Hello! First post here! I started playing Modern Faeries. Question on Mistbind Clique: when I cast it, and have two fairy rogues on the battlefield, the text says just to exile a fairy I control. It doesn't say target. So if I attempt to champion Fairy Rogue 1, my opponent responds by bolting it. Can I still champion Fairy Rogue 2?
Yes you can, your reasoning is correct. You choose what to exile only as the champion trigger resolves.

I'm a former judge (lapsed), who keeps up to date on rules and policy. Keep in mind that judges' answers aren't necessarily more valid than those of people who aren't judges; what matters is we can quote the rules to back up our answers. When in doubt, ask for such quotes.
And if you gave your opponent the opportunity to react to the champion trigger before trying to resolve it, he lost his chance to kill any faerie before you champion it away, if he didn't respond then.
