If a card you remove requires you to reveal it as you draft it, do so and follow any additional instructions it may have related to drafting it. However, if a card you remove instructs you to draft it face up, it has no effect while face up and can't be turned face down to use an ability.

Some cards allow you to exile other cards you've drafted that aren't in your deck before the game starts. Cards you removed from the draft with Animus of Predation can't be exiled this way because they aren't in your card pool.
