Olympia has used his sword to attack 3 times, each time wagering a might token. He loses the first wager, and wins the second and third. Is he creating 2 gold and 2 might or 1 gold and 2 might?

#

My interpretation: 1 gold and 2 might total.

The first time each of your attacks wins a wager, create a Gold token.

The first time: how often it triggers fully, or limit.
Each of your attacks: what is eligible to trigger it
wins a wager: condition to satisfy to trigger effect
create a gold token: effect to do when fully triggering.

#

Oh I see that the specialization allows multiple wagers on a single attack, so that must be the reason for the wording… so it would be 2 gold and 2 might for my example.

We would have to wait for release notes to confirm but my interpretation of the text is looking for a specific interval.

We are looking for the FIRST time EACH attack wins a wager(there could be multiple on a singular attack)

So attack 1 wager might : lose
Create nothing.

attack 2 wager might : win, create gold from Olympia because it’s the first time “each attack” (This attack) won a wager. Create the wagered might.

Attack 3 follows the same as attack 2.

Olympia would have 2 Might and 2 gold.

Again we’d have to see release notes to be sure but based on the wording of the hero ability. That is my interpretation

Yes I’m pretty sure that’s it. I hadn’t read the specialization at the time of the question in my discord so I was under the impression you could only wager once per attack.

As always; wait for release notes.
But here’s another way to explain Olympia:

“Once per chain link, if your attack wins a wager, make a gold thing.”

I like your description much better, I wonder if there’s a specific reason they used that wording. I’ve marked as solved for now

The interaction for Olympia seem pretty clear to me.

It is written as it is due to the potential for multiple wagers being placed on a single attack. Ie "Up the Ante"

Attacking 3 times with a sword is still 3 separate attacks so would have the potential to win 3 separate wagers.

But if a single attack had 3 wagers in it and win all 3 it would only get 1 gold token from Olympias ability.
