[MTG] A few questions regarding the game?
1. When Derevi attacks with sword of feast and famine and deals combat damage, can I untap Derevi since it reads "you may"?
2. If I scapeshape for both valakut and Vesuva, can I have vesuva come into the battlefield as a copy of valakut since they enter at the same time? Why or why not?
3. When my opponent cast a creature for its bestow cost and I remove the targeted creature on the stack, does the bestowed creature still hit the battlefield as an actual creature?

1 - No. Derevi's effect targets, but if Derevi is equipped with Sword of Feast and Famine, then he has protection from Green and Black. Since he himself is green, he can no longer target himself with his own effect. The 'you may' clause is irrelevant.
2 - Basically Vesuva says "You may have this card come into play as.." It does not hit the field, THEN check to see what is already there. It can't choose something that's coming into play at the same time as itself, it can only become something that is already there.
3 - If a Bestow cost is paid but the target leaves the field, then the Bestow card will resolve as an Enchantment Creature rather than an Aura. It will not be countered like a regular aura whose target is lost.

1: no: the sword gives him protection from himself, so he can't target himself
2: no: it enters as a copy, so it checks before entrance. but you could always use thespian stage if you wanted that.
3: yes, it becomes a creature. there are special provisions in the rules for this fact
