Episode 3: Akash'Bhuta Victory!!!!

umm....yes...my turn was always there.

Did you deduct from Portal Fiend already?

Actually Tachyon killed off the Portal Fiend, so I just had you redirect it to the only other target, Akash'Bhuta herself!

Oo… I took 2 from Pushing the Limits, so I'm actually at 18. Is that okay? Also, wouldn't Nightmist take the hit, as she seems to be the highest…

Cool. Good turn to Enlighten then. Who wants it? I am thinking Haka.

Oh true, missed out on a couple calculations, so NightMist takes the hit from Ethereal Bonds then, unless there is redirection involved?

Edit: Also by my review, NightMist is currently at 23 before the Bonds hit.

Pydro, Reclaim puts the card on top of your deck for your next draw.

My mistake. (Man I just played that card in another game too). Taking one of the 2 magic cards out then.

Nah. I’ll take it and use Enlightenment.

Yea she was. Then had a net of plus one after my turn. Really messed over the doc when I switched my piles.

EDIT: actually I would have taken out a 2 magic card, but then technically I should reshuffle and draw again. Should I redo the draw, just dump the 2, or just dump Heedless Lash?

EDIT2: Going out of town for a day and just wanted to get my turn in. Not going to make that mistake again.

Notes: NightMist, you may actually want to put a 2 ontop of your deck from Reclaim, since you won't be able to draw a card since you switched your deck and trash with one another.

I don’t have my deck in front of me: can mist fueled be used on the environment deck? If yes would it prevent or force a flip?

Mist-Fueled has to be used on a Hero Deck sadly.

Now, did you want me get rid of the bonds of the entomb? I can change it if you want things to go down differently.

 

Well that messed me over. I won’t have my deck until tomorrow, so I looked at the top card to cast enlightenment. Well now that I have to draw you guys are stuck
Haha!
Seriously though play whatever card of mine you want, I have a minimum magic number of 2.

-----------------

Notes:  I don't know if I should draw any card. Right now I can play spells for the next several turn, but if i draw 3 cards a turn I will run out of my deck.

On a completely not serious note, what would happen to me if I Mist-Fuel Tachy?

This is actually the same turn you were Ethereal Bonds, so can't deal damage sadly NightMist. If you plan on doing a lot of spells and wanting high numbers and comfortable with your handsize than I don't see a reason to draw extra cards.

 

Haka drew a Haka of Battle, Rampage, and Elbow Smash!

Start of Turn:

Nothing

Cards in Play:

Flash Flood (Negative Energy Field)

Use a Power:

Cleansing Downpour (Everyone up 2 HP)

Draw a Card:

Otherworldly Resilience

Trash:

Chain Lightning, Shielding Winds, Ball Lightning, Chain Lightning, Reclaim From the Deep, Flash Flood

-------

I will take the damage. With Cleansing Downpour, Master of Mgic and a Mist-Fueled coming up, I think I am ok with HP. I planned I giving Haka another Enlightenment anyways.

Speaking of which, do we know exactly how much damage we have between tachy and Haka?

If we get another target next turn, I think I will Oblivion (a minimum of 7 damage).

Not wanting to destroy the Ethereal Bonds with the Flash Flood as well?

 

Haka could get a plus 16 his next damage, so nothing too great. I'll probably get rid of the carapace by sacrificing a few cards, then weakening the Phalanges.

 

Edit: maybe I should Rampage... That be able to do 6 to the Carapace and 4 to Phalanges. And if NightMist redirected the Rampage damage to the Carapace that's make it 3 to it bringing it to 3 HP. Thus I could Taiaha the Carapace for destruction and dropping the Phalanges by 4 again to 4 HP.

Fine then I could save Oblivion. Consider it redirected!
