When this creature enters, return a permanent you control to its owner's hand.

How it works : Dream Stalker

Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall

  1. #1· Wizards of the Coast

    You may return Dream Stalker itself to its owner's hand as its triggered ability resolves.

    No other card is named in this ruling.

  2. #2· Wizards of the Coast

    Dream Stalker's ability doesn't target any permanent. Because of this, no player may take action between the time you choose the permanent to return and the time you return it.
