Gameplay
Creature — Merfolk Wizard
{1}{U/B}, {Q}: Target creature gets -2/-0 until end of turn. ({Q} is the untap symbol.)
Grimeblotters spend so much time in the Dark Meanders that they're able to bring a piece with them wherever they go.

wotc
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.
wotc
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.)
