I've written the following code

        {% case NAME %}
         {% when "abc" %}
          {% assign varOne = "123" %}
          {% assign varTwo = "345" %}
         {% when "bac" %}
          {% assign varOne = "321" %}
          {% assign varTwo = "543" %}
        {% endcase %}
        
       <p>{{ varOne }}</p>
       <p>{{ varTwo }}</p>

i wanted to know if shopify allows me to set values like this inside a conditional block in shopify liquid and use them outside the conditional block? are there any scope related implications for the same?

Shopify allow to use {% assign %} method inside conditional {% case %} statements.

{% assign food = 'cake' %}

{% case food %}
{% when 'cake' %}
    {% assign isTasty = 'true' %}
{% when 'carrot' %}
    {% assign isTasty = 'false' %}
{% endcase %}

{{ isTasty }}

This will return 'true'
