If a player casts  {Sphinx's Revelation} and I were to respond to it with the new card notion thief. Would I draw all the cards from said revelation or just the first?

You would draw all of them. It replaces all instances of card draw outside of the draw step, and gives it to you. {Plagiarize} on a stick!

They would cancel each other out.

Assuming they are smart they wouldnt cast revelation on their turn which means if it is your turn and they havent drawn yet you draw X-1 since one of those is their first card.

I don't believe this would help them. The thief steals their draw unless its the first draw during their own draw step, so casting it on an opponent's turn would still make them lose all their cards, as they're drawing outside of their first card draw on their draw step (seeing as its the opponents turn). Unless I'm misunderstanding what you're saying?

Notion Thief is anti- {Sphinx's Revelation} tech, even if you use it on their end step you lose the draw. That being said, I'm probably buying more Sphinx's anticipating that people are selling in fear of that card, like they did during {Skullcrack} hype. I'm anticipating it stabilizing again for more money.
