Perhaps, but unless I misunderstood, the purpose of the thread is to "vote and explain why [insert element] is your favourite." While "favourite" is not synonymous with "best" from the objective point of view, it usually is from the subjective.
I guess many people like some element because they think it's the best. Eg. many people like :time, because it actually is the best :P
Which is obviously a totally 100% objective statement from an absolutely unbiased perspective...that is, until I see the title "Master of Time  :time". But surely that won't affect your impartiality in the slightest, will it? :D

I suppose the question is which element does it's thing the best.

Nothing Aethers better than Aether does, but Earth can sometimes Water better than Water does.

Or something.

In summary, vote life.

I like aether for a few reasons:
1. Immortals and Phase dragons can't be hurt.
2. Dimensional shields block all attacks for 3 turns.
3. Parallel universe allows you to copy some good cards of yours or your opponent.
4. For any card that isn't immortal, you can use Quintessence.

Don't mind me, I'm just picking a fight. I can't get hurt, remember? Immaterial.

WHOOHOO, Aether is currently leading! Thanks, jippy. You gave us the lead we need.

Can you fly beyond this plane? Beyond this dimension? Past spacetime? To the STARS?

Yeah, didn't think so.

No. For two reasons:

1) [Balancing Reason] Mint Chocolate Chip is too many words for the poll,  compared to the other selections, and is thus overpowered.
2) [Logical Reason] Mint Chocolate Chip will NEVER, EVER, hold a cup to the goddess known as Raspberry Sorbet, for she is divine and heavenly in all forms.

:P


...Also, I believe that the elements that don't have double-digits (i.e. significantly lower votes < 8) are due to one of the following reasons:

1) The Masters of said elements don't have a cool enough icon to be appreciated by the community.
2) Certain cards of said elements are overly situational to the point that it decreases deck building popularity circling around it.
3) People who love that element are being blocked by moderators on this forum to create a Elements the Game conspiracy.

I have to agree with unit748596 that :air is quite a decent element. It has one of the most cost-effective shields of all... and also since Qohelet suggested adding Flying Weapon to my Pharaoh Sails to Orion deck I'm quite satisfied with that addition, using two eternities simultaneously is definitely better than using one.
And :air master definitely has a nice avatar (FFTA ftw!)

Also :air has nice synergy with :light, and you can never have too much :light!

On the other hand :aether is also quite a powerful element... without quints my pharaohs wouldn't feel safe, my anubises would not have an opportunity to protect themselves...

Oh, it's a hard choice... I guess I'll go for Invincible Invisible Honey Cookies of Time! (a divine kind of cookies that would look like that: :time if they were not invisible.)
May the force of the D4HK side be with U ^_^

 :entropy of course (goes slightly over  :time). There is lot reasons, but mostly: entropy is like chaos, changer of ways - just think about cards like: antimatter, chaos seed, chaos power, butterfly effect, fallen druid or even maxwell. Unique/useful abilities. Pure entropy is not that good in PvP and entropy is definitely part of good rainbow deck.

About  :time: Time have really useful cards like hourglass, eternity and Anubis. Anubis is one of those cards I didn't use when I started this game - so you need exactly right deck type to use it effectively (ex. pharaoh or poison quartet).

I like  :death a lot too.

3 cards I like most: Antimatter, Eternity and Alfatoxin.
