wotc12 Jan 2024
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.
wotc12 Jan 2024
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.
wotc5 Oct 2018
You surveil 1 even if the opponent doesn't discard a card, perhaps because they had no cards in hand at all.
