Every step is an RNG between normal, good and excellent. Poor always follows an excellent step. Observe is just a way to pass a step without doing anything, except spending the 12cp to use it. Later on, you will also get buffs that last a set number of turns, and then you also need to consider if you want to waste the turn.
So if conditions aren't favorable, it's usually better to wait. Strike while the iron's hot.
