I'm with you jarhead, we used to have duels involving dim but strong ST11 DX12 IQ9 wizards that would throw massive 5d or 6d Fists. A lot of drama because 6d-12 can be spectacularly good or bad. No sure thing to say the least.

The challenge as I see it is to allow the occasional big Fists while preventing abuse of the other spells.

So what about a spell that bumps Fist? Something like Overpowered Fist, IQ 9 or 10 (prerequisite Magic Fist). This spell would allow a Magic Fist with much higher or no limit on max ST.

With such a spell, a 10/12/10 wizard could just about manage to knock someone down if things were desperate.
