I also had a Rod of Absorption, so I would've held onto my reaction to absorb your Power Words. Blast spells would've been really slow since we both have resistance to elemental damage
an entirely different thing I could have done to win, is to absorb the 8th level counterspell, pray to the dice gods that it doesn't one-shot me from exploding, and action surge power word kill
that's a new idea of mine. just dominate person, and smash the staff with some high level spells from range. (hopefully that would activate it, and not just disarm me of a powerful weapon)
Just force them to waste all their spell slots on upcasted low level spells and then they're easy pickings. Or if they're martial, force them to give you all their weapons and equipment
would have been wiser to just cast globe at 9th level, and let power word stun (which would have won me the game) do the rest

Had I not started with that 8th level counterspell, I also had a Power Word Stun as a soft win condition
well at least I got that out of it.

but yeah, gg, very close game

I am curious if that would have worked, or I would have died. I'm going to roll the damage as a what-if.
oh wait, it would just be 8x50. I would have definitely died, and you too, maybe.

no, you were too far away. I'd just have nuked myself.

I suppose that's one way to go out with a bang
I mean, I could have just nuked us both when you went into melee range, and gambled on the 50% chance to escape.

True, I would've been taking a minimum 200 damage, which would've made me gonzos

Well, if you get a successful casting of Dominate Person off, you've pretty much won the match already
yeah, but it resaves each time you damage them, so you want to dish out as much damage as you can before they escape

telekinesis wasn't the wisest choice on my part, considering that I couldn't drop you from a height (wings). wishing I had cast guiding bolt instead

that's a pretty nasty thing to do with it too.

There are many possibilities when another person's actions are only what you dictate...
yeah. I wonder how the fight would have gone if I'd subtle cast, instead of heightened cast, horrid wilting. (and then again on pwk)
