Finished solos just in time; also got rank 1 NA Harry just barely. Duos weren't bad at all this time (with the aid of the dork). Overall this season was a little better than the last few with a bit more variety in the meta, Suitcase/HH/TS are still easily the strongest and easiest things to use but they aren't *quite* as dominant anymore.

Also someone I've seen a few times saw I was close to reaching MA and gave me a free win because they were already there... they really didn't have to but it was nice; I added them after to say thank you.

Ooh... generally quite liking the direction of these actually. Incendio was already pretty decent so a small damage buff is nice; just makes it a little more consistent at killing things instead of leaving them at low HP.

Glacius Maxima could be legitimately really good with an almost guaranteed three extra beams against summoners, and same for Acromantula Venom... both of those felt pretty underwhelming most of the time so I am quite happy with that change. Might also allow things that are not Ivy or Whizbang to actually deal with Hagrid Fiendfyre which is otherwise pretty unbeatable. Portkey change I don't really understand; I guess I don't hate it but it's weird.

Voldemort buff is nice and probably needed. McGonagall didn't need the buff though; she's already very annoying in solos because her win condition is literally landing one Inflatus. Maybe she was too weak in duos?

But umbrellas don't help against lightning; in fact they kinda do the opposite of help...

If you land every single spell as Harry with maxed cards you can slightly out-DPS their single button afk spamming. Whizbang McGonagall or Hermione might work too since they do even more DPS, and can also run any of Protego Totalum/Nebulus/Invisibility Cloak. All of those are complicated by the existence of Hagrid companion though because they can randomly move around dodge everything while all their damage autohits you.
