Do you think you'l be a better master then TerroKing?It would be a blunt lie, if I said: "Yes, of course" since TerroKing has proven himself to be a really good master.
Do you think that your better then the other contesitants?Well, weather it is the blessing of RNG or I'm better in PvP that lead to my victory in Phase 2, I honestly don't know. Maybe it was just the healthy comination of enough skill and luck.
What qualities do you think are best in a master?Actually I don't think there is a big difference in between the qualities a master or any other player should have. (S)He should be respectful to others, even if he gets offended once or twice, (s)he should be able to stay calm and solve problems in a nice manner. Also connected to that is fairplay, which I think is even more important than high l33t roxx0r skillz. I wouldn't like to follow a master to war who would do - anything - to win (though he should of course do his best ;) ). It can be fun to laugh at your own mistakes, too sometimes.
Why earth?When I joined the trials, I didn't much think of it actually. I just wanted to join and Earth still had a free spot. But now, there I've passed phase 1&2 of the trials, I've started to like Earth more and more. Many heavy hitters, quanta control, a big shield, anti-PC, PC, CC and a even better Miracle than Light has (oh noes, there goes my vote from the Team Light :'( ). Earth is more versatile than I thought in the beginning so I love it more and more ;)
What does Earth symbolise for you?Earth as the big rock we are living on symbolises many things for me.
What will you do for this element as a Master? What is your vision?To be honest, I didn't think much about what needs to be done for my chosen element.
What does the Element Earth symbolize? (Be precise, concise and complete)In a nutshell: earth symbolises stability, sturdines, hard work, patience.
What types of cards does Earth need in game to finish covering the Element Earth?Earth has everything important to elements, except for one thing: interaction with other elements.
Many people see Earth for its feared Graboid, and think almost every other card sucks. How would you prove them wrong?The only card in Earth that suxx is the Gnome Rider | Gnome Gemfinder. Everything else is just awesome, if used at the right time.
What do each of you feel that you can bring or do for :earth that is not being done now?The answer here will mostly be the same as I answered: "What will you do for this element as a Master?"
Do you ever feel like :earth has grown stale for you?No, defenitely not.
Q: If you can, express your playing style in a poem (length doesn't matter) when it comes to using Earth cards in decks.The title will most likely be changed when I find a more fitting one, but here it goes:
The Roach in ElementsI'm sneaky
I'm kinky
I will see all of your moves ahead
You won't believe you're already dead
You are not agile
You're rather fragile
Playing a quick rush
It will be but a flush
It could also be a stall
Passively making you fall
In the very end
RNG is my friend
Rather than fail
I will prevail
Why do you like the :earth element?Mostly because of its versatility.
What is your favorite :earth card?I don't really have a favorite card in earth. It always depends on what deck I am building. But the ones I like most are these:
What is your favorite synergy with :earth?Earth + Gravity is defenitely my favorite.
Air in elements has lots and lots of damaging CC, many flying but rather small creatures and really annoying shields.It is one thing to know thyself. It is another to know thy enemy.What is Air?
What (war legal) decks would you build to defeat these two decks?1st:
The decks should be all unupped and preferably not involve and nymphs as you don't know who will have to face down the decks.
Also, though the decks should be targeted counters, they shouldn't fall apart against other decks.Code: [Select]4vj 4vj 4vp 4vp 4vp 4vp 4vp 50u 50u 50u 50u 50u 50u 50u 50u 50u 52o 52o 52o 52o 52o 52q 52q 52r 52r 52r 52r 52r 542 542

