I determined earlier today (in a fortuitous set of circumstances with both my accounts) that the game absolutely determines every point of combat damage before any battle scene hits your screen. The lost cube issue could strictly be an abstract timing issue that may not have a viable solution.

To the issue raise by 24.189.164.116 - Yeah that SUCKS, happens to me all the time during team episodes! But there's little you can do about it. The game only updates the damage on your queue screens every 20s or so (it does have little skips, there's definitely a synchronization issue at times), so by the time you see the boss, tap "Accept", change screens, select your cube outlay, and tap "Confirm" (at which point the game will calculate all the damage), it's entirely possible someone could have already been in that process as to tap "Confirm" even a few milliseconds before you and cause you to miss a boss or worse, miscube it.
