RUB is a single-target KO Spell that isn't particularly accurate. Further, a lot of Monsters (including all Undead) resist Death Spells. It's a fun Spell to cast, but it's really not very good. QAKE is the same level and hits multiple targets, though many creatures resistant to Earth are not resistant to Death. Either way, you're probably better off saving a level 6 Spell slot for some other use.

Death is another KO Spell completely overshadowed by Toad. It is of a different Element, but every Monster resistant to Matter also resists Death and then some, and Death is less accurate than Toad to boot! This is another redundant Spell you shouldn't bother learning or casting if you've got Toad or Break, both of which are better.
