I tried the RoL SoP combo suggested (back when I was still using mind flayer rather than phylasia) and it was fun and pretty brutal when it worked. When it didn't it was unbelievably frustrating.

I had many situations of "Yes finally got 5 RoL's time to lay down flooded flayas, boi!"

The next turn, I'd be met with an Eagle's Eye; oh and an explosion for the flooding as well.  Either way CC is the one of the most annoying chinks (out of many) in the armor of SoP deck's. Using the Arctic Squid for stalling would be good, but it eats up precious water quanta, which is also needed for flooding--if you're trying to incorporate that too--and the other creatures you're trying to buff with SoP. What makes this so frustrating is that SoP requires too many conditions to get the benefit of the full buff. Water creature + flooding + One turn delay = recipe for disaster if one thing goes wrong.

Nice use of poison, but it feels like abandoning SoP idea for another Phylasia poison spam deck. *shrugs* Maybe it's just me.

how about something in this direction? i know blessings may be faster/better for elite pegasus. but i thought that anything with dive/airborne might be well supported with SoP even with losing one turn.
in the light version it may help to cut out air completely (except the mark) to make more room for heal like sanctuary and add solar buckler opening so eventually space for light dragons.

In my deck (above), I'm trying to make a sustained poison+beatdown deck that balances offence with defence. It needs work for sure, but I like the fact that by using SoP the weak and ordinarily easily CCd creatures in this deck can gain HP. Still work to be done on this idea though.

It's good to see there are so many options with this Shard. I have seen far more possibilities than I expected, when I started playing with this shard.
What I agree with completely about what Dandy said is that getting the full flooded benefit of the Shard is a practical daydream. There is just so much to go wrong.

You probably won't need aether pends, though. A 6th pest is better for early lockdown. The deck looks kinda tight in :aether quanta too... maybe add some towers?
PVE shouldn't be all about copying a deck code and converting time into electrum, score, and potentially rares.
If the only way to derive fun from a game is its PVP content, then non-hardcore players a.k.a. the mass are alienated from the hardcore community.

you have a lot of bone towers for what it needs

since SoP prim element is water, why not consider use death mark, some water pendulum and then work on more acrtic octopus etc. and use water create for main damage source?

I agree. Actually I stopped using this model since I went and actually upgraded the cards (previously it was trainer). Haven't actually thought about the death mark and pends tho, sounds like a good plan
