Creature — Shapeshifter

Flying
You may look at the top card of your library any time.
At the beginning of each combat, you may reveal the top card of your library. If you reveal a creature card this way, this creature becomes a copy of that card until end of turn, except it has flying.
Watch Out
Copies don't copy counters, equipment, auras, or other external modifications. A copy of a transformed card copies only the front face. If the copy enters the battlefield, it triggers its own ETB abilities.
This card involves continuous effects applied in layer order. Type changes (layer 4) are applied before ability changes (layer 6) and P/T changes (layer 7). The order matters — a creature that loses abilities in layer 6 can still get new abilities from effects applied later in the same layer.
