Can spell or ability effects that say 'move a unit' (like Charm or Ride the Wind) move units directly from one battlefield to another battlefield without Ganking?

Answer

Ruling: Yes, effects that say "move a unit" can move units from battlefield to battlefield without Ganking. Ganking only applies to Standard Move, which is a different type of movement than general "move" effects.

Nuances:

  • A "valid location" is a location that doesn't break the rules or the card's text
  • If a card specifies "Move a unit to or from a battlefield," then another battlefield would be an invalid location if the unit is already at a battlefield
  • Moving a unit to the opposite base is an invalid location
  • You can target a unit at Vilemaw's Lair with an effect to move it to base, but it won't do anything
