Challenge is a keyword action, introduced on a test card in the Mystery Booster set. A player may challenge another player to reveal certain cards in their hand to counter a certain effect. If the challenge is successfully met, the effect will be enlarged. If not, the effect is nullified.
If you're challenged, you may reveal any number of cards from your hand. The effect that allowed a player to challenge you will specify what you must reveal to win the challenge.[1]
Such mechanics have been utilized in other card games for decades (most notably Cheat, and more recently Coup), Richard Garfield attempted to port the Challenge mechanic into Magic for Dominaria.[2]
Example
Example
Xyru Specter 
Creature — Specter
2/2
Whenever Xyru Specter deals damage to an opponent, that player discards a card unless they challenge you. If challenged, and you show them two black cards in your hand, they must discard two cards.
