If a spell or ability causes you to draw cards and then has you remove some from hand (such as by discarding them or putting them on top of your library), Stingerback Terror may briefly have 0 toughness or less. As long as its toughness is 1 or greater again after the spell or ability is finished resolving, it will remain on the battlefield.

Because damage remains marked on a creature until it's removed as the turn ends, the damage Stingerback Terror takes during combat may become lethal if you draw cards later in the turn.

Exiling a card using its plot ability is a special action. Once you announce you're taking that action, no other player can respond by trying to remove that card from your hand.

You can't cast a plotted card on the same turn it became plotted. On any future turn, you may cast that card from exile without paying its mana cost during your main phase while the stack is empty.