Earth based CC bow. Nothing special about this.Which of these qualities should a Master have and why?(Pls choose one from the list.)This Question has mostly been answered already. -> "What qualities do you think are best in a master?"
Honesty,Compassion,Passion, Diligence,Integrity,Patience,Respectful,Attitude or Others.(if any)
Which of these qualities should a Master NOT have and why?(Pls choose one from the list.)- Boastfulness. I think it isn't too bad if a master is boastfull. Just gets people annoyed, but to be boastfull, you must have first achieved something good.
Boastfulness,Proud,Laziness,Disrespectful towards others,Dishonesty,Ill-Tempered, or Others.(if any)
Do you think you'l be a better master then TerroKing?I... Think I can skip this question.
Do you think that your better then the other contesitants?I'm not exactly a contestant, but, well, I played with many of them in war, Lava Golem was in another element but I acknowledge his PvP master abilities and skill, he;s been part of the community and PvP events for a while now. Legit and $$$ were both in my team, and I can safely say they are both extremely good at both deckbuilding and actual play, the heart of Elements PvP. Kakerlake... I have no idea >.> I had never seen the name before he signed up, but his domination during the PvP section gives him quite a bit of merit. Looking at the decks, they were very well built. I don't know exactly what to expect from Kake (Or Kaker?) but I'm certainly not going to underestimate him.
What qualities do you think are best in a master?You've got to be dedicated and willing to spend time doing your various Masterly activities, but otherwise they're not much different than your average PvPer.

Q: If you can, express your playing style in a poem (length doesn't matter) when it comes to using Earth cards in decks.Now that's what I'm talking about! A real challenge =) Quite random but Entropy rox as well anyway ;)
Do you think you'l be a better master then TerroKing?Well, I don't know anyone named TerroKing, but if your talking about Terroking, then honestly, I do not know. I think I definitely have the potential. I am more active, but the only problem is, that Terro is ridiculously good at PvP, something that I lack in. While I am a "meh" level PvP'er, I'm not amazing. But to the question, Yes I think most likely I will be better.
Do you think that your better then the other contesitants?Better, No. In my opinion, none of us are BETTER then the others. I'll break it down Person by Person.
What qualities do you think are best in a master?Activity, and Respect.
What do each of you feel that you can bring or do for :earth that is not being done now? This goes for TerroKing as well. You have been around for a long time now, do you ever feel like :earth has grown stale for you?I feel like I can represent earth, much the same terro does, but more actively.
What does the Element Earth symbolize? (Be precise, concise and complete)Earth represents resilience and adaptation. It can stall, and then rush as well. It can play a domination style, or a charge deck. It is so versatile, you can never think what an earth player will do.
What types of cards does Earth need in game to finish covering the Element Earth?A) A unique mechanic.
What does Earth symbolise for you?Umm, Oldtrees kinda asked the same question :-X
What will you do for this element as a Master? What is your vision?I would try my best to lead it well in War, and try to represent it in any other PvP events as well.
Many people see Earth for its feared Graboid, and think almost every other card sucks. How would you prove them wrong?Best laugh of the day. Who dares think every other card sucks? Let's get something straight.
These trials are so legit I'm even going to ask something. It's quite simple actually.My answer is quite simple as well, actually. :P
Why earth?
Disclaimer: Not answering this question will probably result in me not giving a vote to you, regardless of your standing.Will edit this...
I'll be honest, this one (alongside two others) are the most random questions I came up with. :P I'm not looking for perfect syllable and word usage, but if you can whip up something that can just make me smile, you get extra brownie points. :)
Q: If you can, express your playing style in a poem (length doesn't matter) when it comes to using Earth cards in decks.
Do you think you'l be a better master then TerroKing?Terroking is definitely a veteran everyone has known, he's contributed a lot to forums and knows a lot about the game itself. On those things he's probably better than me at. So far.... :) Although I think I can say that I'm a lot more active and able to help out more if people ask me questions.
Do you think that your better then the other contesitants?
What qualities do you think are best in a master?
These trials are so legit I'm even going to ask something. It's quite simple actually.So... Why earth, before the trials I went to the Trials-Rules page and saw the masters chart. I saw that Terroking was one of the un-defeated masters in the chart, so I thought, why not take him down? :) If you remain doing the same job for a long time, it begins to turn boring and not enough effort will be put into the work that you're meant to do. Not directed at you Terro, this is true for most things. Why not switch it up with me in Master of earth, a more active master with pretty decent PVP skills? :P
Why earth?
What do each of you feel that you can bring or do for :earth that is not being done now?Design and make cards for Earth that will probably fulfill the fact that Earth does not have a killing CC card or a Mass CC card. Apart from that, I think Earth as an element in-game is pretty perfect, maybe a bit more cards from earth that should use quanta from other elements to activate an effect? So far theres only 2, Graboid and Pulvy.
Simple questions, feel free to write as much or as little as you want. I'll read everything before I decide.Earth in-game is a strong element that is tough and hard to kill, not too much HP though (like gravity). It is a pretty good rush element and can be used with multiple elements such as fire and gravity. Although Earth does need something to kill with (CC). While Earth is good in Duos, Trios Quartets and Rainbows, it's also a strong Mono, offering the only card in the game that can protect artifacts permanently (Cloak is temporary and can be destroyed). On Forums and chat, it's the element I need to grow stronger :D
What does Earth symbolise for you?
What will you do for this element as a Master? What is your vision?
Q: If you can, express your playing style in a poem (length doesn't matter) when it comes to using Earth cards in decks.I like to lay down my stone towers,
What types of cards does Earth need in game to finish covering the Element Earth?Definitely a source of killing Creature control, the only source of creature control is just Basilisk's Blood, although it stalls for 6 turns, opponents can just rewind the creature and the effect is gone.
It is one thing to know thyself. It is another to know thy enemy.What is Air?
Why do you like the :earth element?Because of it's versatility.
What is your favorite :earth card?Stone Skin
What is your favorite synergy with :earth?Earth/Entropy Stall. Or Earth/Darkness with devs.
Many people see Earth for its feared Graboid, and think almost every other card sucks. How would you prove them wrong?I don't think a lot of people think the other earth cards suck, I think it's just that the graboid is popular in rush-nova-bows because of their low cost. That's true for the upped cards but unupped I definitely think graboid is dominating the other earth creatures in speed currently. So I agree with the people that think unupped graboid dominates the other graboids in terms of it's speed. However, in upped Earth cards, the cost/turn ratio is about even. The graboid is often used in Speedbows because of it's low cost and speedbows get time quanta from Snovas.
I already voted, but I'd like to ask some things for my own personal curiosity:I like the Earth element because it's perfect for rushing, it's got 3 main creatures that do great for rushing, antlions, graboids and steel golems thats for upped and for unupped sad to say that only the graboid has the same potential to tear the the opponents HP as quick as it does in an upped vs. upped scenarios if unupped vs unupped decks. The only card to protect your dear permanents is in Earth, as well as the shield which blocks 3 damage all by itself, effectively slowing down fractal decks by a lot.

