Bob’s ‘But How!?’ and Bleed damage

[hebisaur]

Hi there,

If an injured Bob with one health left activates, does he get KO’d due to the bleed as it damages after he gets an activated token? Thanks

Correct, in this scenario Bleed damage occurs at the end of the activation, after the activated token is placed, meaning that But How!? will not prevent Bob, Agent of Hydra from being KO'd.

After the Core Rules update on November 22nd, 2021, the answer for his has changed.

The placement of the activated token is now the final step of end of activation effects.

This means that Bob will take the bleed damage before the activation token is placed and thus end up dazed as a result of But How!?
