Why it matters
The combat ShowdownA Showdown is a structured opportunity for players to act when a Battlefield is contested.View in Glossary ends before combat damage. Damage, Combat CleanupAn automatic rules check that handles winning, lethal damage and board conditions before play continues. It is not an action you choose or normally announce, and an ordinary check does not heal units.View in Glossary , the result and control or scoring checks follow, with relevant triggered effects handled between stages.