1. Which of these qualities should a Master have and why?(Pls choose one from the list.)
Honesty,Compassion,Passion, Diligence,Integrity,Patience,Respectful,Attitude or Others.(if any)
2. Which of these qualities should a Master NOT have and why?(Pls choose one from the list.)
Boastfulness,Proud,Laziness,Disrespectful towards others,Dishonesty,Ill-Tempered, or Others.(if any)
Why earth?It's one of the best elements for stalling, rushing, quanta denial, total field control, centering on for Rainbows, and building specific counters to other decks.
What does Earth symbolize for you?
What will you do for this element as a Master? What is your vision?
What does the Element Earth symbolize? (Be precise, concise and complete)Earth symbolizes stability, strength, resilence, and being really, really hard to stop.
What types of cards does Earth need in game to finish covering the Element Earth?
Many people see Earth for its feared Graboid, and think almost every other card sucks. How would you prove them wrong?I'd show them some of Earth's other really, really good cards like Steel Golem, Antlion, BB, and EQ. In the unupped format, though, all I could really say is "Look over there at Phase Shield/Immolation/Nova."
What do each of you feel that you can bring or do for :earth that is not being done now? This goes for TerroKing as well. You have been around for a long time now, do you ever feel like :earth has grown stale for you?More cards and mechanics, really. Tridents too, could use a nice buff. For the second question: No, not really. I feel it's been too long between new cards (Hopefully Zanz will fix this in 1.27 :) ) it's always been really good. The only thing that gets stale is answering these same questions over and over -.-
Q: If you can, express your playing style in a poem (length doesn't matter) when it comes to using Earth cards in decks.You stall or you rush
Why do you like the :earth element?Because it's a sort of jack-of-all trades, like Darkness or Water, but does it better than both of them, and can specialize very well.

