Kaya, Intangible Slayer rulings

2023-02-04
For the middle loyalty ability, each opponent in turn order chooses whether or not to scry. Those who do (likely all of them) look at the top card of their library at the same time, then they decide in turn order where their card goes. Each opponent will know the choices of previous players in turn order before making their own choices.
2023-02-04
Except for the listed exceptions, the token copies exactly what was printed on the original permanent and nothing else (unless that permanent is copying something else or it is a token; see below). It doesn't copy whether that creature is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or Auras and Equipment attached to it, and so on.
2023-02-04
If the copied creature has in its mana cost, X is 0.
2023-02-04
If the copied creature is a token, the new token that's created copies the original characteristics of that token as stated by the effect that created that token, with the exceptions noted above.
2023-02-04
If the copied permanent is copying something else, then the token enters the battlefield as whatever that permanent copied, with the exceptions noted above.
2023-02-04
Any enters-the-battlefield abilities of the copied permanent will trigger when the token enters the battlefield. Any "as [this permanent] enters the battlefield" or "[this permanent] enters the battlefield with" abilities of the chosen permanent will also work.
2023-02-04
Kaya's last ability checks to see whether the permanent was an Aura when it last existed on the battlefield, not whether it is an Aura card in exile. For example, if an enchantment creature with the bestow ability (an ability that allows a creature card to be cast as an Aura instead) is an Aura and the target of Kaya's last ability, the ability will not create a copy of it.

Kaya, Intangible Slayer keyword rules

Hexproof Rule 702.11

Hexproof is a static ability.

“Hexproof” on a permanent means “This permanent can’t be the target of spells or abilities your opponents control.”

“Hexproof” on a player means “You can’t be the target of spells or abilities your opponents control.”

“Hexproof from [quality]” is a variant of the hexproof ability. “Hexproof from [quality]” on a permanent means “This permanent can’t be the target of [quality] spells your opponents control or abilities your opponents control from [quality] sources.” A “hexproof from [quality]” ability is a hexproof ability.

Any effect that causes an object to lose hexproof will cause an object to lose all “hexproof from [quality]” abilities. Any effect that allows a player to choose a creature with hexproof as a target as though it didn’t have hexproof will allow a player to choose a creature with a “hexproof from [quality]” ability. Any effect that looks for a card with hexproof will find a card with a “hexproof from [quality]” ability.

“Hexproof from [quality A] and from [quality B]” is shorthand for “hexproof from [quality A]” and “hexproof from [quality B]”; it behaves as two separate hexproof abilities.

“Hexproof from each [characteristic]” is shorthand for “hexproof from [quality A],” “hexproof from [quality B],” and so on for each possible quality the listed characteristic could have; it behaves as multiple separate hexproof abilities.

Multiple instances of the same hexproof ability on the same permanent or player are redundant.

Scry Rule 701.18

To “scry N” means to look at the top N cards of your library, then put any number of them on the bottom of your library in any order and the rest on top of your library in any order.

If a player is instructed to scry 0, no scry event occurs. Abilities that trigger whenever a player scries won’t trigger.

If multiple players scry at once, each of those players looks at the top cards of their library at the same time. Those players decide in APNAP order (see rule ) where to put those cards, then those cards move at the same time.

An ability that triggers whenever a player scries triggers after the process described in rule is complete, even if some or all of those actions were impossible.
