It is implied that they are coming from the ground. However it is entirely unclear as to whether or not they are rooted in the ground. While javelins and lances can be staked into the ground that is hardly their preferred use and therefore cannot be fairly surmised from @Divinity's post. A better term to use would have been spike, mounted, or rooted but then we encounter another issue wherein their stability has to outmatch Meteor's telekinetic hardening and pushing, another factor left unacknowledged.
Worse yet I imagine @DLL didn't ask because he assumed it to be a tactical flaw. Given that @Divinity didn't say otherwise in his post @DLL was free to draw conclusions that did not work in his opponents favor. Were I in @DLL's shoes I would have written Corban's obliteration at the hands of an attack he had failed to defend. Not expecting a fighter to secure victory when he thinks his opponent is exposing a flaw is foolish at best.
This is not the only issue in Divinity's post but it is a very major issue and its born of his vague incoherence in the very first paragraph. There are at least half a dozen more paragraphs after that and thus it establishes the beginning of a very bad track record for his writing, and it's one that doesn't work in his favor.
