So your chances of getting that instant-death skill twice in a row is not very likely, but that does not mean it will never happen. It can happen, and one day it will happen, whether it happens to you or not isn't the biggest problem here...
Hi Xine,

Great writeup. I would note that in regards to your question above, it *definitely* is possible (and been done before in other games) to script in a fail-safe, so that a certain Attack (Instant Kill) can never be executed twice in a row (or whatever stipulation the developer wants). So you can certainly have something like a "5% Chance to use [Uber Attack]" *and* script it to never execute if it was just used (so no back-to-back accidents can happen).
