When Ahri's legend effect gives -1 power to attackers until end of turn, and a 1-power token is later buffed by +3 power that same turn, does the token have 3 or 4 total power?
Ruling: The token would have 4 power. Ahri's -1 power reduction is applied once at the specific timing when the trigger resolves, not continuously throughout the turn.
Sequence:
- Ahri's effect triggers and reduces the token's power by 1 (from 1 to 0)
- Later that turn, a spell gives the token +3 power
- The token now has 4 total power (1 base + 3 from spell)
Nuances:
- The "until end of turn" duration means the reduction disappears at end of turn, but it does not create a continuous effect that reapplies when other modifications occur
- Multiple effects happen in the arithmetic layer but are not dependent on each other, so timestamp order applies
