Hello,
I have a question about astral slide.
I have it on the board, and my friend have a figure of destiny in play, and he boosts it to a 4/4.
If I slide his figure of destiny, when it will be back on the board at the end of the turn, will it be a 1/1 or a 4/4.
Thanks

1/1. Creatures that leave play "forget" what they were before when they come back (the exception being phasing IIRC, but phasing is...phasing). It's why Sliding out Kitchen Finks removes -1/-1 counters from persist.
I could be wrong, but I doubt it.

you're right. If a permanent changes zones it will be seen as a different object by the game and will not remember what it was and what is was carrying when it was in play previously ,phasing ignores this however.
So a quick trick list for slide would be
A, removing mr finks when it has a -1/-1 coutner on it to get a fresh 3/2 one
B, removing your face-down morph guy from the game (exalted angel anyone?) and get it back face-up
C, removing a random dude with lethal damage on the stack and so getting a fresh new creature (or unanimated land) and still dealig damage
D, removing your mangara from the game in responds to it's ability and removing a permanent from the game. Though it's better to use karakas for this.
