The troll king's court also only requires three earth to cast, compared to six earth for the cyclops. Six earth is hard to reach without both a ring of wizardry and a staff of elemental mastery. Three earth is reachable by anyone with earth two.
Making the unique summons less useful is part of the point. Personally, I'd make them all non-unique if I could do it so that there isn't such a race to get the very large power boost from being the first to reach their research levels. Of course, I'd also make the global spell limit moddable so that a 24 person game isn't stuck with the same total number of global spells as a 2 person game.
