LSJ, Can you tap Valerius Maior (tapping a tapped vampire) to burn the baleful doll then pay his infernal penalty to untap him? -- Comments Welcome, Norman S. Brown, Jr XZealot Archon of the Swamp

[ quoted text not captured ] I guess it would work with the Path of Evil Revelations, no? (assuming Valerius is untapped at the beginning of your turn) Tap him during untap to burn the Doll, then untap him again via Path.

The original question had to do with tapping an already tapped minion, which LSJ responded to. If, for any reason, Valerius was untapped at the beginning of the turn, you could tap him with the Doll and then untap him via his infernalism (Path or not).
