If Leona, Zealot is played after Ember Monk receives a +2 Might buff from a mid-showdown trigger, does Leona still reduce the Monk's Might to 1?

Ruling: Yes, Leona's continuous effect applies after all snapshot/one-time effects are calculated, reducing the stunned Ember Monk's Might to 1 regardless of buffs received earlier.

Sequence:

  • One-time effects (like Ember Monk's +2 Might trigger) are calculated first
  • Continuous effects (like Leona's -8 to stunned enemies) apply after all one-time effects
  • Leona's reduction applies last, setting the final Might to minimum 1

Nuances:

  • This follows a layering system where snapshot effects resolve before continuous effects
  • The minimum clause in Leona's effect means the unit will have at least 1 Might after her reduction
  • This ruling is based on designer clarification that Leona "applies last"
