You perform the actions stated on a card in sequence. For some spells and abilities, you'll surveil last. For others, you'll surveil and then perform other actions.

Each split card has two names. If an effect instructs you to choose a card name, you may choose one of those names, but not both.
wotc8 Dec 2022
If you copy a spell that's half of a split card, the copy copies that same half. For example, if you copy Assault, the copy is also Assault, not Battery.

To cast a split card, choose one of its halves to cast. There's no way to cast both halves of this split card.
wotc8 Dec 2022
Split cards have two card faces on a single card. The characteristics of the half you didn't cast are ignored while the spell is on the stack.
wotc8 Dec 2022
A split card's characteristics are a combination of its two halves while it is not on the stack. For example, Assault // Battery has a mana value of 5 while it is in your library. If an effect allows you to search your library for a card with mana value 4 or less, you can't find Assault // Battery.
