Blood to Acid Question

Here's a quick question about Blood to Acid: Blood to Acid states: Only usable at close range before strikes are chosen. During strike resolution, the opposing minion takes an amount of damage equal to the damage he successfully inflicts. Superior: As above, but the damage is aggravated. If the opposing minion dodges with an additional strike is this card good against the additional strikes? My view is that since WOTC has always used the terms "Remainder of combat" or "Duration of Round" on cards that have longer effectes than one strike that this card is only effective on the strike it was chosen on. So if I wanted this card to be effective on additional strikes I would have to play it before the additional strike was chosen.

Yes. It works "against" the opposing minion's additional strikes whether or not the initial strike is a dodge. > My view is that since WOTC has always used the terms "Remainder of combat" or > "Duration of Round" on cards that have longer effectes than one strike that > this card is only effective on the strike it was chosen on.
