Rulings (2)
- If the target is not legal as Freeze in Place tries to resolve, Freeze in Place will be removed from the stack. You won't scry.
- You may target a creature that is already tapped with Freeze in Place. If the target creature is already tapped as Freeze in Place resolves, you will still put three stun counters on it.
