Answer

Ruling: Focus bounces back and forth between attacker and defender after each action resolves.

Sequence:

  • Defender plays an action
  • Action and any reactions resolve
  • Focus passes back to attacker

Nuances:

  • When a player plays an action, they can choose to hold priority and play a reaction immediately, but this is uncommon and must be explicitly stated
  • A player who plays an action or reaction can continue to hold priority and play additional reactions if they wish