Hey guys!. I got a deckbuliding question for u guys too.(Have Fun!)
What kind of deck(s) would You use to counter the decks below.Code: [Select]4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vc 4vg 4vg 4vg 4vg 4vg 4vg 4vi 4vi 4vj 4vj 4vj 4vj 4vj 4vj 4vk 4vk 4vl 4vl 4vn 4vn 4vp 4vp 55v 55v 55v 55v 55v 55v
Code: [Select]55q 55q 55q 55q 55q 55q 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rg 5rj 5rk 5rk 5rk 5ro 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rp 5rt 5rt 5rt 5rt 5rt 5rt
52o 52o 52o 52o 52o 52o 52q 52q 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58s 58s 594 594 594 594 594 594 595 595 595 595
It's been said, but... Well, it's the best counter, as well as being very strong against many other decks. If I need to make another, I could.58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 590 590 590 590 590 590 591 591 591 591 5rk 5rk 5rk 5rk
Pretty good counter, they can RT the first few Shriekers but after that it's pretty easy to beat them down. (The Poison deck also works)If you know why I'm saying this, you get a cookie.Yay, I get a cookie :P
What is the best :aether/:earth deck you can come up with?Best is pretty relative.
What are you diplomatic plans towards the other elements?
Please deal with each element individually.
Actually, I was curious to see what your interpretation of best was.
Ah well.
One that would hold up best against the most annoying mono deck of each element.
Yes, I know annoying is also relative, but for that, I would like you to go based on personal feeling.

This deck is really not focused, and that is because I had to be prepared for so many things.Very very impressive sir. Unless somebody manages to cure death during the remainder of this trial, you have my vote, and my support.Thank you. :)
To be honest, neither do I.WoE is the first thing that came to mind when I read that question :P
I do like to imagine, in a WoE-esque way, that the elements are different nations, and likely have some at the very least basic relations going on.
Am I wrong?
Why should i vote for you specifically, i dotn want thing's like im the best for this or that reason i wanna know why ur personality clicks for me to vote for u?Son, eh? So you and higs were having that affair :P ;)
Now for a deck building challenge:
As operator of weird unused element duo's id like to see from each of you a different unused combo: points for originality, deck building skills, and finally effectiveness.
$$$man for you my son i have picked :air

At first the damsels were pendulums, but I wanted to add something unique. Unless somebody manages to cure death during the remainder of this trial, you have my vote, and my support.Sorry for double post :/
I think by "Cure death" he meant to something so completely and utterly amazing that it completely stomps into the dust any other attempts to do just as well. I could be wrong.Unless somebody manages to cure death during the remainder of this trial, you have my vote, and my support.Sorry for double post :/
I think I just found a way, but it reduces the decks overall effectiveness. (Not against the mono decks but against decks in general) and that way is -2 EQ -1 Shrieker +3 Stone skin. An extra 215 HP makes poison a thing of the past. Will edit the old post.
Why should i vote for you specifically, i dotn want thing's like im the best for this or that reason i wanna know why ur personality clicks for me to vote for u?Part 1: I'm Terroking. You know me, I know you. There's not much else to say here.

Terro as reigning master pick any element u wish as long as it's not :fire or :darkness

What is the best :aether / :earth deck you can come up with?Well, as for best, that'd go to the deck $$$ posted. After that the only viable option is to stick a ton of Pillars into a deck, Fractal, and then some creatures. So I present:
What are your diplomatic plans towards the other elements?
Please deal with each element individually.
58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58o 58q 58q 58q 58q 58q 58q 594 594 594 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 61o 622 622 622 622
It can be a deadly rush when you get a quick draw, and the SS can provide some hefty defense or help you live long enough to draw your Golem/Fractal after a bad draw. It will generally get outrushed by hard-core rushes, but it's exceptionaly well at taking out stall decks, because Golems take a lot of effort to kill, and they don't stop coming :)Why should i vote for you specifically, i dotn want thing's like im the best for this or that reason i wanna know why ur personality clicks for me to vote for u?

