Old school flip cards

[Avodroc13]

My {Cunning Bandit} doesn't require a stand-in card to represent it's a flip card. I know the "element of surprise" with flip cards is the opponent doesn't know what the other side of the card does until it flips. (Implying they aren't familiar with it.)

My bandit has the flip part upside down on the card itself. Do I cover it up? Do I hope they don't read it? Also, when a card flips, does it enter in as a new entity?

The bottom part of cards like this is public information whenever the top part is. You cannot hide the bottom.

So my opponent(s) will know what to expect?

Eeyup. One of several reasons why the Kamigawa block wasn't well-liked

I mean, with DFCs, if an opponent asks to see the opposite side, you have to let them.

What about morph cards? Can they look at those too?

Absolutely not. Morphs are specifically face down. Only you may look at a face down card you control. Flip cards aren't technically face down, one side is only incidentally.

Morph is meant to specifically hide information.  The identity of a face-down card is private information.
