    If a creature card has "*" in its toughness, the ability that defines its toughness works in all zones. For example, if Nethergoyf is in your library, its toughness is determined by the ability "Nethergoyf's power is equal to the number of card types among cards in your graveyard and its toughness is equal to that number plus 1." If your graveyard consists of an artifact card, a creature card, and an instant card, you won't be able to find Nethergoyf with Recruiter of the Guard since Nethergoyf's toughness will be 4.
