"if you know what you're doing and get lucky, you can win extremely fast."
I would turn that around. The luck factor in Fluxx is staggeringly high. However, what makes Fluxx fun is that it does not make any attempt whatsoever to hide that fact.
My problem with SoC is that it has a very high luck factor, but that the game also tries very hard to hide that fact.
The expansion Cities and Knights or using a deck of cards with the dicerolls make SoC bearable.
