Gameplay
Creature — Shapeshifter
At the beginning of your upkeep, you may have this creature become a copy of another target creature, except it has this ability.
"If left in the enemy's shape too long, it might be lost to them."

wotc
If the creature is an illegal target when the ability tries to resolve, it won’t resolve. Cryptoplasm won’t become a copy of that creature; it remains whatever it was before.
wotc
The copy effect lasts indefinitely. Often, it will last until it is overwritten by another copy effect (if it copies another creature on a future turn, perhaps.)
