Actually if the target is invalid it just wont be able to use the ability. A validator in an effect just downstream of the ability just makes the target be known as invalid so it cannot be cast.

The seeker missile ability is pretty straight forward, an Effect - Target ability that uses a Launch Missile effect which then does a Damage effect on impact. To modify it you must get the Launch Missile effect to have a launch effect that uses an Apply Behavior effect that applies a Buff, the Launch Missile effect also has a validator of the Unit Compare Behavior Count type that looks for the Buff. The Buff is set to be hidden and has a duration as long as that of the seeker missile (15 secs). Insert a Set effect between the Launch Missile impact effect and the Damage effect, add to the Set effect a Remove Behavior effect that removes the Buff.

Use a Remove Behavior effect as part of the Set effect used when the Launch Missile effect impacts.

Make the ability apply a buff to the target unit that has a duration/is removed on impact that the autocast validates for.