Hello!. I got a couple of questions for u guys.1. All of them, you've practically listed the things a master needs to become successful, a good sense of humor is also nice. A master also needs to be active enough to follow up with the community, at least participating in war.
1. Which of these qualities should a Master have and why?(Pls choose one from the list.)
Honesty,Compassion,Passion, Diligence,Integrity,Patience,Respectful,Attitude or Others.(if any)
2. Which of these qualities should a Master NOT have and why?(Pls choose one from the list.)
Boastfulness,Proud,Laziness,Disrespectful towards others,Dishonesty,Ill-Tempered, or Others.(if any)

It's really, really fast but perhaps 1-3 more aether pillars.What is the best :aether / :earth deck you can come up with?$$$man, Terroking and lava golem already made pretty good ones.

PC and CC gives this deck a good field control, shriekers deal the main damage.Why should i vote for you specifically, i dotn want thing's like im the best for this or that reason i wanna know why ur personality clicks for me to vote for u?As Legit already mentioned before, it doesn't much matter whom you vote on in the Earth trials. I cas see all four of us doing a great job as a master. Though the only problem would be the ~mathematical elimination of Legit. He'd need 95% of the votes to get as much points as I have, which is IMO quite impossible (Terro will most likely get most). Other than that, Legit would as well be a good choice.
Now for a deck building challenge:Death + Earth? That reminds me of the often used Poison stall.
As operator of weird unused element duo's id like to see from each of you a different unused combo: points for originality, deck building skills, and finally effectiveness.
Kakerlake for you the proud element of :death

Basically a "mono" :death with Quanta Control.Very very impressive sir. Unless somebody manages to cure death during the remainder of this trial, you have my vote, and my support.Reminds me of http://z0r.de/157
Oh man, look at those cavemen go.Anywhere, It doesn't matter because as long as they are on earth, they are awesome.
Where on earth are they going?
Earth hasn't received a card in a while. What would it need?Well sanctuary would be nice, but I think some sort of killing CC would be the best for it right now. (Maybe Mass?) Imagine a Bonewall + [New mass CC] + Stoneskin. God that deck would be ridiculous and could splash some EQ's or Poisons for more power. Add SoG's in an upped environment and your looking at the next pandebonium.
(Both questions are serious.)

