Rulings
Official rulings from Wizards of the Coast (5).
- 2007-09-16This is a change from the most recent wording. As was the case in the past, Paralyze itself has the last triggered ability, rather than granting that ability to the enchanted creature.
- 2004-10-04Paying the cost is optional.
- 2004-10-04Paralyze can be cast targeting a creature which is already tapped.
- 2004-10-04The creature can only be untapped using Paralyze once per turn.
- 2004-10-04Two Paralyzes are not cumulative. Paying either one will untap the creature.
