Eldrazi Displacer's ability on a face-down card -- tapped?

Asked by Andromedus 1 year ago

If I use Eldrazi Displacer's ability on a face-down card from, say, Mastery of the Unseen, if it's a permanent it should become a face-up permanent on the battlefield, regardless of whether it's a creature or not.

If it's not a creature, will it still enter the battlefield tapped?

If it is a creature, will it enter the battlefield tapped despite being a completely different kind of creature than the one targeted?

It will enter the battlefield tapped. Eldrazi Displacer's ability isn't written in a way that makes the "ETB tapped" part dependent on any particular quality of the object being returned to the battlefield.
