Carte Magic Omnipresent Impostor

Omnipresent Impostor 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.

01

Official card text

Changeling Omnipresent Impostor has all card names. As you search your library for one or more cards, you may choose Omnipresent Impostor as one of those cards. (For example, if you search for two land cards, you may find Omnipresent Impostor and a land card.)

How it works : Omnipresent Impostor

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    Omnipresent Impostor’s second ability is a characteristic-defining ability that functions in all zones as well as outside the game.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Omnipresent Impostor has the names of all cards, including the back faces of double-faced cards. Notably, it doesn’t have the names of tokens, such as Zombie Token, Blood Token, and similar.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  3. #3· Wizards of the Coast

    Omnipresent Impostor has the basic supertype, and you can play as many of them as you want in your Constructed decks. These two statements may or may not be related.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  4. #4· Wizards of the Coast

    Each time you search your deck for one or more cards, you can find Omnipresent Impostor in place of one of those cards. If you search your deck for more than one card, you can replace each of those cards with an Omnipresent Impostor as long as there are enough Omnipresent Impostors in your deck. Continue resolving the search effect with Omnipresent Impostor in place of whatever card it replaced. For example, Sakura-Tribe Elder’s activated ability lets you put an Omnipresent Impostor onto the battlefield tapped, while Goblin Engineer’s enters ability lets you put an Omnipresent Impostor into your graveyard.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  5. #5· Wizards of the Coast

    Playtest cards aren’t legal for play in any tournament format other than Mystery Booster Limited formats. On the other hand, we expect they will spice up a wide variety of non-tournament games (as long as everyone’s on the same page about using them!).

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  6. #6· Wizards of the Coast

    Playtest cards use a modified version of game symbols, such as {T} and {W}. These modified symbols should be treated as the standard symbols during play.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  7. #7· Wizards of the Coast

    For many playtest cards, you’ll need to make a generous assumption that basic game rules would be updated to allow them to work. The Mystery Booster 2 Playtest Card Notes section (reproduced here in individual Gatherer rulings) provides guidance for fitting these cards into the existing rules structure.

    No other card is named in this ruling.
