Fisher's Talent

Card text

(Gain the next level as a sorcery to add its ability.)

At the beginning of your upkeep, look at the top card of your library. You may reveal it if it's a land card. Create a 1/1 blue Fish creature token if you revealed it this way. Then draw a card.

{G}{U}: Level 2

If you would create a Fish token, create a 3/3 blue Shark creature token instead.

{2}{G}{U}: Level 3

If you would create a Shark token, create an 8/8 blue Octopus creature token instead.
