Opponents with purify counters die with positive HP

[CaRmAgE]

I was in a match against a commoner that had 11 HP left and 2 purify counters . According to the text, I was to deal 10 total damage, but when I ended my turn, the game acted like I won, while the opponent still had 1 HP. Now, I don't know if the intended behavior is for the opponent to live or die in this scenario, but assuming the original Flash game's behavior, I would expect the AI to still be alive, because purify/poison was always calculated before any other source of damage. If the AI was supposed to die, then it probably should skip the purify step in this scenario.

Unfortunately, I wasn't expecting this to happen, so I didn't get a screenshot of the oddity in action. I did capture the replay JSON of the game, though, so hopefully, that will be good enough.

it is not obvious because there are no animations, but end-of-turn things actually happens in an order.
Poison damage (or purify counters) happen at the very end. The game does always calculate everything that happens, and shows you the result- but it does keep track of if someone dies.

In fact, you get extra electrum in this case: 'first one past the post'. (it also triggers if both players die 'at the same time'- but the player who dies last wins in this case).

Poison mechanic was revised since oetg's engine supports more than 2 players (granted, I never got the interface working to a point that this could be exposed)

As a result in oetg poison/purify counters apply at the very beginning of a player's turn
