Talk:Maarek Stele (TIE Defender)/@comment-86.2.117.192-20170301150657/@comment-454133-20170301164830

Hmm... You could also interpret the order as first suffering a critical damage, and then as a result, receiving a face-up card. In that case I'll Show You The Dark Side would trigger first, then Maarek, meaning Maarek would always dominate by replacing the crit (and Dark Side would have no effect).

But if they are simultaneous, then there's another snag: Maarek is triggered for you, while I'll Show You The Dark Side is triggered for the opponent (since the condition is "theirs" and refers to them as "you"). Two players triggering effects simultaneously relies on initiative order:


 * If you have initiative, you resolve Maarek first.


 * If they have initiative, they resolve I'll Show You The Dark Side first.

Hrm... I have a sneaking suspicion the rabbit hole could go much deeper. As you guys have said, this really needs a FAQ.
