Does Assault (like on Cleave ACTION) work when played during combat after the initial attack designation, and how do attack triggers like Yasuo's work when units enter combat late?

Answer
Ruling: Assault is a passive ability that functions as "While I am an attacker, I have +X Might" and applies whenever the unit has the Attacker designation. Attack triggers ("When I attack...") can only trigger once per combat per unit, but they will trigger the first time a unit gains the Attacker designation even if it enters combat late.
Sequence:
- Attacker designations are checked at the start of combat
- Attacker designations are also checked during every cleanup step
- When a unit gains the Attacker designation for the first time in a combat, attack triggers go on the chain
- Assault bonuses apply continuously while a unit is an attacker
Nuances:
- Attack triggers can only become fulfilled once per combat, even if a unit gains and loses the Attacker designation multiple times
- Units that enter combat late (after initial attack designation) will have their attack triggers fire during the cleanup step when they first gain the Attacker designation
