Rulings
You don't choose a target for Snaremaster Sprite's ability at the time it triggers. Rather, a second "reflexive" ability triggers when you pay this way. You choose a target for that ability as it goes on the stack. Each player may respond to this triggered ability as normal.
You may target a creature that is already tapped with the reflexive triggered ability. If the target creature is already tapped as the ability resolves, you will still put a stun counter on it.
