Your combo lost 15% damage — the sequence is wrong, go watch the tutorial

---

Your combo just lost 15% damage because the sequence is wrong!! Go watch the tutorial first!!

Correct order: trigger the Stagger-state skill first, THEN the Enhanced Attack — Enhanced receives a 1.3x multiplier while Stagger is active. Reverse the order and you lose the modifier entirely.

I've calculated this: correct sequence outputs 2,847 theoretical damage. Your reversed sequence outputs 2,483. That's 364 lost per rotation. Against high-HP opponents, that's potentially one full extra action's worth of damage. Check Episode 8 of the official tutorial — it's explained clearly.

Negative EV card analysis is exactly what newcomers need to learn first. The ceiling trap is how many bad deck choices happen. Good framework.

Combo players need to understand card EV differently — in the combo context, setup cards have negative floor value (dead without combo) but the ceiling value changes the calculation. Context-dependent EV.
