Question

If Nova’s ability defeats an attacking enemy, does that enemy’s attack still deal damage?

Answer

No. Although the attack sequence has initiated, damage from that attack has not yet been calculated. If Nova defeats the enemy during this step, the rest of the attack sequence fails to resolve.
