Stim patches possibly causing magic loss has always been a rule AFAIK.
KNocked out means also that if your team loses you're just as dead, and
couldn't help them past the first spell. Dead means Doc wagon shows up and
that platinum contract gets deducted for one of your five free
resusitations. It all depends on how the fight goes and what your enemy is
like, so as far as I see it 10 boxes of damage screws you either way.
