How does Stupefy's -1 Might effect work when a unit loses a buff later in the turn? Does the 'minimum of 1 Might' clause continue to apply throughout the turn, or only at the moment of resolution?

Answer
Ruling: Stupefy applies a one-time might decrease when it resolves, reducing the unit's current might (to a minimum of 1 at that moment). The game only tracks current might, not the -1 as a persistent object. If the unit later loses a buff during the same turn, its current might can drop below 1 (to 0). At end of turn, the unit's might returns to its printed value.
Sequence:
- Stupefy resolves, reducing current might by 1 (minimum 1 at resolution)
- Game tracks only the new current might value
- If unit loses a buff later that turn, current might recalculates and can become 0
- At end of turn, might returns to printed might
Nuances:
- The "minimum of 1 Might" clause only applies during spell resolution to determine how much might is decreased, not throughout the entire turn
- The -1 is not a game object or counter that persists; only current might is tracked
- Duration text ("this turn") applies only to the might decrease itself, not to other parts of the ability like "minimum 1" or "draw 1"
Does this answer look correct?
