It is especially useful in decks that rely on specific creatures or strategies to win.

Rules

08/07/20

If a spell or ability has multiple targets but doesn’t use the word “target” multiple times, such as the ability of Deepglow Skate, you can only change one of the targets to Spellskite.

08/07/20

If changing one target of a spell or ability to Spellskite would make other targets of that spell or ability illegal, that target can’t be changed to Spellskite.

08/07/20

You can activate Spellskite’s ability even if Spellskite isn’t a legal target for the target spell or ability—or even if that spell or ability has no targets. In this case, no targets are changed.
