Lets say you have a double faced card with the ability of Brain Maggot, and then it transforms.
As I understand it, it hasn't left the battlefield, but there is also no longer a card named Brain Maggot on the battlefield. Will the card remain exiled, be returned to their hand, or does the rules simply not cover this eventuality?
201.4. Text that refers to the object it’s on by name means just that particular object and not any other objects with that name, regardless of any name changes caused by game effects.
If the night-side permanent leaves the battlefield (whose day side has the ability of Brain Maggot), the card that was exiled will return.
