Rulings

Mar 19, 2021

Skulking Ghost's triggered ability resolves before the spell that caused it to trigger. It resolves even if that spell is countered.

Mar 19, 2021

If the spell that targets Skulking Ghost has no other targets, it won't resolve (because it no longer has a legal target after Gossamer Phantasm has been sacrificed).
