Energy Barrier's text reads:

Interrupt: When you would take any amount of damage, remove 1 reflection counter from here -> prevent 1 of that damage and deal 1 damage to an enemy.

My question is, if you are taking damage from multiple sources (e.g., attacks from minions and the villain) does each individual source count as separate instances of damage or are they all lumped together in one instance of damage? I'm leaning toward each is separate, since each attack resolves separately, but I could be wrong.

Wasn't sure if this had come up anywhere else and when I searched I didn't find anything that seemed to mention it.

So, the villain attacks, does damage, you remove counter (doesn't exhaust) , disregard one damage and hit him for one. Then if a minion would attack after, you remove one, prevent the damage and hit minion for one, etc...

That's what I thought. Thanks!

Also, to clarify, the reflected damage can go to any enemy, not just the one that is dealing damage to you. It's a really good way to get rid of tough or pick off weak minions before they get a chance to attack you (Ultron drones) or whittle down those 3 health minions so you can one shot KO them.

I look forward to trying out Stark Tower + Energy Barrier

Woah I didn’t notice that.

Yeah, I liked Protection out of the core set, but now I LOVE protection with the new cards.

I didn't even think of that!
