How does Yasuo's 'When I Attack' ability resolve when he moves into a battlefield, and can you respond with action spells or only reaction spells?

Answer
Ruling: When a unit moves to a battlefield and triggers a showdown, all 'When I Attack/Defend' abilities go on an initial chain at the beginning of the showdown. Players can only respond to this initial chain with reactions, not actions.
Sequence:
- Unit moves to battlefield, triggering a showdown
- Initial chain is created with all 'When I Attack/Defend' abilities
- Players can respond to this chain with reactions only
- Once the initial chain fully resolves, the attacking player gets priority and can cast actions first
- After that, both players can play actions
Nuances:
- Actions can only be played when the state is open (no active chain)
- The attacker gets to play actions first in showdowns after the initial chain resolves
