Parallel Universe: Copying a normal creature will copy it with all its skill and its current stats.(Remember the 'Dive' ability ;-) )
Copying a Mutant will only Copy the 'background' card - its stats will be slightly changed (how much exactly? +-3 ?) and it will get a completely new skill. Momentum will be copied
Exactly, it will be a new mutant based on that card, so it will have the base attack value of the card plus a random number between 0 and 5, the same goes for HP.

Creatures with Antimatter do not consume charges from the bonewall
In fact creatures with negative attack ignore most shield effects... I'm not sure if all shield effects, or only some of them, does anyone know for sure?
May the force of the D4HK side be with U ^_^

any idea how to put all this in the first post?^^ maybe "Mutation and related: see post #99" ?
I don't think you need to put the exact mechanics of every card up here. That's what the wiki is for -you can link to the relevant articles there. No need to list all Chaos Seed effects here. This guide should probably focus on giving a crash course of the more immediately relevant information ommited from the cards. I've seen quite a few fire deck users try to use Rain of Fire on my immaterial creatures and I always find it kind of sad to watch.

wait Gl1tch really, reversing a mummy doesnt put it to the top,t hen where the hell does it go.

And a little edit to your post.  Devourer/pest is not included int he burrow rule.  Their attack isnt halved (maybe its a new change but it doesnt for my fractal/pest deck)

they have 0 attack, halving keeps it at 0, so...

if you hit them with blessing (+3) and then burrow, they should have 1 attack

does this occur in other situations?

Mhm.  The card eclipse doesn't actually effect the creature's base stats.  It in fact constantly adds the effect.  So a devourer is a 0+2 from eclipse, it burrows and becomes a 0/2+2.  As opposed to a blessed devourer, which would be a 3 attack creature, and burrow to a 3/2 attack creature.

Sounds fine in theory, but a blessed and burrowed Devourer is 1/5. I've seen it just a minute ago against AI3. Some of these mechanics are really confusing.

The second you win (I.E. the opponents health goes below 0) the game is over. So if you have an empathetic bond that will give you elemental mastery with all you creatures combined, but the first kills them then you won't get it.

I think copying a mutated creature makes it based of the mutated creature because ive seen a golem with 7 health no blessing

and you guys should clarify the antimatter/ vampire because it hurts the person who controls it and heals you. its hard to tell that by just reading it

Lobotomizer will remove the Devourer/Pest ability.
