What happens when my opponent plays Switcheroo on their 2 
unit and my empowered Gangplank, Naval?
Gangplank, Naval will replace his Might being lowered with him being given +3 this turn.
Swap calculates the difference in Might and generates two effects: an increase, and a decrease. When a swap effect is applied to two units’ Mights, it gives those units + and - respective to who has the higher Might.
Under the hood, Gangplank’s replacement effect sees the event of him being given - and replaces it with him being given +3 this turn instead. The event of the other unit being given + is unaffected by Gangplank’s replacement effect. By the time we apply the replacement effect, the difference between the two units has been calculated. In the example with the 2 unit, the final Mights of the two units will be 2 → 6 , and 6 → 9 .
The way this works is not immediately obvious based on how the swap game action rules are written. We will clarify this in a future rules update.
Note that this logic also applies to Mel, Newly Awakened and Switcheroo.
Q. Enemy 1 unit attacks my Leona, Zealot. Enemy plays a Switcheroo on their Focus, targeting their unit and my Leona. I then react with a spell that stuns the enemy unit.
All items resolve and showdown ends. What is the result of combat?
A. You would win combat. The original intention of this question was to ask how much Might the enemy unit would have: It would still be 1.
Leona is a passive ability and will ALWAYS apply the -8 as long as the unit stunned. Snapshotting would only endure (472.3.b.) until layers are reapplied and Leona's might reduction would reapply.
There is an argument that the snapshotting should only occur at the moment stun is applied. I would agree if it was a triggered ability, but Leona being a passive effect changes that notion due to layers always applying repeatedly (471.). With triggered abilities that reduce Might, they are a 1 time occurrence and their value is snapshotted for the duration of the turn. That said, the rules could do a better job clarifying how layers would apply when distinguishing between passive and triggered abilities.
