 Once the "pre-fight" effects have finished resolving, the next part of the fight sees the creature's exchange damage with one another based on their power. There are three important Keywords that come into play here:
 *[[Elusive]]: If this fight is the first time the Enemy creature has been fought this turn, then the creatures exchange no damage with one another.
-*[[Poison]]: If a creature involved in the damage has the poison keyword and successfully deals damage to the other creature, the creature who received "Poison damage" is Destroyed.
+*[[Poison]]: Any damage successfully applied via the power of a creature with the Poison keyword during the damage exchange destroys the creature to which the damage tokens were applied. If all of the damage from the creature with the Poison keyword is mitigated by prevention, wards, or armor; the Poison keyword has no effect.
 *[[Skirmish]]: If the Friendly creature has Skirmish, then that creature does not receive any damage from the Enemy creature during the damage exchange.
