Related Rules

115.1e

Some keyword abilities, such as equip and modular, represent targeted activated or triggered abilities, and some keyword abilities, such as mutate, cause spells to have targets. In those cases, the phrase “target [something]” appears in the rule for that keyword ability rather than in the ability itself. (The keyword’s reminder text will often contain the word “target.”) See rule 702, “Keyword Abilities.”

702.140

Mutate

702.140a

Mutate appears on some creature cards. It represents a static ability that functions while the spell with mutate is on the stack. “Mutate [cost]” means “You may pay [cost] rather than pay this spell’s mana cost. If you do, it becomes a mutating creature spell and targets a non-Human creature with the same owner as this spell.” Casting a spell using its mutate ability follows the rules for paying alternative costs (see 601.2b and 601.2f–h).

729.1

One keyword causes an object to merge with a permanent. See rule 702.140, “Mutate.”

Rulings

2020-06-23

If the player reveals their entire library without revealing a creature card, that player just shuffles their library.

2020-06-23

If the target creature is an illegal target by the time Transmogrify tries to resolve, the spell won't resolve. No player reveals cards or shuffles their library.
