Spell Duel is another crazy mechanic they have to try to capture the epic wizard fights from books and movies, it has the downside of basically stopping the rest of the game while a separate combat takes place basically cause the second 1 wizard starts to cast a spell the PC or NPC wizard can initiate Spell Duel and they resolve that mini combat before any other PC gets their turn lol
"when I first saw spell duels I was like "this looks awful, this will jsut take away from the other players" then after running a lot of games I realised that when done well spell duels are something all the other players look forwards to, they get like "OH SPELL DUELLLLLLLL!" like highschool kids chanting a streetfight"
