Volatile Chimera 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
Before you shuffle your deck to start the game, you may reveal this card from your deck and exile three or more creature cards you drafted that aren't in your deck.: Choose a card at random you exiled with cards named Volatile Chimera. This creature becomes a copy of that card, except it has this ability.
How it works : Volatile Chimera
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
Unlike the other two cards with this style of ability (Arcane Savant and Caller of the Untamed), if you have more than one Volatile Chimera in your deck, you need only reveal one of them because you can exile as many creature cards that aren't in your deck as you want, with a minimum of three. If you do reveal more than one Volatile Chimera before shuffling, you'll have to exile at least three creature cards for each of them.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
The copy effect created by the activated ability doesn't have a duration. It will last until Volatile Chimera leaves the battlefield or another copy effect overwrites it.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
No enters-the-battlefield abilities of the creature card Volatile Chimera is copying will trigger. Volatile Chimera was already on the battlefield.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
After Volatile Chimera copies a creature card, that card remains in the pool of cards you can choose with the last ability.
No other card is named in this ruling.
