Poison Dials SoSac [FG][Arena]

[eaglgenes101]

Just wondering... could I make a version of this that has most of the winnage but only 4 SoSac? I'm starting to run low on patience for arena grinding.

[Higurashi]

I'm afraid not. You can compensate to some degree with more SoD's, but I think 5 would be minimum. 6 is a lot better though; many matches require you to draw them fast and reliably.

I'd imagine it's a lot more feasible using 4 SoSa versus FGs than Arena, though I haven't used Poison Dials versus FGs since SoSa's initial release.

It's amazing how powerful this is against FG's:

Oh, was that my arena deck? Because I just left it at rank 2 with 1HP for a day around 2 days ago. (and only one other person left his deck at 1HP in the top 5, but he took his deck down way before I did).
Mine was a speedbow with Ulitharids and SoD's, if you can remember.

[allen.wayne.sears]

i dont remember the stats, but i do remember being amazed... it was a speedbow that never used purity and the only healing it used was 1-2 sanctuaries. I expected the whole time to loss to a purity but never used it! I do know that i poisoned on the first turn and it had well ever 100 health

The SoSac not screwing with Mulligan any more as well as the mirror shield reflecting purify make variations of this deck very good again.

I think the one posted in the OP works fine.

I think the one posted in the OP works fine.

For the last couple of days, I've used a slight modification of the OP... -3 Bone Tower +3 Death Pendulum.  As the SoD now REQUIRE quanta (and no longer can use any "happens to have built up" + remaining ) it helps me be able to summon the SoD ASAP and even against Decay / Dream Catcher / Dark Matter if I get a decent draw.  Also, the improved draws from SoSa having a 2 quanta cost added is quite helpful.

In summary, OP modified per above:

I have since switched to this version of PDials for FG's:

Similar to the rest, but wanted to get my stance change from using pendulums in my comment too since I changed my mind about the pend's helping...

That's interesting, because I feel like I always needed more  to make sure I don't get shorted in order to fuel SoSac.  SoD is just a bonus and especially with only 3, I haven't had the need for much  and I may not even get the SODs till endgame.  Usually the mark does a sufficient job.  With most FGs and opponents I've played in Plat, fueling my SoSac chain is the most important.  Even with a 5:2 - Tower:Pend, I still find myself falling short of  sometimes.
