Question
If I use pre-emptive strike or attacrobatics to deal damage to an attacking Wrecking Crew member that has one health left, then kill them with that interrupt damage, does that attack still go through? I would assume it wouldn’t because the interrupt kills them as the boost is turned up. I’m also wondering if a future interrupt card can do this for minions, and kill them before the damage is dealt
Answer
If you interrupt an enemy attack to deal damage to that enemy, and the damage is sufficient to defeat that enemy, then that enemy leaves play immediately without resolving the rest of its attack. This is true for villains and minions alike.
