GLOSSARY / Battle Basics
Unopposed Attack
At a Glance
An attack made without Clashing against the opponent's skill. It is different from a Clash Win.
GUIDEHow It Works
An attack without a Clash does not necessarily cancel the opponent's action.
Consider whether the target will be Staggered first and whether its attack will remain.
NOTESCommon Misunderstandings
- Selecting an unopposed attack does not by itself remove an incoming attack.
EXAMPLEWorked Example
Reading unopposed attacks
- An attack without a Clash
