Well, this wasn't the best example gif. The bottom one is more accurate. But this is much better, in some cases, than shockwave because:
1) It lets you alter terrain. You could build walls or other stuff with this.
2) You can push people away much farther. Instead of knockback this is being pushed away by a wall, in a way similar to Surge for waterbending.
3)It is a much faster attack than shockwave, requiring little to no charge time. You just use raise earth or find some earth that is already sticking out of the ground and push it away.
4) This allows you to make your own moves. Ex: Use earth grab to trap your enemy and then earthpush to crush them. Or use earthgrab on yourself and then push everyone away from you. Raise one pillar with raiseearth and send it towards them or send a whole wall. Trap someone in a earthwall maze, jump out and then crush them... There are tons of possibilities...
