My test was four sets with four Theurgs and eight Communicants on each side. The Theugs using Communion Master lost 8 of 16. The others lost 12 of 16. Oddly, the attacking teams lost 15 of 16, making me wonder if Magic Duel does still (v1.15) favor the caster? When hitting more then one target does it use the strongest target's magic?
I recall one of the devs (JK?) saying the attacker still got a bonus, like winning ties or something.

Also, I hadn't realized it was an area spell?! I'm not even really sure what that would mean...
Can a single instance of Magic Duel kick off three Duels?!
