  • Jan 19, 2018

    If Animate Library leaves the battlefield, your library goes back to being a normal library.

  • Jan 19, 2018

    If your animated library becomes four libraries because of Split Screen, Animate Library stays attached to one of them of your choice. Only that one is a creature.

    While your library is a creature, it can become enchanted or equipped, it can be tapped and untapped, and it can attack and block like other creatures.
