In play: Blazing Tornado

Trash: Summon Staff, Imbued Fire

Additional effects:

Turmoil turns up Entomb and Living Rockslide.

The Scholar is tanking all your damage, so Living Rockslide isnt a bad choice right now…certainly better than Entomb.

DV could get rid of Entomb with Mental Divergence if she gets bored of all that Turmoil, but since the top card is almost guaranteed to come out in the environment turn (thanks Wasteland!) there's no reason to not take the Rockslide.

My thinking exactly. 

Yes, let's take the Living Rockslide.

I think Mountainous Carapace is at 9 HP, and Living Rockslide should be in play in the end of turn summary.

I'd also appreciate a list of effects for the environment cards; I can't remember which creature does what... But if it's too much work, that's cool.

Well, not much of a choice then...

If the Carapace was at 9, I killed it with the Lightspeed Barrage.  I edited my turn to reflect that

Are we better off getting limbs under Savage Mana? Carapace isn't dealing us any damage.

I drew another Keep Moving from Fleet of Foot.

HP total for Akash-Bhuta are following Tachyon's turn-edit, minus 9 for Haka's turn.
