Answer

Ruling: Yes, during an open showdown triggered by a player's move, other players can play actions that target any player at any battlefield. Combat/showdowns do not limit what can or can't be targeted.

Sequence:

  • A player moves to an open battlefield with a unit, triggering an open showdown
  • Focus passes between players in turn order, starting with the attacker
  • When a player receives focus, they can play actions targeting units at any battlefield

Does this answer look correct?
