Water Starter Deck

Displace moves an opposing entity from the Garden back to its owner’s Alley without activating its effects, and your opponent can only portal one entity per turn back out. Puddle Abduction (cost 4 or less), Lowtide Jack (cost 3 or less when portaled), Back Alley Abductor, Gabu (cost 2 or less), Drowncalling Siren (base cost 3 or less) and Tidal Wave (every opposing entity costing 3 or less) clear the front row while turning on Hei Lian’s 1-IKZ +1 attack.

Rainworn Gate lowers an opposing Garden entity’s cost by the portaled entity’s Gate Power until the end of their next turn, letting Gabu, Lowtide Jack, Submerging Tides, Inoe, Puddle Abduction and Tidal Wave reach bigger threats. Torrentstep Provoker, Kōga lets your opponent play a base-cost-2-or-less entity into their Alley on arrival, helping crowd their Alley so Gathering Tide, Rowan, Blue Haze, Kai and Ninpō: Healing Stream all power up, while Drowned Passage locks their Gate shut for a full turn.

From AZK-02 boosters, Back Alley Punk gets +1 attack once a turn when an opposing Garden entity is displaced, Relic Runner Shao swings for 4 once their Alley holds two entities, Flow of Fortune draws up to 3 cards off their crowded Alley, Waterthread Bracelet bounces or displaces an opposing 1-drop for 1 IKZ, and Qingyue drops in cost for Hei Lian plus every Whirlpool entity in your Garden.
