I joined on Kongregate and started with Time. I suggested it to others as the easiest element to start with, then when I found the wiki I kept resetting my account to afford new decks.

Eventually on a different account I settled with darkness. I had an AI3 Grinder of 40 Cards.

I was getting bored, with my deck being slow and my money not going anywhere so I decided to leave for a few months.

Then I came back, restarted my account on the Life element which had become my favourite element over the months I was off elements and copied an un-upped life rush. Then from there I started working towards a USEM (still doing that now) to grind AI3 like mad.

I started Elements just a while ago, so you could say I'm a newbie still. My starter element + fave element is  :water . I guess I've always had a certain appeal for water (in real life), since as long as I could remember. Water...or extensively ocean is really fascinating; it can be calm, soothing and beautiful one second or it could be magnificently wild, furious and destructive the next. Add in the fact that water is a needed factor in survival and it's beyond awesome in my opinion.

On Elements, so far with what I've used and heard about, it really isn't the best mono deck. However, it works well with other elements. Fire/water is my fave. Opposites "attract", anyone? :P As I said, I think water goes together nicely with lots of different elements which makes it easy to put together lots of different decks. And water has both CC + damage. I love that.

So in conclusion, water will always be my favorite element.  :water

I was simply searching for a game on the Elements when I found this. I started with  :air, seeing the Wyrm's double damage. But then I noticed the Crimson Dragon's huge power and Parallel Universe's cloning ability. I now have a deck I call "Parallel Dragon", containing Crimson Dragons, Parallel Universes, Mark Of Aether, Aether Pillars and Burning Pillars. I hope I can join team  :fire in the next war.

Well I found this game because kongregate was always my favourite game website and since I learn games quickly I decided to play some multiplayer games and after roaming staying on one roaming again after a while I found this and since I was playing around since I was watching these shows with elements me and my friend where just doing random stuff and I made up stuff for the gravity element since I'm into space and space involves planets which involve gravity.

So basically because of that I went straight to gravity even though I didnt know the game I learnt very quickly and I eventually found chat and looked for help and they recommended scaredgirls deck so that got me on the forums and know I kinda like rainbow since it can be anything.

*gasp in horror*

But since you like black, and you mentioned that you see better in the dark, there must be something in Darkness that appeals to you. Also, you're doing a terrific job at being the Master of Darkness, but you can do so without feeling as one with your element?

Ugh, who am I kidding. I can easily turn myself into a Light fanatic if I wanted to. Just check my deviantART account... Maybe I just like roleplaying or something.
To be or not to be, I can do both at once. Go learn quantum mechanics, n00b.

One day I found out Elements on Kongregate.

I picked aether because it looked something "different". After an hour, I was on the fullscreen game, already.
I farmed AI3 with a very strange life-aether deck, Parallel Universed Phase Dragons, with Druidic Staff and Heals.
Days passed, and I was very angry when Phase Dragon was made immaterial, and then its cost raised. At that point, I decided to switch my Aether-Life to Water-Life. (Forest spirits, anyone?)

Days passed, and 1.14 came. And Sundial, too. I seen on the wiki the SG's god-farming deck, the one that used to kill everything by breathing. I was a very grindy person, and one night I couldn't sleep and I always thought of Sundial, Sundial, Sundial! A nightmare for me continuing that way, so I made a thing I'll regret for a long-time, I reset my account. I picked water as starting element.business opportunity (http://www.starscapes.com)Mississauga Real Estate (http://www.realestateforsalemississauga.ca)Then, I came back after I found out sundial was nerfed (and I also found out the trainer).  At that moment, I started wasting my life hanging on forums. On first war, I tried to get into team :water or team :air. Then, came the trials. I decided to get a shot at my "redemption" element. That way, I got into Team PVP #1 with Nilsieboy, and then all those nice things about success and blah blah blah.

:waterbig


My favorite elements on this game well, is everyone of them. It depends on how you use them. What you are tending to go against. You will go against people with all sorts of elements.  :aether you would use in a situation of emmortals.  :air you would use in probems of shields where your ground units can' t attack.  :darkness is useful to people too people who want to have cards they will be useful.  :death is for people who want to summon monsters easily that don't cost much. :earth is for those who live to ground attack the impossible.  :entropy is just really cool too look and see when you win.

After discovering Elements, I started with a basic Light deck.  I noticed the Pegasi worked well with Blessing, so I created a crude Wyrm/Pegasi deck that barely broke even.  The lack of success with Light and Air made me look for a stronger choice.

I found Death, but gladly it hasn't found me yet.  I thought that Death would be host to a ton of cards with powerful creature death effects.  I was initially underwhelmed; Boneyard and Bonewall were cool, but I didn't find anything incredible immediately.  What I did do was create an Otyugh/Death/Life deck that relied on Otyughs to feed Vultures, create Skeletons for the Bonds, and build my shield wall.  The deck was able to even beat a False God on occasion; I had created a supremely flexible deck that could adapt to many situations.  I found my power, or so I thought.  I became the Master of Death.

Ironically, my concept of the true power of Death occurred when MrBlonde dethroned me, as well as the resulting War afterwords.  The sheer power and flexibility of Poison as well as the strength of Bonewall convinced me I had made the right choice.  Buffing Flesh Recluses twice was the final hook.  Arsenic and its slow but certain deck became my fuel.  Recluses became my weapon of choice, and when the Deathstalker came out I rejoiced.  I finally realized the true power of Death in a Dark/Death combo deck that slaughters most opponents, and can go toe to toe against liferushes and win.  I hit the pinnacle, and it will take far more than that to make me consider otherwise.

My favorite element total is water/aether, but in this game, aether beats all. I started this game, finding it on Kong, and wanted to choose one my brother didn't choose >.> So, I chose Aether. Once I had gotten used to it, it became one of my favorite elements (I would like water if it weren't so weak >.>) . Funny thing is, water is pisces and that is my sign. I am also on the edge of aquarius, which I can't remember what it was. All in all, I'll either participate in a war next, joining aether, water, or light.


MASSIVE DECISION I JUST MADE: I have decided to change to water. That's right, water. It TOTALLY needs to be dignified, so be prepared... to die! Though, I'm probably gonna duo with aether :)

I don't, and never will have a favorite.

Why? Because each element has something unique about them that can be admired. You can simply smash through and build random decks around each one, but they're all different in some way, and that's what I like the most.  :D

When I played Elements the Game for the first time, I chose  :water element.

Why?
Because in every Trading Card Game I was playing, I always chose :water deck for the first time, such as when I played Yu-Gi-Oh! Ultimate World Championship 2006 I chose Deep Savers deck and when I played Pokemon Trading Card Game I also chose Squirtle and friends deck etc. For me it's kinda refreshing seeing the blue splash of water like in Water Pillar card. Even though finally I realized that in this game :water is the weakest element. It's only speciality (without any synchronication with other elements) is just freezing, and that just last for 3 turns. I've ever thought to reset my account and use any element which seems unbeatable like :aether, :fire:entropy or :death. But I ended up staying to use :water because my pride wouldn't allow me to use other elements. So, for me, :water rules!  8)
My idealized elements cycle:
Water -> Fire -> Air -> Earth -> Lightning -> Metal -> Light -> Darkness -> Wood -> Water
