A topic from AEG's L5R CCG Rules forum, copied for Oracle of the Void from a copy of the forum saved in October 2015, so pages it didn't save are missing. Players' names are left out; the rules officials are named. Rulings are as they stood on these dates; later rulings, the rulebooks and the Rules Archive may differ.
The text on Blade of Champions reads:
Reaction: When a Battle action would target a card in this unit, bow this card: The action targets another of your cards instead, if legal.
My question is, Who decides what the new target is, providing there is a legal alternative?

This is the phrasing used for a change in targeting - the new target is chosen by the person activating the ability (the controller of Blade of Champions)
