Question: Instant Kill and You're Mine

Byte · 05-06-2011, 11:35 PM

I have Bat Bat in play and a bat shows up. I announce I will use its ability to kill the monster. Is combat over?

My understanding is that players can still play Wandering Monster so I've always interpreted as any instant kill/defeated ability (charm, polymorph potion, ect) doesn't necessarily end combat so that's how I've been explaining the rules. My friend says that since combat is not over he can play "You're Mine!" since it says to "take place of all players in combat." Was that legal since the card doesn't reference any monster eligibility? If so, what happens to the lvl and treasures? I can understand that the treasure would be his, but the levels too?

Assuming the playing "You're Mine!" isn't legal: Let says he plays wandering monster with a weak monster, then plays "You're Mine!" and wins combat, what happens to the level from killing the original bat and its treasure?
