as I remember the 2? are both in the same path, so your bad luck is a bit more understandable. just buy some more

It does seem that sorcery Kings of the Deep are slightly more common than elemental ones, but I could be wrong. How many is "a boatload"? Maybe your game is bugged.

so even counting even distribution, there's a one in four chance that a king of the deep has water or astral as their randoms. so for 5 of them that's a 1/1024 chance. Not great odds, but not unbelievable either.

I just checked my Atlantis game. I have 8 deep seers with the double randoms as follows:

1F
1S
2D
1N
3B

Since this is 7 of 8 for sorcery over elemental, I am definitely inclined to agree with Yossar that sorcery is more common.

I would consider yourself lucky that you got some of the 5 water guys, Frosted, for that looks quite uncommon to me.

Taking data from 2 games:

Game 1

4B
2D
2N
2S

2A

Game 2

3B
1D
4N
4S

2A
1F
3W
1E

Total

22 Sorcery
9 Elemental

Looks like it's about twice as likely to get a sorcery pick. Interesting.
