the 1 for 3 argument is invalid.
If you really think that invalidates the one ofr three argument then you must be high or something. Eq destroys 3 pillars and only costs 3 quanta. Within the first turn the opponent is already down 3 quanta they would otherwise have. They basically lose 3 quanta every turn for the rest of the game. This is HUGE because this is quanta that is needed to be able to actually play cards so you can damage your opponent. All the while your opponent is moving at a regular speed getting his cards onto the field damaging you. While you're trying to catch up your opponent can play another eq to cripple your pillars. His TWO cards would then ahve most likely destroyed your SIX. Think of that as having four less draws than your opponent plus not being able to play te cards you have drawn. Zanz introduced Earthquake to ENCOURAGE multicolor decks not to DISCOURAGE mono color decks in my opnion. Combine Earthquake with devouers and the effects can be absolutely crippling. Even the slowest attacking deck can win if they draw an earthquake with a few devourers because it just completely locks down your opponent while you aren't able to do anything other than what you've already played. And anyone with an ounce of brains can fgure out how important card advantage can really be so unless you have a CONSTRUCTIVE counter argument to present then don't ven bother replying with your mindless babble.
