Melee (Whenever this creature attacks, it gets +1/+1 until end of turn for each opponent you attacked this combat.) Whenever one or more creatures you control with power 7 or greater deal combat damage to a player, untap all creatures you control. If it's the first combat phase of your turn, there is an additional combat phase after this phase.

Rulings (6)

Melee will trigger if the creature with melee attacks a planeswalker or battle. However, the effect counts only opponents (and not planeswalkers or battles) that you attacked with a creature when determining the bonus.

Creatures that enter the battlefield attacking were never declared as attackers, so they won't count toward melee's effect. Similarly, if a creature with melee enters the battlefield attacking, melee won't trigger.

Tifa's last ability cares about the power of each individual creature that dealt combat damage to a player, not their total power.
