Can you play a unit directly to a battlefield you control, or does it have to go to your base first?

Ruling: You can play a unit directly to a battlefield you control. You do not need to play it to your base first and then move it.

Nuances:

• You must control the battlefield before playing a unit there, but you can conquer it and play a unit there on the same turn
• Units can only be played to your base or a battlefield you control
• Viktor legend can play units directly to a battlefield you control, but Viktor champion cards specify "into your base" and cannot
• You cannot play units (including Shen or tokens from Sprite Call) to a battlefield you are attacking but do not yet control
