When Thousand Tailed Watcher is pushed onto an opponent's battlefield using Accelerate, does its -3 debuff affect a Shen that is played afterwards?
Ruling: No, Shen comes in at full power. Thousand Tailed Watcher's effect resolves once when it enters play and does not create an ongoing aura effect.
Nuances:
- The effect is not "anchored" to the Watcher as a continuous effect
- The debuff only applies to units already in play when Watcher enters, not units played afterwards
