Adding damage to a strike that does not deal damage has no effect, so the strike still will not do damage. [RTR 19960221]

Additional damage inherits all of the properties of the base damage. [RTR 19970630] [TOM 19960225]

[val][REFLEX]Cards are not replaced during the "as played" window. The cancelation must be played immediately: no other effects can be used, except for wakes (eg. neither {The Barrens} nor {Dreams of the Sphinx} can be used). [LSJ 20061207] [RBK playing-a-card] [LSJ 20061013]

[val][REFLEX]If the canceled card had a "do not replace until" clause (or alternate replacement like {Steely Tenacity}), that clause is canceled as well and the card is replaced normally. [LSJ 20080630] [LSJ 20011023]

[val][REFLEX]The canceled card has still been played. The same reaction or modifier cannot be played again by the same minion. Any card which text prohibits to play more than once cannot be played again. [ANK 20190104] [RBK cancel-a-card] [LSJ 19980212]
