8th Trials - Phase 3 Community Vote [Earth]

[CCCombobreaker]

Phase 3 - Community Vote

It's time to vote for your favorite Master candidate!  Every community member has one vote. You can change your vote at any time as long as there is still time on the clock.

Vote based on who you think would make the best Master of that element. Do not vote based on who is the best player or who you know personally. Try to pick someone who you think would help the community the most as THE representative for their element.  If you do not have any preference for who should be Master, or cannot decide between the candidates, please select the "None Worthy" option. 

To help you make the best decision possible, feel free to ask the candidates questions.  Both challengers and defending Masters ought to answer the questions in this thread to help the voters make the best possible choice.  Please put all your answers in a single post (employing spoiler tags is recommended).  Also, challengers should include in that post a link to your Phase 1 submission post.


Questions and answers may begin now that this topic is posted.
Voting will begin when the polls are up at the official start of Phase 3.
Phase 3 ends when poll expires.

Dear candycrushates,

In your opinion, what superhero has done the best job of saving Earth?

I'm no comic buff, but I'd have to say none, since each finds themselves constantly attempting to save the planet or whatever portion of their world they are aiming to protect. There is no finality in their quests for peace with the endless promise of more issues.

Where, in your opinion, is the best place to be on earth.

As a master, its very important to be able to motivate your subordinates.

So, motivate me to vote for you by drawing a funny picture of me

The Emprah of Mankind

To both trialists.

What makes  different from other elements?

I think its versatility, earth can be adjusted to most meta (with fun decks), in fact most meta is based on curbing earth (1000 million earthquake bans in history).

On top of a mountain (I love hiking)

Earthquake is one of the more common cards to be banned in tourneys and other events.  Do you think it is OP in general, or do you think that this is a result of the limited meta in such events?

[Laxadarap]

Realistically, do you think you can topple aether? Whats so new/not new this time (more important part)?

[ARTHANASIOS]

To both candidates:
 What is your opinion about Antlion (I would like an analysis at both upped and unupped versions of this card)? OP/UP and why? Should it be buffed/nerffed/berfed? Can you make an original shardless deck which makes original and effective usage of 6 (yes, six) copies of this card? 8)
