creatures of a certain type (since the creature type should be granted after the tokens were already created, so the moment they "were summoned" they did not have the appropriate creature type)
