Q: Shilmulo Deception and Revelation of Despair

[Chris Berger]

Let's say that Dedefra successfully blocks an action. She plays
Revelation of Despair to put a corruption counter on the acting minion
and then Petru Sipos plays Shilmulo Deception to become the blocking
minion. Can Petru also play a Revelation of Despair?

The problem is that Shilmulo taps the new blocking vampire, so I'm
guessing that Petru cannot do so unless he plays a Wake, since
Revelation of Despair doesn't make any provisions for being played by a
tapped vamp. Is that correct? It's a shame, since it ruins an
otherwise extremely fun combo, and also a deck that might actually use
the serpentis line of Reformation.
