I should know the answer ot this one but I'll ask anyway and risk
embarassment.

If a minion takes 1 point of damage in the first strike resolution,
prevents with superior Skin of Rock and takes another point in the
second strike resolution, will the SoR apply to that damage too?

No. After a strike resolution, excess damage prevention is forgotten.

Just to clarify, I mean in the same round during an additional strike.

Right. Damage prevention is only good for the current damage, not
for future damage, unless card text says otherwise.

i would think Skin of Rock would only block the second hit.. as first strike
comes before he can do anything. Regardless the card blocks one damage point
from any attack. ( half of 2 hand damage attack for instance)
