Not sure who should win? Here’s what you need to know about each matchup.
Witch
Afflicted by a sinister curse, witches can spin dark magic into hexes, which they use to debilitate foes. They are also accompanied by their familiars, loyal magical companions that they use to deal the killing blow. Play a witch if you want to hobble your enemies and cackle while doing so.
Witch subclasses, or Witch’s Crafts, seek not to categorize spells but to capture the essence of how those spells are used. With few exceptions, these are named for “colors” of magic. There are dozens of varieties, from those practiced by covens in secret, to those plied in marketplace potion shops.
| Name | Description |
| Black | Practices the necromantic arts and wields dark spells of suffering |
| Green | Practices magic associated with plants, animals, and the natural world |
| Red | A destructive spellcaster wielding magic that ruins and burns |
| White | A natural healer and practitioner of restorative magic |
Warmage
The undisputed masters of cantrips, warmages turn the most humble spells into deadly weapons via an array of tricks. Play a warmage if you want to be a high-damage spellcaster with deep customization and few spells to learn.
Each warmage is defined by their chosen House, or subclass, which teaches them valuable skills and offers a confederation of allies they will keep for their lives. Named for games of strategy and games of chance, each house emphasizes a unique approach to spellcasting and combat.
| Name | Description |
| House of Bishops | Dabblers in true arcane magic, gaining spell slots to supplement their cantrips |
| House of Kings | Leaders and commanders with a wide array of maneuvers at their disposal |
| House of Knights | Frontline combatants, fortified with Heavy armor |
| House of Pawns | Versatile cantrip masters |
| House of Rooks | Arcane assassins and spies |
