Important! This rules update is effective immediately but is not currently published in the rules document:
As of the release of CR8, when a unit leaves play (capture, defeat, return to hand), all upgrades attached to that unit are considered defeated simultaneous with that unit leaving play. 1.16.5C, which currently defines defeating upgrades attached to units as part of maintaining the game state, is no longer in effect and will be removed from CR9. In terms of card interactions, this means that units with abilities that trigger when upgrades are defeated, particularly Zeb Orrelios (ASH #161), will trigger from their own upgrades being defeated if they leave play while upgraded.
