    Freerunning

    Rules

  • If the target creature is a legal target but isn’t destroyed, most likely because it has indestructible, you’ll still draw a card if another creature died this turn.
  • If the target creature is an illegal target by the time Chain Assassination tries to resolve, it won’t resolve and none of its effects will happen. You won’t draw a card even if another creature has died this turn.
  • Once an Assassin creature or commander you control deals combat damage to a player in a turn, you can cast spells for their freerunning costs for the rest of that turn. It doesn’t matter what happens to that Assassin or commander after that.

    Rules

  • As Soul Shatter resolves, first the opponent whose turn it is (or the next opponent in turn order, if it's your turn) chooses a creature or planeswalker they control with the highest mana value among that player's creatures and planeswalkers, then each other opponent in turn order does the same, knowing the choices made before them. Then all of the chosen permanents are sacrificed at the same time.
