Cycle 10

The tenth cycle of Earth, Water, Fire & Air was posted with opened auditions on February 7, 2017 and the finale posted on August 18, 2018. The cycle featured 16 contestants (8 guys & 8 girls) placed on 4 elemental teams of 4.
The prizes for this cycle included:
* $1,000,000.
* A shitload of work because EWFA's huge in this universe.
The international destination was Athens, Greece.
Like former cycles like 5, 6, 8 & 9, Cycle 10 was divided by gendered into two separate guy and girl competitions. However unlike those four previous cycles, both of these competitions competed alongside each other with a (planned) male & female winner for the same cycle.
This cycle also was first to have models directly coached by a past contestant of their element for the duration of the competiton.
The female side of this cycle was won by 17-year-old teenage mother of twelve, Cong Mae Le from Dulac, Louisiana. The male side of this cycle was the second cycle to have a double crowning of two models with 21-year-old Cynddelw Anthony from Llan Ffestiniog, Wales & 19-year-old Laurentine Lefebvre from Paris, France. 
These three winners dominated their competitiors like none before them. Cong Mae would become the Greatest Female Performer of All Time, winning 6 Best Photos (a new record) & scoring the Best Shot of All Time with her Cursed Images with a score of 10.15. 
Cynddelw & Laurentine would become the first two models in EWFA history to have a such stellar performances that they were only sent to the finale themselves as a final two. They ended on a call out average of 2.00, making them the Greatest of All Time performers (a title shared with Joaquin Esquobar).

=== Shadow Twist ===
When each contestant was eliminated from the season, they were each presented with the opportunity of being coached by another past contestant behind the scenes. If they agreed, they would compete in the same photoshoots per week against each model as they were eliminated in a battle scenario. By Week 5, the eliminated model that survived the twist would re-enter the competition as a Shadow contestant and formally denounce themselves as their initial elemental team.
Despite being eliminated in the first week of the competiton, Toft & Mia were consistent in the Shadow Twist and went on to beat six models to return to the competition. Toft would eventually place 5th & Mia would eventually place 4th.
