    Between Wall of Fire, Counterspell and Fireball, this episode was really a great reminder at how fricking terrifying a well trained wizard can be. Especially one specializing in pyromancy.

Then in his growth with the Mighty Nein he became justified in that change and grew far more powerful than he ever would have under Trent.

    In spite of this event not being the cleanest win for the Nein, this animatic shows all the best aspects. Plus the designs on each spell were fantastic. Next seeing Nott, the Brave really earning her comma was wonderful. Then again, I'm biased, seeing Nott being everything she thought she wasn't(Brave, smart, beautiful, strong) makes me so very happy knowing where that character growth will eventually lead her. Lastly, Caleb being Caleb was entirely on point.
