As long as your devotion to green and blue is less than seven, Kruphix isn't a creature.

You have no maximum hand size.

If you would lose unspent mana, that mana becomes colorless instead.

Wizards of the Coast 26 Apr 2014

As long as Kruphix is on the battlefield, you'll keep unspent mana as steps and phases end (although it will become colorless). This means you can add mana and spend it during a future step, phase, or turn. Once Kruphix leaves the battlefield, you have until the end of the current step or phase to use the mana before it disappears.

Wizards of the Coast 26 Apr 2014

If unspent mana has any restrictions or riders associated with it (for example, if it was produced by Cavern of Souls), those restrictions or riders will remain associated with that mana when it becomes colorless.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

As a God enters the battlefield, your devotion to its color will determine whether any replacement effects that affect creatures entering the battlefield apply to that God. Because replacement effects are considered before the God is on the battlefield, the mana symbols in its mana cost won't be counted when determining this.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

Counters put on a God remain on it while it's not a creature, even if they have no effect.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

If a God is attacking or blocking and it stops being a creature, it will be removed from combat. It won't rejoin combat if it resumes being a creature later during that combat.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

If a God stops being a creature, it loses the type creature and the creature type God. It continues to be a legendary enchantment.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

If an effect causes a God to lose all abilities, its ability that causes it to stop being a creature still applies if appropriate.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

The abilities of Gods function as long as they're on the battlefield, regardless of whether they're creatures.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

The type-changing ability that can make a God not be a creature functions only on the battlefield. It's always a creature card in other zones, regardless of your devotion to its color. It's always a creature spell while it's on the stack.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

When a God enters the battlefield, your devotion to its color (including the mana symbols in the mana cost of the God itself) will determine if a creature entered the battlefield or not for abilities that trigger whenever a creature enters the battlefield.

Wizards of the Coast 24 Jan 2020

Your devotion to two colors is the number of mana symbols among mana costs of permanents you control that are the first color, the second, or both. If an effect counts your devotion to two colors, a hybrid symbol that is both of those colors is counted just once.
