Shards of Time. https://elementscommunity.org/forum/index.php?topic=39091.msg485993#msg485993

So, as I stated in the Topic SoIWin
I tried to do a Shard Golem with the Scarab ability.

Here's what I came up with:

Hover over cards for details, click for permalink
Deck import code : [Select]
77d 77d 77e 77e 77e 77e 77e 786 786 786 786 7q0 7q0 7q0 7q0 7qb 7qb 7qb 7qb 7qu 7qu 7qu 7qu 7qu 7qu 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 8pl


Since I really don't need much time I decided to go with :gravity Mark and some pends. This way SoR can be used with another SoI. Of course you can still used it to surpass the one turn delay to use the ability of scarabs immediately. The heavy armor's are there to use on scarab because it still takes a while for them to get strong. So heavy armor allows you to devour much earlier.

Some fine tuning is still possible. E.g. -1 Gemfinder + 1 Precog, or a turtle shield or hourglass might fit in somewhere. Anyway, with the amount of shard I got the Scarab Golem pretty fast.
If you think you got the combo out early enough you can change the precogs for rewind to have some more CC.
Another version could look like this:

77d 77d 77e 77e 77e 77e 77e 786 786 786 786 7q0 7q0 7q0 7q0 7q3 7q5 7q5 7q5 7qu 7qu 7qu 7qu 7qu 7qu 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 7ri 8pl

Less :gravity is produced so hourglasses can be used. Because of lots of PC I'm not too sure about the turtle shield. The rest is the same as before.

And last but not least here a deck that provides also some PC against pesky shields.

I am sorry but I fail to see a single point of having the :time part in these decks.

However pairing with gravity making use of scarab and Pulvy is a brilliant idea, therefore here is my suggestion of a mod of your last deck:

Moar Plate Armors for earlier nomming.

Thanks a lot for this suggestion!
Looks great and very focused. I wonder if it's possible to change the Gemfinders for gravity force?

The time was meant to reduce chances of bad draws but I was testing a new combo now and noticed that you draw it often enough even without draw power.
So yours probably works better.

Good job! :)
