Which damage gets prevented?

So in a game of @mtg@mtgzone.com the other day, my enemy attacked with Mons's Goblin Raiders and Ghyrson. Which would normally deal four damage total then two more from Ghyrson. But I had played a Bandage, preventing "the next" damage. If that next damage is the one from the Goblins, I don't get the extra Ghyrson damage, so that's why it matters.

There was no first strike in this particular situation.

@xgranade @Sandra @mtg you wouldn't, and there are *many* similar interactions, so having a solid reference isn't surprising.

@xgranade @Sandra @mtg that unded like i'm impjying you are shocked there is an answer.

I'm not, i'm just tired after driving home after an excellent weekend of judging. Good night (before i imply more things i don't mean)

@lovestha @Sandra @mtg I didn't read it that way at all, it's helpful context, thank you! I'm absolutely not a judge, so I appreciate learning more about!

So in the end I am safe from Ghyrson shooting me with his autostubs? Then we played it right.♥︎
