There are several reasons to select Earth Magic, but one of the strongest motive is [[Town Portal]] spell, which is among the most powerful adventure map spells along with [[Fly]] and [[Dimension Door]]. Another excellent reason is the [[Resurrection]] spell (and [[Animate Dead]] for [[Undead]]), which permanently resurrects creatures at Advanced and Expert level (while on Basic level only for the duration of the battle). A hero with a lot of spell points, high [[power]] skill and Expert or Advanced Resurrection can win almost any battle without suffering losses (for example, by [[Blind]]ing the last enemy stack and then resurrecting all of their own troops).
Furthermore, with Expert Earth Magic, [[Shield]], [[Stone Skin]] and [[Slow]] become powerful [[mass spell]]s at Expert level. Slow as a mass spell has especially devastating effects among enemy troops, as it reduces all enemy creatures' [[speed]] by 50%, which may change the outcome of battles against overpowering opponents.
Earth magic also contains [[Meteor Shower]] which is a great multi hex damaging spell and [[Implosion]] which is the strongest single target spell in the game, capable of destroying or crippling a power stack at the beginning of the fight.
