Official rulings

  1. Goatnap can target any creature, even one that's untapped or one you already control. (2019-06-14)
  2. To determine whether the target creature gets +3/+0, look at its creature types after you've gained control of it, untapped it, and given it haste. If it's not a Goat at this time, it won't get +3/+0, even if it becomes a Goat later in the turn. If it is a Goat, it gets +3/+0, even if it stops being a Goat later in the turn. (2019-06-14)
  3. Goat is a creature type. You won't see this creature type printed on creatures in this set, but keep in mind that creatures with the changeling ability are Goats. (2019-06-14)
