For more information on double-faced cards, see the Shadows over Innistrad mechanics article (http://magic.wizards.com/en/articles/archive/feature/shadows-over-innistrad-mechanics).

06/22/15

A double-faced card enters the battlefield with its front face up by default, unless a spell or ability instructs you to put it onto the battlefield transformed, in which case it enters with its back face up.

06/22/15

If a double-faced card is manifested, it will be put onto the battlefield face down (this is also true if it’s put onto the battlefield face down some other way). Note that “face down” is not synonymous with “with its back face up.” A manifested double-faced card is a 2/2 creature with no name, mana cost, creature types, or abilities. While face down, it can’t transform. If the front face of a manifested double-faced card is a creature card, you can turn it face up by paying its mana cost. If you do, its front face will be up. A double-faced card on the battlefield can’t be turned face down.

06/22/15

If a land becomes a creature but hasn’t continuously been under its controller’s control since that player’s most recent turn began, it won’t be able to attack and its abilities with in the cost (including mana abilities) won’t be able to be activated. In other words, look at how long the permanent itself has been under your control, not how long it’s been a creature.

06/22/15

In some rare cases, a spell or ability may cause one of these five cards to transform while it’s a creature (front face up) on the battlefield. If this happens, the resulting planeswalker won’t have any loyalty counters on it and will subsequently be put into its owner’s graveyard.

06/22/15

Nissa, Vastwood Seer is exiled as a result of her second triggered ability. If she enters the battlefield while you control seven or more lands, she won’t automatically be exiled and transform.

06/22/15

The converted mana cost of a double-faced card not on the battlefield is the converted mana cost of its front face.

06/22/15

You can activate Nissa, Sage Animist’s second ability even if you already control an Ashaya, the Awoken World. Just after the second token is created, you’ll choose one to remain on the battlefield. The other will be put into your graveyard and subsequently cease to exist.