Hey desert knight. I REALLY want to apologize (to you and others who will ask question after this post).Sorry to hear that... You must have the worst luck ever when it comes to Trials and RL conflicts :/
But I will be gone for three days, (I get back 2 hours before the deadline FML.) And won't be able to answer your question(s) :(.
Once again, I really apologize.... Stupid Real life :/
Question 1: I want to first point out this impeccable record. You are one of the few who have been :earth's master since War #1.Well, there have only been 2 so far, but I feel they went pretty much the same for me, some differences would be the increase of players on the team, trying to buy players strategically, and attempting to adapt to the new powerhouse elements that emerge. Overall I wouldn't say it got easier or harder, but more of a challenge ;)
Over that period of time, do you feel war has gotten easier for you? or harder? (and why)
Question 2: A few players come up to you in the chat room. They are "new players" (say around a few weeks old). They know about the forums, and a few concepts and ideas but they peak their interest when they hear the conversation turn to war, and trials.I would tell them about the various PvP Events and tournaments that frequently go on in the community, and give any links I am asked for/I think would be helpful. I'd also add my own thing which is to say that the best way to become a good player is by learning the decks, learning the cards, and being active.
They are eager to join and eager to learn.
Knowing fully through your experience and wisdom these players have no "realistic" way of joining war in their present condition.
Explain a reasonable way that you would pursue and/or advise these players in order to give them a better chance in joining the next war.
Question 3: Consider this scenario: You are stripped of your title of master of :earth.Without joining the War? Simple.
Regardless of the emotional feelings, your morale, or how and who.
Give out a reasonable pathway to reclaim this title, for the next trial, WITHOUT joining the next war following this trial session.
Oh man, look at those cavemen go.Hopefully, to the bottom of the heap right under me and ready to charge into the next War.
Where on earth are they going?
Also, another question:
Earth hasn't received a card in a while. What would it need?
(Both questions are serious.)
Hi DesertKnight,
Questions for the candidates of the Trial of :earth
(DesertKnight tracking notes: Form B)Good day friends, I'm very honored to post these questions directly to each individual candidate, I hope these questions are inspiring and illuminating.
If you find you need clarification or an example of certain things; let me know and I'll edit the question to make it more clear.
Generally I'd say it is impossible to go too far, as long as you stay desent and are not attacking anyone personally, or stepping too deep in someones private live.
Question 1: Humor and wit is always a welcome trait of any player regardless of being a master or a guest. Take for example George Carlin who has been both praised and criticized for his humor and wit.
Please explain your personal views when comedy, humor, and/or wit goes too far.
The strategy would most likely be the same as it is now: none at all! Just be myself, complete the tasks, answer questions and keep the spirits up!
Question 2: Consider this scenario. You didn't make it in this trails and you didn't make it in the next war.
Give me your strategy, and plan to reach for the role of master in the next trials.
My advice would depend on the question recieved.
Question 3: Consider the same scenario as before. (both trials and war).
Look at the list of names of contestants in this trial, pretend one of these combatants becomes the next master of :earth.
However, this master of :earth would like your personal advice for the war.
Create speech or sample chat of brief advice for a single/or all of the possible masters.
Oh man, look at those cavemen go.Maybe to a volcano to invent a fried egg? Or inventing singing by throwing a rock on someones foot?
Where on earth are they going?
Also, another question:
Earth hasn't received a card in a while. What would it need?
(Both questions are serious.)
Hey desert knight. I REALLY want to apologize (to you and others who will ask question after this post).I'm sory to hear that.
But I will be gone for three days, (I get back 2 hours before the deadline FML.) And won't be able to answer your question(s) :(.
Once again, I really apologize.... Stupid Real life :/
To readers: Don't vote for me if you're going to disclude $$$ from your candidates because of this. It's just not fair.
Thanks for the clarification.
For clarity let's narrow down the situation and ask a general question.
In this scenario the "next master of :earth" comes before you asking for advice on either one of these three topics: (pick one out of the three).
One relates to advice on "who (and why) you would recommend to bid on?"
Another relates to "your impression of previous wars. (advice on past mistakes)"
Another relates to "player management. (or lack there of)"
Ignore the fact that they may be "more qualified" or "more experienced" in any of these fields. They would like your opinion and your own advice on the matter.
Feel free to be creative, and respond to one of the three requests given.
Hey [insert future master of earth, if(master == Legit){add lots of "legit" in the post}],
Thanks for asking my advice, it's an honor to be able to help you out.
First off, I'd like to mention a past lack of logic some masters had during the previous bidding:
As you know, the higher a master bids on players, the more will his starting vault be reduced. So if you know e.g. the master of entropy really wants the player "10 men" (who had then ~400 score, which speaks for a lot of experiance and dedication), raise the bets there!
If you accidentally buy him for 20 cards, then there is no damage done. Having an experianced player is always great. And if entropy will bid higher, you have reduced their starting vault by ~15 cards. Giving such a strong player away for 6 cards is like giving entropy a nice advantage for free.
This might seem like an unfair move, bidding on players you don't want to buy but IMO it doesn't break any moralic rules to use this kind of tactics to reduce your opponents vault before the first battle, it's rather unlogic to NOT do it!
As to who you actually should bid on, I'd suggest to take a look at the previous performances of the players.
Anyone who participated in the previous wars, did a great job in PvP and in his war role, is a good choice. Having lots of forum awards show a lot of dedication to the game so they are also a good choice. The score isn't that important, but players with 100k+ can be considered plentily experianced.
Last but not least, players that did a great job in the trials should rather be considered your first choice. So if you see a player named Kakerlake, instantly bid 24 cards on him :P !
If you are not sure weather a player is good enough, shows enough dedication or is able to handle his role in the war, you may always ask him questions to see if he is able to handle his job.
Ask him to create a google spreadsheet, containing some stuff like the salvaging from war1, darkness in round 2. Or any other task related to the role he might get.
If he can't do it, needs too long or does it wrongly, you know whom not to bid on.
I hope that helped, if you need any moar advice, you know how to reach me ;)
Cheerz
Kakerlake
p.s. don't forget to place a 24 cards bidding on Kakerlake^^
