When a unit is recalled (e.g., by Zhonya's), does it keep buffs, counters, and other persistent effects like tracking how many times it has moved?
Ruling: When a unit is recalled, it keeps everything except assigned damage. The card does not actually leave the board when recalled, so recall does not change anything on the card.
Nuances:
- Recall is not a move
- The unit maintains its ready/exhausted state
- Buffs and counters are retained
- Movement tracking (like Yasuo's move count) is retained
