Can i target the same creature twice with one of these instants or sorceries.
Asked by Felixlives 11 years ago
I am pretty sure Bioshift cannot target the same guy twice as to trigger heroic but what about Hidden Strings can i target my Battlewise Hoplite tap him then target him again and untap him with one cast of hidden strings? Also what about Martial Glory if i target the same creature with both abilities does it only target him once? I am going to be running a heroic deck this week at FNM and i want to have no questions about my own deck befor i get into it.

Bioshift and Hidden Strings definitely can't target the same creature twice, because they specify that the second target must be "another" creature, ie not the first one.
Martial Glory can target the same creature twice, since it uses the word target twice and does not specify another.
It is worth noting that Heroic does not trigger per time targeted, but per spell cast. In other words, targeting Battlewise Hoplite twice with Martial Glory will only cause Heroic to trigger once.
