If a unit has Buff status from Showstopper, and then receives -2 from Blastcone Fae, does it still have the Buff status for Sett Legend's ability to remove and recall the unit?

Ruling: Yes, the unit still has the Buff status and Sett Legend's ability can be used to remove it and recall the unit. Receiving negative stat modifications does not remove the Buff status.

Nuances:

• Buff is a specific status that exists independently from the actual stat modification it provides
• Buff status functions like a counter that cannot be stacked, and this counter persists even when the unit's stats are reduced by other effects
