Gilder Bairn

Creature - Ouphe 1/3, 1{G/U}{G/U} (3)
{2}{G/U}, {untap}: For each counter on target permanent, put another of those counters on that permanent. ({untap} is the untap symbol.)¹
Do the glowing trinkets show it the way home, or do they set a twisted path for someone else to follow?
Illus. Nils Hamm

Gatherer Card Rulings [Nov 2009]

• 8/1/2008: If the permanent is already untapped, you can't activate its {Q} ability. That's because you can't pay the "Untap this permanent" cost.
• 8/1/2008: The "summoning sickness" rule applies to {Q}. If a creature with an {Q} ability hasn't been under your control since your most recent turn began, you can't activate that ability. Ignore this rule if the creature also has haste.
• 8/1/2008: When you activate an {Q} ability, you untap the creature with that ability as a cost. The untap can't be responded to. (The actual ability can be responded to, of course.)
• 8/1/2008: Gilder Bairn's ability will replicate each kind of counter on the targeted permanent, not just +1/+1 or -1/-1 counters.
