Archmage’s Retort:The Final Word
Effort: --
Requires: Forbidden
When an opponent in a spell war tries and fails to beat your Counterspell score, they cannot cast Counterspell anymore in that spell war.
They are ejected from the spell war.
Normally, an opponent in a spell war can keep casting Counterspell until they run out of magic. But against you, they only get to fail once.
(Rerolls can still turn a failure into a success)

Spellbind
Effort: 30
Requires: Archmage’s Retort: The First Word
When you successfully counter a spell other than Counterspell, its caster is spellbound until the end of its next turn.
You may make one free attempt to counter each spell that a creature that is spellbound by you casts, with a -10 penalty.
However, these free counters cannot trigger spellbind themselves, and spells countered in this way refund any resources spent to cast them.
