When you move Lee Sin and he becomes exhausted, does he get his self-buff, or do you have to specifically exhaust him in place to get the buff?
Ruling: Moving Lee Sin does not trigger his self-buff. You must use his activated ability (which exhausts him as a cost) separately to buff him.
Sequence:
- If you move Lee Sin, he exhausts but does not get buffed
- If you want to buff Lee Sin, you must use his activated ability (exhausting him as the cost)
- You cannot do both in the same action since both require exhausting him
Nuances:
- Lee Sin's buff is an activated ability with exhausting as a cost, not a trigger that occurs whenever he exhausts
- Moving uses a Standard Move action that exhausts him, which is separate from his buff ability
