well if you picked a side and worked up. I'm Assuming you have a normal terraria world that is split down the middle by a 3 block wide hole, I personally would pick Corruption, Even though i Hate the Corruption, It is the only way to get armor good enough to get anything higher than gold armor. you need to beat the EoW in order to get a pickaxe able to mine hellstone. So i like the Hallow better but the Corruption is necessary to succeed.
