Considered the strongest spell school by most, Earth Magic basically does it all: good [[Direct damage spells|damage spells]], good [[Adventure spell|adventure map spells]], decent [[blessing]]s, [[Resurrection]]/[[Animate Dead]], and last, but not least, [[Slow]]. If your hero is going to learn only one Magic School, Earth Magic would be it. Still, some tend to rank it a bit too highly; [[Town Portal]] is obviously an excellent spell, but it is also often [[banned]]. Resurrection is a great spell, but most of the time, it can't turn a [[Combat|battle]]. Slow is also great, but it won't help you that much if the enemy has better [[ranged unit]]s than you. That being said, Earth Magic is still powerful enough for it to be one of the "must have" [[Secondary Skills|skills]].
