Answer

Ruling: Snapvine will still deal damage if the unit is moved to a different battlefield. Snapvine's ability verifies that the target is in a battlefield, not that it's in the same battlefield.

Sequence:

  • Snapvine's ability triggers when played into a unit in a battlefield
  • The trigger creates a chain, allowing Reactions to be played
  • If a Reaction moves the unit to a different battlefield, Snapvine still deals damage

Nuances:

  • Actions like Ride the Wind cannot be played in response to Snapvine's trigger (only Reactions can respond to triggers)
  • If a Reaction moves the unit away from any battlefield entirely, Snapvine will not deal damage

Does this answer look correct?
