Official Rulings

• If I play Exhume (AoA 059) and choose an Explo-rover (WC 297) in my discard pile, can I play it as an upgrade, or must I play it as a creature?
  You can play Explo-rover as either an upgrade or a creature with Exhume. When Exhume specifies “creature” in your discard pile, this is a play restriction on which card in your discard pile you can choose, but not a requirement that that card must remain a creature as you play it.

Outstanding Issues

• If I play Exhume and target half a Gigantic creature in the discard pile for which I have the other half in my hand, does the Gigantic creature get played or does the effect of Exhume fail?

  Arcana Advises: A card that will allow you to play a single creature from an out-of-play zone such as Lateral Shift, Helper Bot, or Subject Kirby will successfully play a Gigantic creature if both halves of the Gigantic creature are within that zone. However, Exhume's ability is targeting a single card in the discard pile and would therefore fail.
