Cards/Planechase Planes/The Maelstrom
The Maelstrom
Plane — Alara
Oracle Text
When you planeswalk to The Maelstrom and at the beginning of your upkeep, you may reveal the top card of your library. If a permanent card is revealed this way, you may put it onto the battlefield. If you revealed a card but didn't put it onto the battlefield, put it on the bottom of your library.
Whenever chaos ensues, return target permanent card from your graveyard to the battlefield.

If you reveal a permanent card that can't enter (because it's an Aura and there's nothing it can enchant, for example), then you must put it on the bottom of your library.
The controller of a face-up plane card is the player designated as the "planar controller." Normally, the planar controller is whoever the active player is. However, if the current planar controller would leave the game, instead the next player in turn order that wouldn't leave the game becomes the planar controller, then the old planar controller leaves the game. The new planar controller retains that designation until they leave the game or a different player becomes the active player, whichever comes first.
A permanent card is an artifact, creature, enchantment, land, or planeswalker card.
