Bonjour,
Vouloir activer une capacité (ou lancer un sort) sans cible valide pour chaque occurrence du mot "ciblé" est impossible.
Néanmoins, si une telle action est entreprise ("oops, j'avais que ta créature était protégée contre le noir"

), c'est une action illégale et on revient en arrière juste avant l'activation de cette capacité (ou le lancement de ce sort).
715.1. If a player realizes that he or she can’t legally take an action after starting to do so, the entire action is reversed and any payments already made are canceled. No abilities trigger and no effectsapply as a result of an undone action. If the action was casting a spell, the spell returns to the zone it came from. The player may also reverse any legal mana abilities activated while making the illegal play, unless mana from them or from any triggered mana abilities they triggered was spent on another mana ability that wasn’t reversed. Players may not reverse actions that moved cards to a library, moved cards from a library to any zone other than the stack, or caused a library to be shuffled.
