Bifurcate

Sorcery

Search your library for a creature card with the same name as target creature and put that card into play. Then shuffle your library.

Dichotomancy Bifurcate Clarion Ultimatum i just love these kinds of "same name" cards.

As long as you control exactly two permanents with the same name, the legend rule doesn't apply to those permanents.

+1 Target creature becomes a copy of target creature you control. Repeat this process once.

-2 Return target creature card from your graveyard to the battlefield if it has the same name as a creature card on the battlefield.

-5 For each permanent each player controls, that player may search their library for a card that has the same name as that permanent and put it onto the battlefield. Shuffle your library.

Keep it going!

thats because wail there's only a 6.6% chance of getting a Biovisionary out of the deck, spy kit allows me to use cards like Bifurcate, Mitotic Manipulation, an Retraced Image, without actually needing to have drawn one in the opening hand, making a more consistent deck all around. also i decided against clone because its slower than whats currently in the deck, it was going in until i found Phyrexian Metamorph which is one mana faster.

Spy Kit can take advantage of Bifurcate, Retraced Image(when a B. is in your hand), and even Mask of the Mimic

Just want to chime in to point out that Bifurcate is terrible in this deck. On 12 of your creatures it does nothing. It conflicts with creatures using x and 1- or 2-ofs. Use some Rampant Growth instead.

1) Mask of the Mimic has to target a nontoken creature, so you'd have to Clone the token to get Splinter. Doable, but pointless. Once you find the card, you'll attempt to put it onto the battlefield, fail, and instead leave it in your library because of the following:

307.4

Sorceries cant enter the battlefield. If a sorcery would enter the battlefield, it remains in its previous zone instead.

2) Yes

3) Depends. For Pack Hunt, yes. Retraced Image is subject to 307.4. And Bifurcate's Oracle Text says "Permanent Card," as well as "nontoken creature."

4) Sure, but Eradicate would let you use any (nonblack) creature token rather than an artifact creature.

I've been doing a bit of research around Spy Kit seeing if what token "names" it can actually create. I was surprised to find it had a few! Such as the Crib Swap token has the same name as Shapeshifter and Urza's Factory and Assembly-Worker.

So the following questions all have to do with these "token names" and creature names, cause I'm not sure how many of these play out!

1) Does using Mask of the Mimic allow me to tutor out ANY card with the same name, such as Splinter from a token from Splintering Wind?

2) if I cast Runed Halo naming "Shapeshifter", it would give me protection from the terrifying Shapeshifter AND the token made from Crib Swap?

3) Cards like Pack Hunt, Retraced Image and Bifurcate do not card about card type, just name. So using them on a Spinter token from Splintering Wind means I can search for Splinter?

4) And finally, if I was to Donate any artifact creature or artifact token with Spy Kit equipped on it, then use Splinter on it. Does it exile ALL their creatures (non-legends) in the deck, hand and graveyard??
