What to study
The skill tooltip does the whole cost-benefit analysis in one card: damage range and type, the counter that beats it (shields deflect it), the status it inflicts and its exact penalty (-50% Movement), and a single diamond as its cost, all while the range hexes behind it still show where the shot can land. Frame at about 0:36 in the Gameplay Trailer (Steam).
