Target opponent reveals their hand. You choose a nonland card from it. That player discards that card.
Surveil 1. (Look at the top card of your library. You may put it into your graveyard.)
Official rulings
- You surveil 1 even if the opponent doesn't discard a card, perhaps because they had no cards in hand at all. (2018-10-05)
- Some spells that instruct you to surveil require targets. You can't cast a spell without choosing legal targets. If all of those targets become illegal, the spell doesn't resolve and you won't surveil. (2024-01-12)
- You perform the actions stated on a card in sequence. For some spells and abilities, you'll surveil last. For others, you'll surveil and then perform other actions. (2024-01-12)
