Creature - Elemental 5/5, 5RR (7) Wither (This deals damage to creatures in the form of -1/-1 counters.) {2}{R}, {Q}: Hateflayer deals damage equal to its power to target creature or player. ({Q} is the untap symbol.)1 It has no safe side.
Illus. Thomas M. Baxa
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: Wither applies to any damage Hateflayer deals to a creature, which includes both its combat damage and damage from its activated ability.
