Creature - Zombie 2/1, 1B (2) When Cyclopean Mummy is put into a graveyard from play, remove Cyclopean Mummy from the game.1 The ritual of plucking out an eye to gain future sight is but a curse that enables the living to see their own deaths.
Illus. Edward P. Beard, Jr.
The Mummy does go to the graveyard and trigger abilities (such as Soul Net) which watch for something going to the graveyard. It then leaves the game as a triggered ability (see Rule 404). [bethmo 1994/06/22]
It does not leave the game if it goes to the graveyard from someplace other than "in play". This includes discarding from your hand or if the spell is countered. [bethmo 1994/06/27]
Extended tournaments (see Rule 803) have banned this card since 1999/10/01.
Note - This card was creature type "Mummy" until Oracle 2007/10/01, when it became "Zombie".
