Official rulings

  1. Creatures that come under your control after Showstopper resolves won’t have the ability. (2013-04-15)
  2. If another player gains control of a creature you control after Showstopper resolves, and then later that turn that creature dies, the creature’s controller when it died controls the triggered ability. That player chooses a creature that one of their opponents controls as a target. (2013-04-15)
