If Hostile Takeover steals an opponent's unit during a showdown at Malzahar's battlefield, does the showdown end before getting Focus to use Malzahar's ability to sacrifice the stolen unit?

Answer
Ruling: The showdown does not end immediately after Hostile Takeover resolves. You will have the opportunity to use Malzahar's ability to sacrifice the stolen unit during the Focus phase.
Sequence:
- Hostile Takeover flips and steals the opponent's unit
- The showdown continues
- After your opponent Passes or uses their Focus, you may use Malzahar's ability to sacrifice the stolen unit
- The showdown ends only after both players pass Focus
