Answer

Ruling: No, you maintain control of the battlefield and keep your hidden card. When Lillia moves and her ability triggers, the game enters a Closed State. Under current rules, you only lose control of an unoccupied battlefield during an Open State.

Sequence:

  • Lillia moves from the battlefield
  • Her triggered ability becomes pending on the chain
  • The game enters a Closed State
  • Cleanup occurs, but battlefield control is not lost because the turn is in a Closed State
  • The triggered ability resolves, playing a Sprite token at the battlefield
  • You maintain control throughout due to the Closed State protection, then the Sprite token

Nuances:

  • The previous FAQ #3008 has been deprecated due to rule updates in the Unleashed ruleset
  • Battlefield control can only be lost when the turn is in an Open State
