Magic is the ultimate counter to Zeno.Lord Frieza wrote:I see thank you.Lord Frieza wrote:You said that prior examples, while good, were stuff Dragon Ball has faced before. Looking at your list, plenty of that stuff has been done before (Substitute gold for stone), is boring instant death, or just seems rather bland for a fight (He spawns a spear). Closest to interesting sounding spells on there is the balls that transforms you if you touch them. I was asking if there were any other spells that were more unique or cool.AnimeNation101 wrote:

Well one that jumps to mind is something like the Giga Slave from Slayers. It's a magic attack that tarnsends Holy or Dark magic because it draws power from the creator of the universe. Downside, it takes a heavey tole on the caster and if miscast it could destroy reality. So the DB equivilent would be summoning power beyond even Zen-Oh.
Chaos Magic is another one, for example chaos flame that do not burn but spread madness and mutation. It's the Russian roulette of magic types.
Time Acceleration. Rathern then stopping or slowing down time, the user can speed up their own personal time to increase attack speed or forcable age the target.
Offensive Dimention Teleoprtation, basically sending your targets to say a Demon Realm. A place they cannot in theory leave and is filled with beings more then happy to kill them.
Curses is actually one of the most obvouse. A premiant and supernatural affliction of bad luck, pain or illness.
De-Powering, using magic to take a persons abilities away.
Edit:
On the subject of time again. Time Loops, trapping your target in a continous loop of time either to disable them or for you to achive a victory because you know everything they are going to try.
For a specific spell there's the Balefire from the Wheel of Time. When used, it destroys the person/object it hits backwards in time. How far back depending on the strength of the balefire.
Another I thought of is Binding spells, specifically ones that bind stronger beings then you like demons or gods.
So for example Moro could caste a spell that forcable binds Beerus to do his bidding. The being is not under any mind control, but due to the spells magic they must obay.
Not all 100% original I'll grant but not used in the way I describe in Dragon Ball.
Edit 2:
I'd like to point out that being a magic user isn't all flashy explosions. While instant death and disable spells are not very thematic it's a pretty core part of what makes magic users what they are. People who can fell the mightiest warriors with a word or gesture.
You literally trap Zeno in an illusion where he’s always having fun and would never want to leave.
