Discrepancy calculating spell damage

I'm currently farming ghultures for Couch Potatoes, but I've run into a bit of a problem with spell damage. I'm using a Blizzard (250-290) enchanted with Epic (550-590), I have +90% ice damage and I crit for double damage almost all the time. My calculation so far has gone like this:

(250 + 300) * 1.9 * 2 = 2090

This spell should theoretically be doing enough damage to one-shot a 1960 health ghulture, however, in practice it's only doing about 1700 damage. Am I doing something wrong in my calculation, or is there a problem with the game? Thanks

The Ghultures in Mirage have critical block rating, which reduces how much damage they take from critical hits.

If you hover over an attack card and look at the enemy's tab at the top, you can see how much damage they'll take from a critical hit.
