Elements Ranked from Best to Worst
This is my opinion on what I feel are the all of the elements from BEST to WORST:
1st Place: Wind - I feel that wind is the best element because it helps you pop extra bubbles without wasting a turn moving a unit, it pairs the best elemental helpers, and it has the largest AOE where if you stack enough wind elements, your units will genuinely not have to move. It is also the best at stacking elements compared to every other element.
2nd Place: Death - Death comes in second because it is one of the few elements where a unit technically does not have to move to kill a enemy across the board. It excels at stationary damage and once you start stacking +1 ghost, then it becomes an absolute monster along with insane damage when it stacks enough. The only reason its not 1st is because its a bit slower then Wind.
3rd Place: Grass - Grass has great damage potential while also having a good way to damage neighboring lanes. The plants on the grounds can also carry over to next wave which is great if you have units out of place at the start of the next wave.
4th Place: Lightning - Lightning is solid as it pairs exceptionally well with water and can chain damage to save turns from having to be wasted to pop extra bubbles/kill remaining enemies. The +1 chain is nice when you get enough but it pails in comparison in terms of damage no matter how stacked you can get.
5th Place: Fire - On paper, fire has the highest potential for MAX damage. However, it very slow as it takes a turn to kick in which can be the difference between completing a wave or a wave being wasted since you couldn’t kill all of the units. I will say, as a stand-alone element, its not very good, but once you get either Wind or Grass as a primary and get fire as a secondary element… you basically win the run.
TL:DR - Wind is the most versatile and has best AOE, Death is excellent if you have a limited unit count, Grass is great when you have enough stacked up and need damage to carry over, Lightning is solid if the its the only choice and you already have a ton of water, Fire should never be a first choice. Only as a finisher.
