Can Janna, Savior's "When you play me" ability trigger if you play her to your base on your opponent's turn?
Yes — with Janna, Savior's current text, her "When you play me" ability triggers and resolves even when she's played to your base on your opponent's turn. [Reaction] lets her be played any time to a location you control, and the 2026-01-14 errata changed her move instruction to "up to one enemy unit," making the target optional — choosing zero is legal, so the ability can finalize without any target (Rule 355.13).
On resolution, "heal your units here" still applies to damaged units at your base; the move instruction just does nothing since enemy units are never at your base.
