About Dream Eater

Dream Eater, Creature — nightmare sphinx, designed by Daarken first released in Oct, 2018 in the set Guilds of Ravnica and was printed exactly in 3 different ways. It's currently being selled by the minimum price of 0.20.

Dream Eater is an excellent fit for control or tempo decks that leverage blue's strengths in card selection and manipulation, as its flash ability allows for surprise plays and its surveil mechanic enhances graveyard strategies while providing card filtering. It can be particularly effective in decks that aim to disrupt opponents' plans by returning key permanents to their hands, making it a strong addition in formats where tempo and control are vital. While there are other powerful cards like Snapcaster Mage or Teferi, Time Raveler that may offer more versatility or immediate impact, Dream Eater can certainly find a place in a well-constructed deck focused on controlling the board and generating card advantage. Overall, it should see play in the right archetypes, especially in formats that value both flying threats and graveyard interactions.

Rules

10/05/18

Dream Eater’s triggered ability goes on the stack without a target. While that ability is resolving, after you’ve surveilled, the reflexive triggered ability triggers and you pick a target nonland permanent to be returned to its owner’s hand. This is different from effects that say “If you do . . .” in that you choose the target after having surveilled.

10/05/18

When you surveil, you may put all the cards you look at back on top of your library, you may put all of those cards into your graveyard, or you may put some of those cards on top and the rest of them into your graveyard.
