Hi folks, hit me with your best wizard shenanigans. I'm playing a near-zero-damage chronugist control wizaard and just hit level 7. Starting to thing about picking up the right spells for level 10 when Arcane Abeyance kicks in.

Stinking cloud + web/evards black tentacles... the discount microwave ;) -- add Grease to make it harder to escape, and use your mage hand+telekinetic feat bonus action to keep pushing them back to the centre.

Haste + Greater Invisibility on the any party member...

Polymorph (to flying creature) + Fear -- send pretty much any enemy straight up, then drop Polymorph...

Tiny Servant would be great as a combat spell, cast on the enemy's non-magical weapon, but unfortunately the target must not be carried or attached to another, so disarming them first somehow would be the challenge.

Bestow Curse (Wisdom disadvantage) + Hold Person -- if the double bestow curse is not allowed by DM.

Speaking of overlapping effects... multiple castings of Enlarge/Reduce?

Transmute Rock (to Mud) + Slow, layer on grease...
