Dueling
Dueling is an activity available to magical Sims, introduced in The Sims: Makin' Magic. Sims will not duel autonomously. To begin a duel, the player selects a magical adult Sim, and clicks on the Diametric Dueling Device. A pie menu showing all magical Sims and Magic Town vendors on the lot will appear. When the player selects an opponent for the Sim, the Sim will stand on one platform, and the selected opponent will come to stand on the other. Each duelist will be given four of the five dueling spells, indicated by the colored orbs near that Sim's platform.

The duel consists of four rounds, and in each round, the player can either choose first, or let the opposing Sim go first and choose a response. When the selection is made, the spell's orb will flash, and a symbol will appear in front of that Sim.
Each dueling spell beats two others, and is beaten by two others. Once both Sims have selected, the winner of the round will unleash the effect of his or her spell. For each round that the selected Sim wins, he or she will receive MagiCoins, how many depends on the opponent's Logic score.
