Uh, Try Norrit, or his cheaper cousin Nettling Imp. Force their creatures to
attack then tap to kill them. (This only works on tapping when attacking
creatues). Nettling/Norrit Imps are good also against Time Elementals and
cards that say if the creature attacks the owner takes damage :)

Unless the Time Elemental's controller has 4 mana and an IQ of over 9,
allowing him to use the TE's ability to unsummon itself, avoiding the
effects. . .

My assassin deck is black and blue. I prefer Floods, Twiddles, Icy
Manipulators, Eniverate (that new Ice Age cantrip that taps a card.), and
Nettling Imps. I also use 4 Brainstorms, 2 Diabolic Visions, 1 Jayemdaye
Tome, a Jalum Tome, and Sivitri Scarzasm (sp?) It's a fun deck that no
one will play against me in team games. It's a little slow and leaves
much to desire offensivly, but Sengirs help. It goes through the deck
really quick. Please no flames about how your deck will kill mine,
there's always a deck that will beat another.

Would unsummoning the Norrit work as well (I've been pondering this
for a long time).

One addition that I made to a like deck was Xenic Poltergise (T:
animate artifact). Having a problem with a meddlesome Icy? Jester's
Cap gotcha worried? That Ivory Tower being just a *little* too
benificial? No problem! Just tap the target artifact with your Icy,
animate it with the Poltergise, and then finish it off with the Assassin.
'Nuff said.

Nope. Removing the source of an effect does not remove the effect.
If the Norrit targets the TE, and then in response the TE targets the
Norrit, you end up with:
1) an unsummoned Norrit
2) a tapped TE
3) a TE which must attack or die.
End result; eventually, a dead TE.
Much better to have the TE unsummon itself, if your goal is to preserve the
TE for later use.

No. Destroying or countering the source of a (non-continuous) effect
does nothing to prevent or counter the effect. Norritt's effect isn't
continuous, so Unsummoning it won't work.

Nope, once his effect is announced, is not countered, and the target is legal
when it resolves, then the full effect will happen regardless of the source
of the effect. Since Unsummon doesn't say it counters the special effects of
the creature being unsummoned, Noritt's poke will still work.

Nope. Removing the source of an effect will not counter the effect.
