Except Valiant wasn't there for the shockwaves to hit him. He ran and leapt up the side of the school, hanging from a window. No combatant in their right mind  would just stand there while he fell to execute an attack. The moment Thorald began to descend, he'd strafed, preparing spikes of ice around the battlefield only for them to mostly be shattered when his oppenent striked.

So much for the ice spike plan. He huffed and decided to go for some brute force. He jumped from the window, flipping down onto the newly upheaved ground. The groundskeepers were going to have their heads, that was for sure.

With a wave of his hand, he sent a barrage of fireballs in Thoralds direction for a distraction before dropping down low and erecting a shield of icy spikes. Chief Engineer Lynwood was the one who had taught him how versatile ice spikes were. Your enemy tended to avoid them, and thus you could lure them into a favorable position. They could be falling and by erecting ice spikes beneath them, they would fall to their certain doom. You could make ice spikes drop from the sky with a similar effect. Of course, his personal favorite was erecting a spikey wall of ice around and above him so his enemy couldn't get to him without breaking through it or flanking him. It was also a great way to force the enemy into close combat.

He crouched down and prepared an electrical attack, cradling it in his hand as he waited for his opponent's move.
