Rules

07/12/19

Look at the card as it exists in your graveyard to determine whether it can enter the battlefield. For example, Sculpting Steel can be put onto the battlefield as a copy of a creature, but Phyrexian Metamorph can’t be put onto the battlefield, even if it would copy a noncreature artifact.

07/12/19

Players can still play lands from graveyards or libraries if an effect allows them to do so.
