Tamiyo, Inquisitive Student // Tamiyo, Seasoned Scholar rulings

2024-06-07
In some rare cases, a spell or ability may cause Tamiyo, Inquisitive Student to transform while she's a creature (front face up) on the battlefield. If this happens, Tamiyo, Seasoned Scholar won't have any loyalty counters on her and will subsequently be put into her owner's graveyard.
2024-06-07
You can activate one of Tamiyo, Seasoned Scholar's loyalty abilities the turn she enters the battlefield. However, you may do so only during one of your main phases when the stack is empty. For example, if Tamiyo, Seasoned Scholar enters the battlefield during combat, there will be an opportunity for your opponent to remove her before you can activate one of her abilities.
2024-06-07
If multiple effects modify your hand size, apply them in timestamp order. For example, if you put Necrodominance (an enchantment that says your maximum hand size is five) onto the battlefield and then activate Tamiyo, Seasoned Scholar's last ability, you'll have no maximum hand size. However, if the emblem from Tamiyo, Seasoned Scholar's last ability was created before you put Necrodominance onto the battlefield, your maximum hand size would be five.
2024-06-07
Each face of a transforming double-faced card has its own set of characteristics: name, types, subtypes, abilities, and so on. While a transforming double-faced permanent is on the battlefield, consider only the characteristics of the face that's currently up. The other set of characteristics is ignored.
2024-06-07
Each transforming double-faced card in this set is cast with its front face up. In every zone other than the battlefield, consider only the characteristics of its front face. If it is on the battlefield, consider only the characteristics of the face that's up; the other face's characteristics are ignored.
2024-06-07
The mana value of a transforming double-faced card is the mana value of its front face, no matter which face is up.
2024-06-07
The back face of a transforming double-faced card usually has a color indicator that defines its color. Colorless back faces, such as lands, do not.
2024-06-07
In the Commander variant, a double-faced card's color identity is determined by the mana costs and mana symbols in the rules text of both faces combined. If either face has a color indicator or basic land type, those are also considered. For example, Ral, Monsoon Mage's color identity is blue and red, since its front face is red and its back face has a blue and red color indicator.
2024-06-07
A transforming double-faced card enters the battlefield with its front face up by default, unless a spell or ability instructs you to put it onto the battlefield transformed or allows you to cast it transformed, in which case it enters with its back face up.
2024-06-07
If you are instructed to put a card that isn't a double-faced card onto the battlefield transformed, it will not enter the battlefield at all. In that case, it stays in the zone it was previously in. For example, if a single-faced card is a copy of Ral, Monsoon Mage, choosing to exile that permanent during the resolution of its triggered ability will cause it to remain in exile.

Tamiyo, Inquisitive Student // Tamiyo, Seasoned Scholar keyword rules

Flying Rule 702.9

Flying is an evasion ability.

A creature with flying can’t be blocked except by creatures with flying and/or reach. A creature with flying can block a creature with or without flying. (See rule , “Declare Blockers Step,” and rule , “Reach.”)

Multiple instances of flying on the same creature are redundant.

Investigate Rule 701.36

“Investigate” means “Create a Clue token.” See rule .

Transform Rule 701.28

To transform a permanent, turn it over so that its other face is up. Only transforming tokens and permanents represented by transforming double-faced cards can transform. (See rule , “Double-Faced Cards.”)

Although transforming a permanent uses the same physical action as turning a permanent face up or face down, they are different game actions. Abilities that trigger when a permanent is turned face down won’t trigger when that permanent transforms, and so on.

If a spell or ability instructs a player to transform a permanent that isn’t represented by a transforming token or a transforming double-faced card, nothing happens.

If a spell or ability instructs a player to transform a permanent, and the face that permanent would transform into is represented by an instant or sorcery card face, or is a transforming token that was created with an instant or sorcery face, nothing happens.

Some triggered abilities trigger when an object “transforms into” an object with a specified characteristic. Such an ability triggers if the object either transforms or converts (see rule ) and has the specified characteristic immediately after it does so.

If an activated or triggered ability of a permanent that isn’t a delayed triggered ability of that permanent tries to transform it, the permanent does so only if it hasn’t transformed or converted since the ability was put onto the stack. If a delayed triggered ability of a permanent tries to transform that permanent, the permanent does so only if it hasn’t transformed or converted since that delayed triggered ability was created. In both cases, if the permanent has already transformed or converted, an instruction to do either is ignored.

Some spells and abilities refer to a “transformed permanent.” This phrase refers to a permanent on the battlefield with its back face up that’s also a transforming double-faced card or a transforming token. A permanent with its front face up is never considered a transformed permanent, even if it had its back face up previously.
