Tamiyo, the Moon Sage Rulings
- Jul 1, 2013 The ability can target a tapped permanent. If the targeted permanent is already tapped when it resolves, that permanent just remains tapped and doesn’t untap during its controller’s next untap step.
- May 1, 2012 Cards that are put into your graveyard can be returned to your hand by the emblem’s ability even if they were never in your hand.
- May 1, 2012 If you activate Tamiyo’s third ability when she has eight loyalty counters on her, she’ll be put into your graveyard before the emblem is created. She won’t return to your hand.
