@Duddits: Yes. As soon as the ability targets the creature, it dies. The ability does not even have to resolve, the fact that it targets is enough.

When giant growth becomes a 1 mana kill spell... you're doing something right!

The really cool part is this gets past protection from black. The effect doesn't target the creature, it activates as a result of the creature being targeted so if a player tries to enchant their protection from black creature then it dies. You can use this in a multicolored deck to cast giant growth or something of the like on their creatures with protection from black to quickly eliminate them.

@Solaris Now the problem with Kami of the Waning Moon and Teller of Tales is they are not conditional. You will not want to play your Kami of the Wanning Moon whilst Hirobi, Death's Wail is on the field when your opponent has no creatures. The effect is non-conditional so you have to give a creature fear, meaning you will probably end up giving the Wanning Moon fear and killing him so you don't have to keep targeting your own creatures. With soul shift and a lot of the black cards from that set alone it's not hard to get the kami back once it's dead but worrying about the drawback you just pu... (see all)

Friend: "I play Eldrazi Con***ion on my Emrakul, the Aeons Torn!"
Me: "Cool flipping story bro.

Favorite 2 combos:

Asceticism: Protect all your creatures from his effect with a built-in green Doomblade

Hex Parasite: kill anything, from a colorless source, for 2 life or Black

Ok, I'm NOT new to magic by any means, but I really want to know this.. What happens if you shift the target of a spell or ability with Spellskite?

Horobi's ability goes on the stack, as it's an activated ability, reading "whenever"

At this point, I KNOW you can COUNTER his ability with stifle or trickbind, as neither actually targets him, only the ability. Even if it did, trickbind would prevent another copy of his ability from being placed on the stack.

But if the target is CHANGED, does that still destroy the original target? Because creature has still been targeted, but if the creature is no longer targeted when the ability resolves, does it matter?

I don't personally think so, but i could easily be wrong...
