Card Rulings
- October 4, 2004
If the creature is no longer tapped when the Assassin's ability resolves, then the ability doesn't resolve.

Can't target itself because you choose the target before you tap him. At that time he is not yet a legal target.

Price History
To study a single card is to glimpse the heart of a spell - a frozen moment of ambition, artistry, and arcane intent. Within each glyph lies a spark: a story untold, a duel turned, a destiny altered. Treat it not as mere parchment, dear seeker, but as a shard of the Multiverse itself.
