The -1/-1 is part of the cost so Melira doesn't let you cast this card.
Oh and strictly better than Skulltap

So, with Melira, does it put no counters on or can you just not cast this?

This card is so good. Two cards for two mana? So what if you have to place a -1/-1 on your creature? You can put the counter on a creature you don't care about or even put it on one that does things with -1/-1 counters. This card is just awesome.

This will fit nicely with Gravecrawler and Geralf's Messanger

Use the -1/-1 to bump off your Skullclamp monkey and net 4 cards.

@Ilovealara: Once again "strictly better" is thrown around. Not strictly better than skulltap. There are cards that benifit from sacrifice. For example mortician beetle, or even abyssal persecutor (after killing opponents). So although in many scenarios this would be better, it is not "strictly better."

I use this in my Ninja deck. Who cares if the creature gets smaller if it's just going to return to my hand anyway?
