Skirsdag High Priest and Summoning Sickness
Asked by BlckGaming 12 years ago
Ok. So my Skirsdag High Priest doesn't have summoning sickness. But can I use his ability to tap one of my untapped creatures that were played that turn?

Summoning sickness only prevents creatures from tapping via an ability with the tap symbol. Since Skirsdag High Priest 's ability just says "tap two untapped creatures you control" it doesn't matter whether those creatures have summoning sickness or not.

yes, the creatures do not tap themselves, they are tapped by the demon, just like card:Gideon's Lawkeeper affects a creature; the creature it targets does not tap itself.
So yes you can use the ability on a creature with summoning sickness.
