I'm not sure about this thanks to recent updates, but some units apply/used to apply their buffs a few seconds after their attacks, such as Ciara with her ATK buff. Zephyr used apply his DEF ignore after his attack. In situations like that, you wait a split second and the effect should activate. Most units activate their buffs instantaneously, so this usually isn't a problem
