i just wondering ( didnt have either of the cards )
but what happened lets say modern if player a draws a card with sphinx's tutelage and player B only have 4 nexus of fate's in his/her library?
So when you draw a card, your Sphinx's Tutelage triggers, causing your opponent to mill two, then repeat if the two cardsare nonlands that share a color. As your opponent only has Nexus of Fate left in their deck, they will mill all four. With no cards left to mill the Sphinx's Tutelage finishes resolving, and your opponent has four Nexus of Fate abilities to put on the stack. All four Nexus will be shuffled into their library, one by one. So the end result is your opponent still has four cards left in their library, all of them being Nexus of Fate.
Note - Players only lose the game when they try to DRAW from an empty library, not when their library becomes empty. At no point in the above did your opponent try to draw a card, so the game continues.

Hope that helps explain things for you.
This is incorrect. Nexus of Fate does not have a triggered ability, it has a replacement effect that replaces the cards being put into the graveyard and shuffled instead. So for this scenario the tutelage's trigger would attempt to put the two Nexus of Fate into the graveyard, instead they'd get shuffled into the library. Since they share a color it would repeat the process. Since this scenario causes a loop to occur that neither play can interrupt the game ends in a draw.

Sphinx's Tutelage
Nexus of Fate

Glad I now know the correct interaction.
