I play Alpha Strike targeting my Master Yi, Unstoppable and splitting 12 damage among three of the four enemy units at battlefields. If my opponent plays Flash in reaction, moving two of the targeted units to base, can they then play Repulse and counter my Alpha Strike?
No, unless units move to non-board zones. Targeting relationships persist even when targets no longer fulfill restrictions. Units at base still count toward Repulse's requirement. Only movement to non-board zones severs the relationship entirely per rule 359.3.e.3.
