Gilbert Duane attempts to bleed. Brazil attempts to block. Gilbert Duane plays Faceless Night, for +1 stealth and tapping Brazil. Brazil plays Enhanced Senses for +1 intercept. Gilbert Duane plays Change of Target. Is Brazil tapped in the conclusion of this action, or does Change of Target nullify Faceless Night's effect? John Baker

[ quoted text not captured ] Faceless Night taps the (successful) blocker when the block is successful, as normal. (It taps an unsuccessful blocker when the controller declares "no more block attempts" or when another minion's block is successful.) So Change of Target would leave both minions untapped (as normal). Basically, you treat Faceless Night's effect on a successful blocker as a non-effect - it is merely duplicating the tapping effect of the successful block. (If the blocking minion wouldn't normally tap when he blocks, Faceless Night will still tap him, though.) -- LSJ (vte...@wizards.com) VTES Net.Rep for Wizards of the Coast.
