Island Sanctuary
    Color= White Type= Enchantment Cost= 1W A(R)/B(R)/U(R)/R(R)/4(R)/5(R)
    Text (5th+errata): If you would draw a card during your draw step, instead you may skip that draw. If you do, until your next turn, you can't be attacked except by creatures with flying and/or islandwalk. [Oracle 2009/07/08]
  • The ability is played as a replacement effect (see Rule 614) right when you would draw a card due to a spell, ability, or the mandatory draw action during the draw step. [D'Angelo 2000/03/03]
  • You only have to skip one draw during your draw step to activate this. If you get multiple draws or you use a spell or ability during the draw step to draw extra cards, you can skip any one of those. [bethmo 1994/05/30]
  • Since the draw is replaced, you cannot use the same replaced draw to pay for other spells or abilities. [D'Angelo 2000/03/03]
  • This card does not count as an Island for any spell which expects Islands. [bethmo 1994/04/01]
  • Once activated, the effect will continue until your next turn even if this card leaves play. [D'Angelo 1995/10/27]
  • You can choose to skip more than one draw during your draw step, but it has no additional effect if you do so. [D'Angelo 2000/04/06]
  • It does not stop any Planeswalkers you control from being attacked. [D'Angelo 2009/10/20]
  • Note - Also see Landwalk, Rule 702.12.
