If a token is reduced to 1 Might by Blue Ahri's ability, and then receives +5 Might from Grand Strategem, does it go to 6 Might or does it remember the -2 reduction and only go to 4 Might?

Ruling: Once Ahri's triggered ability resolves and sets the token's Might, all subsequent Might changes work normally from that new value. The token would go to 6 Might (1 + 5) after Grand Strategem resolves.

Sequence:

  • Ahri's triggered ability resolves, setting the token's Might to 1
  • Grand Strategem grants +5 Might
  • Token's Might becomes 6 (the debuff is not "remembered")

Nuances:

  • The term "buff/debuff" should be avoided when referring to Might changes, as "buff" is a keyword referring to a specific game object. Use "boost" instead for Might increases.
