Whenever a creature dealt damage by this card this turn is put into a graveyard, put a +1/+1 counter on this card.
Vampirism?

I know its not an official wotc term but its sensible and short and not hard to remember.

You should remove the redundancy:
Target: creature - tapped
Resolve: destroy

No ability in MTG will ever allow you to code something like:
Target: creature - tapped
Resolve: destroy Land

so the "creature" after "destroy" is redundant.

Here's the "text" version of this ability in Wagic:

Code: Select all

{T}:destroy target (creature[tapped])

You'll want to take into account the zones in which the ability can target. For Wagic, the default one is "inplay", but in the long term you will want to target cards in other areas of the game
