Cemetery Illuminator is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
Official card text
Flying Whenever this creature enters or attacks, exile a card from a graveyard. You may look at the top card of your library any time. Once each turn, you may cast a spell from the top of your library if it shares a card type with a card exiled with this creature.
How it works : Cemetery Illuminator
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
Card types that can be exiled from a graveyard include artifact, creature, enchantment, land, planeswalker, instant, and sorcery. Legendary, basic, and snow are supertypes, not card types. Human, Equipment, and Aura are subtypes, not card types.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
Cemetery Illuminator's ability allows you to cast a spell that shares a card type with the exiled card, even if the card on top of the library doesn't. For example, if you've exiled an artifact card, you could cast The Omenkeel from the top of your library, even though it's the back face of the modal double-faced card Cosima, God of the Voyage, which isn't an artifact.
No other card is named in this ruling.
