Order of Death Prevention Effects
Summary
Death Prevention Effects are effects that stop a unit from dying. Examples of these are Artanis' Guardian Shell and Kerrigan's Torrasque Strain Ultralisk Passive. When multiple Death Prevention Effects are active, it is difficult to predict what order they will trigger. The order of Death Prevention Effects is shown in the following section.
