In game
Triggers on first activation each battle.
Trigger
- 800.36aInitiative effects resolve on the unit's first activation each battle.
- 800.36bInitiative is its own first-activation gate and is tracked per unit per ability; it does not consume the separate nth-activation counter that other cards use.
- 800.36cAn adjacent ally that grants Initiative repeats causes the Initiative effects to resolve again, once per granted repeat, immediately after the first resolution.
- 800.36dEach repeat rolls its own random outcomes, so repeated Focus-weighted picks can select different units.
- 800.36eAn effect can also push an ally's Initiative effects to fire early; those resolve on the ally, with the ally's own target and stats.
