All card rulings

How does combat damage assignment work if your 4 Might unit has both Ki Barrier and Lotus Trap this turn against a 4 Might defender?

You order the replacement effects. With Ki Barrier first, your unit takes no damage and keeps 3 damage prevention. With Lotus Trap first, your unit takes 1 damage and has no prevention left.

Explanation & source

Since the Vendetta rules update, replacement effects on combat damage, including damage increases, apply during damage assignment.
