The utility / power of external synnergy is also affected by whether or not the external source is available under the same element.
E.g. 'off-element' is external interaction which tends to further weaken the availability of the synnergy (in terms of deck design) as opposed to 'in-element' external effects which tend to be easier to accomodate in deck construction.

I think cardinal elements ( :aether :entropy :gravity :time ) are probably the next most obvious choice after material elements since cardinal elements all deal with the dimensions / mediums in which things interact (e.g. time, space, order / disorder) and distortions thereof.
These seem like very good candidates for effects that directly manipulate the position of creatures in the field, hand, and deck while the material elements seem good like good candidates for introduce positionally dependent effects.
I think spirit elements may shine for having creature centric field-effects. E.g. effects that cause a creature to influence the creatures near to it (although material elements could certainly have claim... e.g. proximity damage from fire or frost)
Whether the glass is half full or half empty is a moot point. It is always filled to the brim. It is only a matter of by what. The real question is: What fills you?

Due to lack of consistent activity on this thread, I'm going to make this post as a soft lock to discussion until someone shows enough interest to spearhead it in the long term again.

@All designers: The problem with projects like these is that they often require one strong central leader to take on the hard work and direct the rest of the group to filling in card niches, but often most designers don't have the time to spare or don't wish to commit that heavily to such a project. I strongly suggest for any designer that wants to continue this project or start something this big in the future to consider if you will want to run this in the long term by yourself, because to be blunt that's often what it boils down to complete something like Gaian vs Cthonic.
