If a 4 might unit with assault +1 attacks a battlefield and the opponent responds with Void Seeker, does the unit die or survive?
Ruling: The unit survives because assault applies when a unit becomes an attacker, which happens before the opponent can play actions like Void Seeker.
Sequence:
- Unit with assault +1 declares attack on battlefield
- Unit becomes an attacker and assault triggers, increasing might to 5
- Opponent gains priority to play actions
- If opponent plays Void Seeker at this point, the unit has 5 might and survives
Nuances:
- Assault only applies if there is an opposing unit at the battlefield; if attacking an open battlefield, assault would not be active
