When you start a fight, the defense team has turns until next slash attack (from 1 to 4 so far is what I have encountered).
Is this purely random or maybe affected by the position of the hero or any other factor ?
I’m fairly certain that minor slash/AI hits are random but the next slash attack special attack is dictated by mana and you can tell by the indicators when they will fire (with a caveat, mana doesn’t work the same for defense as offense and the moment your opponents mana is charged, they will fire and not wait for their turn)
As far as I can tell turns 1, 2, 3 and 4 are randomly assigned, then the fifth hero gets a random turn in a 1-4 range.
Position doesn’t seem to matter - at least, not trivially.
