Talk:Surveil

Oracle back-errata

A Reddit thread from last week has pointed out that the Gatherer wording of cards in the the Mechanically similar cards without the keyword section has been updated to use surveil. The redditor u/cardologist thinks it happened some time between the Unfinity/40K release and October 6, 2022.

I've checked the oracle:"Surveil" wording vs Gatherer search for "Surveil" (text), Gatherer — Wizards of the Coast wording and the following cards have the updated errata:

White

• Consulate Surveillance

Blue

• Consider
• Contingency Plan
• Cruel Witness
• Curate
• Larder Zombie
• Naga Oracle
• Otherworldly Gaze
• Rummaging Wizard
• Search for Azcanta
• Taigam's Scheming
• Think Tank

Black

• Eat to Extinction
• Sanguine Spy

Black/Green

• Grim Flayer
• Uurg, Spawn of Turg

Multicolor

• Etherwrought Page
• Sultai Ascendancy
• Titan's Nest

As there's no official announcement that I can find, do we update the article now or wait until WotC says something?

(Edit: and as I was literally writing this up, Scryfall have now updated their errata to mathc Gatherer) -- RivalRowan (talk) 12:03, 15 October 2022 (UTC)

Gatherer is an official source. I think it is OK to ad it to the page (naming Gatherer as the source) --Hunterofsalvation (talk) 12:16, 15 October 2022 (UTC)

There also seems to be a similar errata for landfall --Hunterofsalvation (talk) 13:34, 15 October 2022 (UTC)

Should the "Last used" now be updated to mention Dominaria United as the latest set to use it, seeing as Uurg got errata'd to use Surveil, or is it the last time it was actually printed on a (in this case Digital, as it's currently set to the Baldur's Gate Alchemy set) card? 217.103.107.181 10:17, 20 October 2022 (UTC)
