Simply which element do you think is the strongest by itself?
You should vote for the one youre think is the most strong and not your favorite.
Im kinda trying to decide wich element to go with untill i have enough money too build a rainbow deck.

Oops wanted to vote darkness but clicked light zzz :-\ though coincidentally light is my favorite.

Anyway dark itself has CC PC healing denial so its a pretty 'complete' element. You can easily find a good unupped mono dark here. Fire would be darn good on its own too. And if you don't mind some stalling mono aether works well.

The most powerfull elements are probably either :fire or :entropy .

If you want to start, I'd suggest to go with Fire, since it is as a mono very fast and can overcome pretty much any AI deck with a bit of luck.

Depends if it's unupped or upped.
Unupped it's Monofire. Upped it's Monodark. Death can compete well with both, both unupped and upped.

These are the unconditional spots they have in the meta. If you start introducing environments, more specialised monos like Aether can dominate completely without any real competition at all, whereas monos like Fire and Darkness are strong rather because of their versatility and won't have a 99% winrate against any mono.

If you're starting out, you'd be able to use Monofire the best, because it farms AI the fastest. Honestly though, you can easily pick Fire and improve it by buying some rainbow stuff, à la decks like Ubah Stompy, for instance.

I'll say Darkness, though maybe that's because unupped monodark can grind well in arena compared to other monos. Fire has more firepower but is more fragile overall.
Either way, both elements are complete (in a sense that they can be build into a good mono control. CC and PC in-element, quanta burst for :fire and denial for :darkness)

Also, Dark starter is the cheapest to convert into Unupped monodark arena grinder (regen2k9's monodark) which is good for Arena, AI3, and PvP. Or rainbow starter (Antagon's Grabbow modded)

:fire, :darkness, and :entropy. mainly because these three elements are quite well rounded with all kinds of control as well as powerful offense.

Darkness is boss...Even if you are sick with your mono-darkness, the incredible synergy of darkness with other elements has you a lot fun when building duo decks or even a rainbow.

 :darkness has synergy with almost every element because of its diversity of functions

Cloak --> protect fragile creatures of other elements

Nightmare --> GotP

Devourers --> Various quanta denial technique

Nightfall --> Death creatures

Steal, drain life --> one of the best PC and CC cards in game and can be used in a lot of decks

Liquid Shadow --> Build a Liquid Antimatter and have fun

It is actually one of the worst when used for CC purposes. And you cannot really use it on any other deck besides monodark.

my vote goes to darkness for sure .

For some reason Devourer/Pest always eats what I need it to eat vs a Rainbow opponent . Its rather hilarious actually .

Imp Steal has won me enough games to start valuing it over Explosion . So my vote goes to  :darkness:fire .

3rd for me would be  :death , if for no other reason than the Poison + SoSac decks out there .

Entropy, imo, just because it can counter almost everything thrown at it.

Maxwell's Demon - bye bye rush.
Discord - at least 2 turns' worth of stalling against monos, and often more.
Antimatter/Purple Nymph - counters SoSa and a whole lot more.
Butterfly Effect - :entropy is the only mono with repeatable PC.
Dissipation Shield - an autoquit for many decks.

After that I'd go with :darkness, then :death.
