Lich's Mastery rulings

2018-04-27
While you can’t lose the game, your opponents can still win the game if an effect says so.
2018-04-27
While you control Lich’s Mastery, your life total still changes. Lich’s Mastery’s effects don’t replace the life gain or life loss.
2018-04-27
You don’t have to exile all the cards from one place. For example, if a source deals 5 damage to you, you may exile one permanent, two cards from hand, and two cards from your graveyard.
2018-04-27
If you run out of other permanents, cards in hand, and cards in graveyard, you’ll have to exile Lich’s Mastery itself and lose the game.
2018-04-27
If you’re dealt more damage than you have cards to exile, you’ll just exile everything you can.

Lich's Mastery 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.
