Made slightly bigger.
Can I choose "not to untap it" if it's not tapped in the first place?
...Dwarven Hold had this argument; they changed the rules a couple of times. So I guess you do need to be explicit.
I'm assuming that reminder text doesn't need to be perfectly exact and that the comp rules would cover that question. That aside, what do you think of Focus?
Or you could just add an "If this card is tapped" somewhere in there.
As for the ability, it seems okay. It's not something I would necessarily ever want to do, meaning each card with the ability is going to have to have extra text connected to focus. If that's the case, perhaps it would be better as an ability word.
There are bonuses and downsides to switching to an ability word, the first among them the inability to refer to ability words in card text. It's true, though, that Focus isn't something that can appear on its own, and I consider that a bad thing.
