    Greetigns, i have been asked by a player in my meta how the order of two simultaneous :7: is.

    Since Shona and Hammerhead both have attacks which roll a :*: i think this situation might occur increasingly often but couldn't find anything in the rules for critical block which would give me a solid answer.

    Intuitively i'd say the active player does decide who geos first with those just like with the switches, but i'd like some written rule which enforces this.

    Did a quick search here before posting, didn't find anything i thought qualified as a solid proof.

    While active player decides who uses switches first, that's only the exception, the rule is that Underdog decides in ties and simultaneous timing.

    I partially agree.

    Lets see what Underdog says in the Wiki:
    Now here we see Underdog decides simoultaneous Effects and order of activation on a tie.
    Effects is further defined thusly:
    While i do agree that it makes sense that the underdog does get to decide i currently don't find it evidently supported by the rules as they are written.

    So any pointers here would still be much appreciated.
