The answer is that Ambush Mode is a separate effect that does not directly modify the listed Ambush %. It provides an additional and separate 50% chance of ambushing.

When you activate a red card does it last the entire fight or just one action and its deactivated? Ive had red cards activated and I’ve attacked a player and ambush mode deactivated after one hit without killing the other player.

The code was double checked to confirm: Ambush mode lasts until you ambush an attacker or change modes by clicking a new card.

Any intention on buffind this tho? in understand that red card were added into the game before the shadow armor some like 10 years ago,
i feel like they are under powered especially that you need Sash to use them in duel. Red card only last one ambush were black card last whole fight.
I think it's safe to say no one use a red card in the last 4 round. If i have to choose between a card that grant a 50% ambush that doesn't stack with
my shadow or a card that negate/rev/crit the choice is kinda easy. I think the red card need a slight buff Because right now with a full shadow armor we
get amount 66% of ambush resist so a proc of 50% on top of our 62% or so doesn't really be as effective as if it was added on top of your actual
ambush chance if we were to use a red card. on top of that, i think that if you were to buff it into this way red card should also last whole fight now because
with all the reviving option we have these day, a single ambush won't really give you a sure win.

It does stack. See my signature for the formula.
