About to start my prerelease need to know, does using {cloudshift} on a creature targeted by a kill spell fizzle the spell?
I'm going to say no because cloudshift resolves first putting the creature back on the battlefield and then the kill spell resolves targeting it.
Edit: if it said return the permanent at the beginning of the next end step, the kill spell would fizzle
As has been stated in a few recent topics on here once an object changes zones it's a brand new object the the spell that was targeting it has no memory of it and will fizzle
It will fizzle (not resolve for lack of a legal target).
If a permanent changes zones and returns, it is considered a new object. Even if it happened within the same spell.

Also, any spells that have that "flickered" permanent as the only target will be countered.
