Critical Hit

Critical Hit X: A cumulative ability triggered during the pending damage POP that means, "If you rolled at least one natural six with this unit's attack dice, this unit does X more damage for this attack." Only one natural "6" counts in the attack roll after re-rolls. If a unit gets the Critical Hit ability after you roll attack dice, it's too late to affect the damage. Accuracy can't increase the die roll to a natural "6". However, you or your opponent may use an effect to re-roll dice to affect the number of natural sixes. (You only count the six, if any, from the roll used for the attack.) Critical Hit applies only to dice rolled for an attack, not to dice rolls for abilities like Retaliate.

Evade

Evade X: A layered ability activated during the damage prevention POP that means, "Prevent up to X damage to this unit." You can play Evade only once for each instance of damage. You don't have to use all of the Evade. You choose how much damage to Evade up to X, even if the full amount of damage or more is pending.

Redirect

Redirect: An activated ability that means, "If this unit is attacked, choose one of your other units that can be attacked and damaged in this arena. The attacking unit attacks the chosen unit instead." Precision will cut through Redirect just as it cuts through Intercept. However, there are cards that can cause a unit to lose Precision, or part of its game text.

Cunning

Cunning: An isolated, static ability that means, "Roll this unit’s attack dice secretly. Show them to your opponent after damage prevention."

Absorb

Absorb X: An activated ability that means, "Prevent up to X damage to this unit, and it gains power for its next attack equal to the amount of damage prevented this way."
