Notes and Rules Information for Paralyze:
- Paralyze can be cast targeting a creature which is already tapped. (2004-10-04)
- The creature can only be untapped using Paralyze once per turn. (2004-10-04)
- Two Paralyzes are not cumulative. Paying either one will untap the creature. (2004-10-04)
- Paying the cost is optional. (2004-10-04)
- This is a change from the most recent wording. As was the case in the past, Paralyze itself has the last triggered ability, rather than granting that ability to the enchanted creature. (2007-09-16)
