I could have taken a turn to dash and flown away to 120 feet for only taking a single attack from melee. Bam, out of range of your counter.
Sentinel feat. No.
Then I would be in a bit more trouble, but you'd be in range of all three shards to take from one of two spells. And I'd have still used metamagic, so although evil shard wouldn't have worked, the rest would have.
I think that most metamagics are good, and subtle is a metamagic that is good.
It's an ability that makes the 'anti-magic' builds all but worthless.
In arenas like this: yes, it's incredibly powerful. But consider this: if someone casts from further than 60 feet, can I counterspell? No, that's a job for distant, and it's as common a way to evade counterspell as subtle.
Yes, but I would also have taken a +1d6 to all my saves against you.
Chilling kinda vibe.
I'll keep running away from you with my movement. So we're 175ft apart.
Chilling kinda vibe.
I'll cast quickened empowered Ice Storm, fly to 119 feet distance, and cast subtle empowered Fire Bolt (and seeking if it misses).
Roll a dexterity saving throw or take 11 bludgeoning damage and 15 cold damage.
Fire bolt: Attack: 19 Damage: 13.
Edit: looks like seeking spell time then.

Please ignore my old homebrew, and for the love of every god out there don't use it.
I (used to, it's kinda dead now) participate in the Level 20 Gladiator Arena with a nameless hero (actually I think I deleted him, whoops).
New attack roll: 23

OK then. You doing anything about the damage rolls?

Yeah, I just had to step away from the computer for a moment.

Reroll 1 on ice storm, reroll 1 on fire bolt.
And I haven't even activated the shards yet.

Fair enough. I'll just die now to save me trouble of doing it later. I will be back...

I want to roll shards though, and so I shall. Five activations of evil shard: 48 necrotic damage.

I've said it before and I'll say it again. Subtle spell is overpowered.

Depends on the scenario. I think fly speed was the real MVP here.

No, I think Subtle spell is the ability that props up the rest of the sorcerer class in 5e.

Anyway, back to the drawing board. I refuse to build a core class sorcerer to counter your sorcerer.
