The useful order

Verdict, turning point, then context.

Apex begins with result, score, performance rating, total equity lost, and the costliest decision. The review workspace then joins the board, played move, first-ranked move, alternatives, explanation, and outcome data. The game timeline and optional luck provide context without displacing the decision.
