  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    Can target a tapped artifact.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    If the Gremlins somehow become an artifact and then tap themselves, they can never be untapped during the untap phase. They must be untapped by an external effect.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    Only prevents the artifact from untapping during untap step. Ones that untap during upkeep are not inhibited.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    The effect does not end if the target stops being valid. For example, if it stops being an artifact.

  • WotCOct 4, 2004

    The target artifact can’t untap if the Gremlins and the artifact are tapped during untap, even if it is your artifact, and you plan on untapping the Gremlins.
