2/3bb/5bbb damage. This model flips a card which may not be cheated for every
model within p3 of the target. All models which receive a Crow suffer 2 damage.
Wong hits and flips for damage, getting severe - 5 with three blast markers. The markers are placed, and Kirai is damaged but not killed. Does Kirai use Malevolence now, or does she wait for Wong to perform the pulse damage flip in the action?
Malevolence: After a friendly Living or Undead
model within a6 suffers damage from an
enemy Attack Action, this model may discard a
Soulstone or a card to summon Ikiryo into base
contact with the Attacking model.
Way I ruled it:
Since "After ... suffers damage" is not a timing as defined in the rulebook ("after damaging" is not the same as "after ... suffers damage"), the ability must occur at the earliest possible time, so it would happen after the damage flip / application but before the pulse damage, all inside Step 5.
How do other people play it? Is there a solid counter-argument to the above (like if Justin said "after ... suffers damage" does have the same timing)?

This came up in a tournament a bit ago.
Wong uses Lightning Jump targeting a Flesh Construct in base to base with Kirai.
