That's a really interesting idea that should be obvious but I've not seen before (though obviously would need to jump through templating hoops).
hows this? Destroy target creature. If Kill It becomes the target of a spell or ability, copy Kill It choosing a different target. Would also need to be uncommon.
That wouldn't help much if you play Kill It targeting their Mogg Fanatic. Fork would also do double duty on it.
I think the ability probably should be "If ~ would be countered by a spell or ability, instead choose a different target for it". If you target a Mogg Fanatic, you probably deserve to have it fizzle :)
Retargeting on fizzled resolution is trickier because (a) it has to be optional so you don't get an infinite loop if there's no legal target and (b) you have to back up to before it started resolving.
Simplest - just make it "You may instead" - you may allow it to be countered if you like. (The cases where you'd like that to happen are vanishingly rare)
