When combat resolves at one battlefield, does damage get removed from units at other battlefields that were not involved in the combat?
Ruling: Yes, when combat fully resolves, all marked damage is cleared from all units at all locations, including units at battlefields that were not involved in the combat.
Sequence:
- Combat occurs at one battlefield
- Combat fully completes and enters the resolution step
- All marked damage is cleared from all units at all locations simultaneously
Nuances:
- This applies even to damage dealt earlier in the turn (such as from Hextech Ray) to units at different battlefields
- This rule is not intuitive and can lead to misunderstandings about staging or baiting reactions
