wotc1 Sept 2023
If Malleable Impostor somehow enters the battlefield at the same time as another creature, Malleable Impostor can't become a copy of that creature. You may choose only a creature that's already on the battlefield.
wotc1 Sept 2023
If the chosen permanent is a token, Malleable Impostor copies the original characteristics of that token as stated by the effect that put the token onto the battlefield, with the listed exceptions. Malleable Impostor does not become a token.
wotc1 Sept 2023
You can choose not to copy anything. In that case, Malleable Impostor simply enters the battlefield as a 0/0 creature and is probably put into your graveyard immediately, unless something else is increasing its toughness to keep it alive.
wotc1 Sept 2023
Any enters-the-battlefield abilities of the copied permanent will trigger when Malleable Impostor enters the battlefield. Any "as [this permanent] enters the battlefield" or "[this permanent] enters the battlefield with" abilities of the chosen permanent will also work.
wotc1 Sept 2023
If the chosen permanent is copying something else (for example, if the chosen permanent is a Clone), then your Malleable Impostor enters the battlefield as whatever the chosen permanent copied, with the stated exceptions.
wotc1 Sept 2023
If the chosen permanent has {X} in its mana cost, X is 0.
