Ohoyo Hopoksia

When using Ohoyo's ability, does the blocking minion lock or does it stay unlocked ? Considering the timing and [ANK 20190528] , I'd say the original blocker does not lock. On the the other hand, Ohoyo's ability only cancels the combat and replaces it with another one - it says nothing about cancelling the block or thwarting the block resolution. So, which is it ? Ohoyo Hopoksia (Bastet) [Ahrimane] Unique werewolf with 3 life. 3 strength, 0 bleed. When a minion you control is about to enter combat with an acting minion, you may lock Ohoyo to cancel that combat; Ohoyo enters combat with the acting minion instead. She gets an optional maneuver each combat. If she has less than 3 life during your unlock phase, she gains 1 life from the blood bank.

The blocking minion is locked. groups.google.com/d/msg/rec.games.trading-cards.jyhad/Rc8cvYcuniM/vB4K6QxFNWEJ Ohoyo Hopoksia's effet is a replacement effect on the combat part only. It doesn't end the action before the block resolution, it changes a part of it. "is about to" should be "would". Prince of Paris, France Ratings Coordinator, Rules Director

Thanks for the fast answer ! If it ever gets reprinted, a reminder text might help (although there isn't much place ). I saw the ruling you linked but it was not so clear (maybe the blocking minion was already locked ?) - now it's crystal clear ☺︎
