| Can you trickbind/stifle something like Pithing Needle or Body Doubles "As *This* Comes into play" ability? Also, could you hit Revillark's "When *This* leaves play"? |

You can only trickbind triggered abilities, and activated abilities. Activated abilities are the form of Cost : Effect.
Triggered abilities like gypsy said start with the words When, Whenever or At. |

Just to clear something: the cost can be paying mana, tapping (both the Tap arrow or simply saying tap and untapped something), sacrificing something, discarding a card, paying some life or even nothing at all. Old cards used to have a 0 before those but new ones have nothing. |

Just want to add that returning something to its owner`s hand can also be a cost. |
