{Spoiler Text} Loving Agony

[val] Strike: combat ends and the opposing minion takes 1 damage. Since the damage this card deals is dealt simultaneously with the S:CE effect, may the opposing minion prevent the damage using cards and effects only usable during combat? I would assume yes, as that's why this card follows the Majesty/Earth Meld templating rather than the Catatonic Fear templating, but I'm so often wrong about these things. John Eno

[ quoted text not captured ] I wonder how well that plays with dawn op?

No. The damage isn't simultaneous with the ending of combat. S:CE "ends combat before other strikes or other strike resolution effects are resolved" [6.4.5] >I would assume yes, as that's why > this card follows the Majesty/Earth Meld templating rather than the > Catatonic Fear templating, but I'm so often wrong about these things. It doesn't follow Majesty's template; it lacks "before combat ends".

So Psyche would prevent this damage, and dawn op wouldn't make it aggravated. Like Catatonic Fear.
