When Volibear Furious attacks an enemy battlefield with Ahri, does his 'When I attack, deal 5 damage split among any number of enemy units here' ability kill Ahri before she can deal damage back, or does she get to deal her might back to Volibear?

Answer

Ruling: Ahri deals her damage to Volibear first, then Volibear's ability kills Ahri.

Sequence:

  • When you attack, your "when attacking" abilities get added to the chain
  • Then your opponent's "when defending" abilities get added to the chain
  • The chain resolves backwards, so Ahri's ability resolves first (dealing -2 to Volibear)
  • Then Volibear's ability resolves (killing Ahri)
