2007-09-16wotc

When you activate the ability, you choose an opponent, then that opponent chooses the target.

2007-09-16wotc

Whether Preacher is tapped is checked continually, starting when the ability is activated. If, before the ability resolves, there’s any point at which Preacher is untapped, the ability has no effect — even if Preacher is tapped again by the time the ability resolves.

2004-10-04wotc

The target of the ability is a creature the chosen opponent controls. As the ability resolves, if the target isn’t a creature controlled by the chosen opponent, the ability won’t resolve. If the ability’s target is changed somehow, the new target must be a creature controlled by the chosen opponent.

Context

This printing is one of 2 catalogued treatments from PRM — the lineup includes Foil alongside the standard finish. Across our catalog the Rarix library tracks every variant in the same family so collectors can compare price, scarcity and demand inside a single lineage.

Card #23950 of *Magic Online Promos*, the promotional run that shipped alongside the October 2014 Magic Online release.

Card type: Creature — Human Cleric, color identity white, printed at rare. Rares occupy the bottom-of-pack rare slot in standard boosters. Mana cost: {1}{W}{W} (3 converted).

Legal in Legacy, Vintage, and Commander. This printing is on Wizards of the Coast's Reserved List — Wizards has committed never to reprint cards on that list, which underwrites a structural scarcity floor on every surviving copy.

EDHrec ranks this card #21,698 in Commander, putting it in the fringe-play tier of the format's playable pool.
