Piercing Exhale is one of those cards players keep asking about. Here is, in plain words, what its official text says, the rulings published by Wizards of the Coast, and the combos players actually run.
Official card text
As an additional cost to cast this spell, you may behold a Dragon. (You may choose a Dragon you control or reveal a Dragon card from your hand.) Target creature you control deals damage equal to its power to target creature or planeswalker. If a Dragon was beheld, surveil 2.
How it works : Piercing Exhale
Original English text — Wizards of the Coast / Scryfall
- #1· Wizards of the Coast
If an effect refers to a “[subtype] card,” it refers only to a card that has that subtype. For example, Teeming Dragonstorm is a card that cares about Dragons and features Dragons in its art, but it isn’t a Dragon card.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #2· Wizards of the Coast
Effects that say “If a [quality] was beheld” only care if a card of that quality was revealed or a permanent you control of that quality was chosen. No matter what happens to that card or permanent after that, it was still beheld, and any additional effects that depend on that card or permanent being beheld will still happen.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #3· Wizards of the Coast
If a cost to cast a spell includes revealing a card, that card remains revealed from the time the spell is announced until the time it leaves the stack.
No other card is named in this ruling.
- #4· Wizards of the Coast
If a card in your hand is already revealed (perhaps because it was revealed to pay a cost of a spell that’s still on the stack or due to the effect of a card like Telepathy), you may reveal it again to pay the cost of another spell or ability that requires you to reveal a card from your hand.
No other card is named in this ruling.
