Official rulings
- Gaining control of a creature doesn’t cause you to gain control of any Auras or Equipment attached to it. (2014-07-18)
- The ability will trigger only if you control each creature on the battlefield with the greatest power as the beginning of combat step begins. If another player controls a creature with the greatest power or tied for the greatest power at that time, the ability won’t trigger at all. (2014-07-18)
- The ability will check its condition again as it tries to resolve. If, at that time, another player controls a creature with the greatest power or tied for the greatest power, the ability won’t do anything. (2014-07-18)
- “Each creature on the battlefield with the greatest power” may be a single creature if each other creature has less power. (2014-07-18)
- The ability can target any creature an opponent controls, not just one that’s tapped. (2014-07-18)
