When flipping Fight or Flight as a reaction, do you have to choose the target before your opponent can react, or after they react?

Answer
Ruling: You must declare targets for Fight or Flight when you finalize it (put it on the chain), before your opponent has a chance to react with other cards like Discipline.
Sequence:
- Finalize Fight or Flight by putting it on the chain and declaring your target
- Your opponent gets priority and can play reactions
- If no one plays anything else, Fight or Flight resolves and enacts its effect
Nuances:
- Finalize does not mean resolve - finalize is essentially the first step of playing a spell (similar to "on cast" in MTG)
- All cards with targets in Riftbound require target declaration as the card goes on the chain
- Some cards don't use targeting because both players make choices (like Cull the Weak)
Does this answer look correct?
