Islandwalk (This creature can't be blocked as long as defending player controls an Island.)

Whenever this creature deals combat damage to a player, that player reveals a card at random from their hand.

Official rulings

  1. Islandwalk cares about lands with the land type Island, not necessarily lands named Island. (2010-08-15)
  2. The next time Merfolk Spy deals combat damage to the same player, the card that’s revealed at random may be the same card or may be a different card. (2010-08-15)
  3. After the second ability resolves, the revealed card stops being revealed in its owner’s hand. (2010-08-15)
  4. The second ability triggers just once each time Merfolk Spy deals combat damage to a player, regardless of how much damage it deals. (2010-08-15)
