Battling

Strike

All your face-up creatures get the Strike action added to your pool when you choose the Battle Event. During a Battle Event, your creatures also have First Strike against active blockers. To Strike:

  1. You target a creature zone (typically your opponent's)
  2. If the targeted zone has a creature, that creature must block the attack (passive block)
  3. If not, another creature can actively block if they connect to the targeted zone
  4. If there is a blocker, both creatures fight
  5. If there is no blocker, the controller of the targeted zone is hit for 1 HP, and draws a card

Fighting

In a Fight, both creatures deal damage equal to their Might Stat to each other simultaneously. If at any point (as a state-based action) the damage counters on a creature equal or exceed their Life Stat, they are destroyed. Note that damage counters are NOT cleared at end of turn or step, but can be healed by effects.

However, during a Battle Event, your creatures have First Strike against active blockers: your attacker deals its damage first, and if the active blocker is destroyed, it does not deal damage back. Passive blocks are always simultaneous.
