I just played a match with my geos against a JKR team. GMY went first and copied his buffs (plus foresight) to everyone. My GBA went second, so I used his first special.I read his first special to say “dispel all buffs on all enemy units THEN deal damage to all enemies...” However, this ability seems to work like this “deal damage to all enemies THEN dispel all buffs on units that were damaged.” I expected this ability to dispel all buffs that GMY had just distributed, but instead the aoe attack only missed hitting all enemies (due to foresight). After the attack, all enemies still had buffs (except my target but that was due to sun fac’s Basic).Is this WAI?

Dispells can be evaded. So likely it was evaded due to the foresight, then the attacks happened.

The first special does not read like that. The only "then" is after dealing damage and exposing, debuffed enemies lose 15% tm. And you should check if you have the omega on that ability, the ability does not remove buffs if the omega is not present

Soft counter. JKR will still stomp them on offense (just mark and kill GBA and it's over).
