I think you're wrong. I mean, how can you know Zanz didn't think about the Fog shield first?
...actually, I can't prove that. :(

But what I can say is that both :air and :darkness should receive new (more distinct) shields from one another, because they're too similar to one another. However, because :darkness 's has a much more distinct theme from :air and it's also more popular than :air, Fog Shield becomes disregarded and probably less used in several decks compared to Dusk Mantle (or other shields).

Of course, that's my opinion. If Zanz decides to bust in here and say "DARKNESS STOLE FROM AIR IN TERMS OF SHIELDS", then I'll stand down corrected. I don't loathe the shield as a card, but I know that I won't be using them anytime soon in a PvP duel or against a false god.

It's obvious darkness stole the idea... they steal everything they can :P

Anyway, what shield could possibly fit air's theme? Freedom of movement... as long as I'm against "flying shield" as a spell that could fly any shield, maybe air could have a shield permanent that could fly itself (as an active ability) and thus allow for cumulative protection at the expense of making itself vulnerable to creature control.
Maybe a 'tornado shield' that protects from 1 damage and has a 20% chance to stun any attacking creature. :air :air to fly itself into an 0/5 creature or something similar?

That would be funny with fractal as it would be the only 'permanent' that would be both possible and useful to use fractal with.

Hmm... you're a proud warrior, unit748596... I like your attitude.
As a sign of my support for :air I'll let :water take second place in the war. Now I still have to choose who shall be third. Any objections if it's :light?
Then the podium will look like this:
1. TIME
2. Water
3. Light

Hmm... seems nice :)
Maybe :life will kill me for not allowing them to reach a higher place, but we sometimes have to make sacrifices for the greater Time (pun intended).

i voted for life, too weak against any solid creature control, and i just dont like it. air is great, with owls eyes, flying weapons, unstable gas and fog shields, great!

life's creatures are above par, the only thing life lacks is good activated abilities, besides it is one of the few elements able to heal itself

healing is so low, pffft

jo, was just my personal preference, i dont understand why air is leading, its so great, with eagle eyes and flying weapons alone you are able to win games, fog shield is a damn fast sissie and unstable gas is ...

Eh. Mono- :light is not bad. Of course, against mono giants like :earth :aether :fire :life :darkness , it pales in comparison, but it is not too bad. Better than mono :air at least.

 :light looks pale against every element.


Before the last few patches, the answer would clearly be  :light , but after hope and bioluminescence I'm not sure.
 :air does have flying weapons, which I love so I can't vote against it.
I think i'm going to go with  :death . Its mono is getting weaker duo to more quintessenced creatures, and less emphasis on creature control with the last patches. Afltatoxin only shines in a duo, Death Nymph is not much better than an aflatoxin, and Mummy is only useful in a duo/tri deck, where death is the least used element. (And I know poison decks are awesome, but IMO the best poison decks are water/death)

Air and Death are the elements that need a new mono boosting card, like Hope.
