What it does
Whenever an opponent casts a spell, reveal the top card of your library. If it's a creature card, put it onto the battlefield. Otherwise, you may put that card on the bottom of your library.
Rulings
3 official rulings, in the order Wizards published them.
- 2009-10-01
A "creature card" is any card with the type creature, even if it has other types such as artifact, enchantment, or land. Older cards of type summon are also creature cards.
- 2009-10-01
If an opponent casts a spell, this ability triggers and is put on the stack on top of that spell. This ability will resolve (meaning that a revealed creature card will enter) before the spell resolves.
- 2009-10-01
You must put the revealed card onto the battlefield if it's a creature card. If it's not a creature card and you don't put it on the bottom of your library, it stops being revealed and simply remains on top of your library.
Rulings are Wizards of the Coast's own, mirrored from Scryfall and refreshed nightly.
