Official rulings

Three official rulings apply to Parcelbeast, newest first.

  • If the top card of your library is a land card, you may just put it into your hand instead of putting it onto the battlefield. If you do, you don’t reveal that it’s a land card.
  • If you don’t put the top card of your library onto the battlefield, you put it into your hand without revealing it.
  • Parcelbeast’s effect doesn’t count as playing a land. It can put a land card onto the battlefield even if you’ve already played your land for the turn.
