Mimic Vat and Creatures That Go Places
Asked by Ophilias13 9 years ago
Still on the Mimic Vat
s. Assuming a creature that "hits" the graveyard but then goes somewhere else is targeted to be imprinted on a Mimic Vat
, what happens?
Example: Vigor gets killed with a kill spell. It hits graveyard, triggering both it's own ability to be shuffled back into it's owner's deck, and the imprint from Mimic Vat . I'm not 100% sure how order is figured out on this but assuming that the imprint ends up "on top" of the stack for at least 1 occurrence of this sequence of events then Vigor is exiled. Does it then get removed from the exile zone and get shuffled back into the deck, thus making the Mimic Vat useless until something else dies, or is it stuck exiled?

Oh. Thanks. Where can I find the gatherer stuff? I'm rather new to using online resources for Magic. Usually I just look at all the cards for a set and then ask any questions to knowledgeable friends as they arise.

You just go Here and search for the card you are looking for and any official rulings are listed at the bottom of the page. Usually common interactions like the one you asked will have some type of official ruling associated with them.

If Vigor is exiled via Mimic Vat , before it's trigger resolves, then it will not be shuffled.
Make sure you check gatherer, because this is one of the official rulings for Vigor
