Nascent Metamorph

Nascent Metamorph

{1}{U}Creature — Shapeshifter1/1

Whenever this creature attacks or blocks, target opponent reveals cards from the top of their library until they reveal a creature card. This creature becomes a copy of that card until end of turn. Then that player puts all cards revealed this way on the bottom of their library in a random order.

Official rulings

  1. If Nascent Metamorph becomes a copy of a legendary card with the same name as a legendary permanent you control, you'll put one of them into its owner's graveyard. (2020-04-17)
  2. If the target opponent has no creature cards in their library, Nascent Metamorph doesn't become a copy of anything. The cards are returned to that library in a random order. (2020-04-17)
  3. If Nascent Metamorph becomes a copy of an object with a set of linked abilities (for example, one ability that exiles a card and another that refers to the card "exiled with" the object), that link only lasts as long as Nascent Metamorph is copying that object. If it stops being a copy of that object and then becomes a copy again later, the link is lost. (2020-04-17)
  4. The creature card that Nascent Metamorph becomes a copy of is put onto the bottom of the library along with any other cards. (2020-04-17)
  5. If another permanent becomes a copy of Nascent Metamorph, it will become whatever Nascent Metamorph is copying. It remains a copy when Nascent Metamorph's effect ends. (2020-04-17)
  6. If an effect begins to apply to Nascent Metamorph before it becomes a copy, that effect will continue to apply. (2020-04-17)
