Card text

Flash

If an opponent would draw a card except the first one they draw in each of their draw steps, instead that player skips that draw and you draw a card.

"That's your tone, is it? Change it, or we'll change it for you. You little folk are getting too uppish."

March 16, 2018 — If an opponent is instructed to draw a card then discard a card, and Notion Thief causes you to draw a card instead, that opponent still discards a card. The same is true of any other actions that opponent is instructed to do.
March 16, 2018 — If two or more players each control a Notion Thief and a player would draw a card other than the first one in their draw step, that player chooses one of the applicable Notion Thief effects to apply. Then the player whose Notion Thief's effect was chosen repeats this process among the remaining Notion Thief effects, and so on, until there are no more possible such effects to apply. Each effect can be applied to the card draw only once this way.
March 16, 2018 — The above procedure means that if each player in a two-player game controls a Notion Thief and one would draw a card, it really will be that player who draws a card.
