The conceit here is that Reversal happens during the attack, too suddenly for it to be affected. As Reversal mirrors Cormin the Dark ‘s Facade, I imagine those issues were addressed during Cormin ‘s creation.

The current version of reversal actually does not mirror Cormin’s ability.

EDIT: For Reference...

FAÇADE
If Cormin the Dark is targeted for a normal attack from an opponent’s figure, you may roll the 20-sided die. If you roll an 11 or higher, choose a small or medium figure you control that is within 4 spaces of Cormin. Switch Cormin with the chosen figure. If you do, the attacking figure must attack the chosen figure, if possible, and cannot attack any other figure this turn. Figures moved by Façade never take any leaving engagement attacks. You cannot roll for the Façade power more than once per turn.
