With two or more applicable replacemrnte and/or prevention effects, the affected player or the controller of the affected perment is the one choosing one to apply, applies it, then chooses the next one from all that are now/still applicable, applies it, etc., until none are applicable anymore. Since here damage gets replaced/prevented, whatever effect is chosen first, the other becomes inapplicable. The player can choosw to prevent the damage, and Soul-Scsar mage has no damage left to replace with -1/-1 counters. Likewise, the player COULD choose Soul-Scar Mage first, and then -1/-1 counters would get placed becasue there is no damage left to prevent. The crux is, it is the affected player who chooses, not the one controlling the damage source.
