If Yasuo deals damage to a unit when attacking, then is moved back to base before combat resolves, does the damaged unit heal or does the damage persist?
Ruling: Once Yasuo attacks and triggers combat, a combat cleanup will occur at the end of the showdown. During cleanup, units heal all damage unless they were killed.
Sequence:
- Yasuo attacks Battlefield A, triggering his ability and dealing 6 damage to a unit
- Yasuo is moved back to base via Ride the Wind
- Combat showdown completes
- Combat cleanup occurs, healing all surviving units
Nuances:
- If the 6 damage killed the unit (reduced it to 0 or less might), it remains dead
- If the unit survived the damage, it heals back to full during combat cleanup
