Only combat pretenders are vulnerable to magic duel, really.

Seeking arrow only does 8 damage, even a human rainbow should be able to easily eat that in friendly dom.

What about, say, 5-6 seeking arrows?

Not broadcasting your position makes that somewhat difficult to land. Plus, there is the air shield item.

Rainbow pretenders are really easy to spot if you have basic scouting. And nobody ever gives them the air shield item. So blast away with the arrows. (And always use overkill, you really do not want to leave the pretender hanging with 2 hp).
