Observations
Attention
: If a player has 3 life points left, and a Broadbacked Protector and the opponent has a Leviathan, in case the owner of the Broadbacked Protector isP1
he will go first to 6 life points and then will receive 3 damage, staying alive. In case the owner of the Broadbacked Protector isP2
, he will first receive 3 damage from Leviathan, going to 0 life points and that will make him lose the game even though he heals 3 afterwards with Broadbacked Protector. If none of the players lost during the Roundstart stage, the game continues with both players going to the Draw Cards stage, and the round continues normally.Final Considerations
