It does say that, but in this case I believe the "fight sub phase" counts as a "phase" for this purpose because they say "At the end of a combat, if a unit's opponents are all either destroyed or falling back, or the end of combat pile in was insufficient so that it is no longer locked in combat, that unit may consolidate."

In other words, the "trigger" for being "unlocked" seems to be no longer being in base to base with after the last person swings, which is exactly what would occur if you charged a unit and wiped it out. No interfering steps to trip you up and delay the SfD activation.

See, soul burst happens immediately when a unit dies. If you are in the fight sub phase when this happens, soul burst would trigger during this phase right when the unit dies, not when the phase ends. Therefore you would be locked in combat since it isn't the end of the phase and couldn't charge, move shoot etc.

Would this make the whole charging in fight sub phase Useless? No since a unit that was enengaged near that combat could charge.
