If Incinerate targets a unit at a battlefield and the opponent reacts by moving it with Flash, does the damage still get dealt?

Ruling: No, the damage is not dealt. When the unit is moved in response, it is no longer a legal target when Incinerate resolves.

Sequence:

  • Incinerate is played targeting a unit at a battlefield
  • Opponent reacts by moving the unit with Flash
  • When Incinerate resolves, the unit is no longer at the battlefield and is not a legal target
  • No damage is dealt
