Q: Shilmulo Deception and Revelation of Despair

Let's say that Dedefra successfully blocks an action. She plays Revelation of Despair to put a corruption counter on the acting minion and then Petru Sipos plays Shilmulo Deception to become the blocking minion. Can Petru also play a Revelation of Despair? The problem is that Shilmulo taps the new blocking vampire, so I'm guessing that Petru cannot do so unless he plays a Wake, since Revelation of Despair doesn't make any provisions for being played by a tapped vamp. Is that correct? It's a shame, since it ruins an otherwise extremely fun combo, and also a deck that might actually use the serpentis line of Reformation.
