A '''deck inspection attack''' is an [[Attack]] card that [[reveal]]s cards from an opponent's deck and does something with them. [[Trashing attack|Trashing attacks]] and [[deck order attack|deck order attacks]] usually fall into this category.
They sometimes combine well with each other, for example, {{Card|Scrying Pool}} can let you set up an opponent's deck to have a good card to hit with {{Card|Jester}}. In other cases, they conflict with each other, for example, {{Card|Rabble}} may leave [[dead]] cards on top of your opponent's deck, and if it does attacking with {{Card|Fortune Teller}} afterward will usually have no effect.
As all deck inspection attacks [[reveal]] or [[discard]] cards rather than [[draw]]ing, they do not interact with the [[Adventures tokens|-1 Card token]]; the token is put back on the relevant player's deck once the card is done inspecting.

Cards in ''italics'' have been [[Removed cards|removed]].  [[Hex]]es listed function as the relevant Attack when revealed by an Attack-[[Doom]] card.
=== Trashing attacks ===

=== Deck order attacks ===
* {{Hex|Famine}} — Reveals three cards, discards [[Action]]s and shuffles the rest into the deck.
* ''{{Card|Fortune Teller}}'' — Reveals until finding a [[Victory]] or a {{Card|Curse}}, leaving it on top, and discarding the rest
* ''{{Card|Oracle}}'' — Reveals two cards, optionally discarding both.
* {{Card|Rabble}} — Reveals three cards and discards [[Action]]s and [[Treasure]]s.

=== Other ===
* {{Card|Cardinal}} — Reveals two cards, [[Exile]]s one costing {{Cost|3}} to {{Cost|6}}, and discards the rest.
* {{Card|Jester}} — Discards the top card and gains a card based on it either to the same player or the current player.
* {{Card|Sorcerer}} — Reveals the top card (leaving it there) and gains a {{Card|Curse}} unless the player couldn't guess the name.
=== Related cards ===
Although {{Card|Chariot Race}} and ''{{Card|Tribute}}'' are not Attacks, they do reveal the top card of another player's deck to determine their effect.
{{Hex|Bad Omens}}, {{Hex|Greed}}, and ''{{Card|Sea Hag}}'' don't reveal any cards, but results in a known card being at the top of other players' decks.
