    If more than one card is being drawn due to a single effect, apply the replacement as if the cards were being drawn one at a time.

  2. 2004-10-04

    It will replace itself being sent to the graveyard, and exile itself.

  3. 2004-10-04

    The second ability is a replacement effect, not a triggered ability. The card never gets to the graveyard.

  4. 2004-10-04

    The “if you can’t” in the first ability refers to putting the card in your hand, as well as being unable to choose a card. Thus, if you can’t choose a card during resolution, you lose the game.
