Yeah, that's a good point...

... but so is this. One ST 9 DX 15 small bow opponent, for example, could end the streak. And since Hcobb thinks exploiting Missile Weapons talent in Death Test is cool, if it were fair, even a mere 32-point opponent could be ST 11 DX 12(15 bow) IQ 9 longbow, which is quite likely to be able to make a ST 6 unarmored wizard not have 3 ST to cast Word of Command.

But I think the main rational comment is that 40-point IQ 20 wizards with Word of Command don't really make sense as Death Test applicants.
