Rulings
Apr 12, 2024

Any non-copy effects that applied to the first target creature before it becomes a copy of another creature will continue to apply once it becomes a copy. The same is true of any counters that are on the first creature.

Apr 12, 2024

Fleeting Reflection’s first target can be a creature that’s already untapped. It will still get hexproof and, if applicable, become a copy of the other target creature.

Apr 12, 2024

If the copied creature is a token, the first target creature copies the original characteristics of that token as stated by the effect that created that token.

Apr 12, 2024

If the copied creature is copying something else, then the first target creature becomes a copy of whatever that creature copied.

Apr 12, 2024

If the second target creature is an illegal target as Fleeting Reflection tries to resolve, the first target creature will still gain hexproof until end of turn, and you’ll still untap it if it was tapped.

Apr 12, 2024

The first target creature copies exactly what was printed on the other target creature and nothing else (unless that creature is copying something else or is a token; see below). It doesn’t copy whether that creature is tapped or untapped, whether it has any counters on it or Auras and Equipment attached to it, or any non-copy effects that have changed its power, toughness, types, color, and so on.

Apr 12, 2024

When the first target creature becomes a copy of the other target creature, it’s neither entering nor leaving the battlefield. Any enters-the-battlefield or leaves-the-battlefield abilities won’t trigger.
