information for both opponents under the cut to those who don't know what they can do in their battle:

Gavin Deamonne:

Gavin Deamonne specializes mainly in abomination magic, and it is not known whether or not he knows or practices spells of another kind.

Gavin and Amity have not met in canon and have no real relation to each other whatsoever. In headcanon territory, Gavin acknowledges Amity as a rival of his generation (much like his dad has a rivalry with Amity's dad) and wants to prove himself.

Gavin is overall a pretty skilled witch from Glandus High, and his debut episode proves he's not afraid to seek adventures and is capable of fighting off beasts or capturing his opponents. He's not necessarily smart enough to see through illusions, especially when emotionally vulnerable (the boy so desperately needs his dad's attention that he falls for an illusion of himself with a mustache).

Gavin does in fact possess a palisman as confirmed in Eda's Requiem, and is proven to be a skilled and fast flyer by winning the Gland Prix. Now, it's hard to tell whether or not he and Luz were going head to head (granted, she had a huge head start before King puked at her, making Luz crash); however, he still managed to win the race by his own skill, even if Luz could potentially outpace him. It goes without saying that Gavin still has skills in being an aerial ace that can rival most of the competitors here. It's not, however, known whether or not he can use staff in combat.

Gavin may or may not have galdorstones with him to enhance his magic.

Abomination Slip - Gavin can create abominations beneath the feet of his opponents, making them lose their balance. It can be especially effective if his opponents are directly charging at him.

Abomination Gripe - Gavin is capable of making abomination goo capture his opponents, no matter where they are, and restrain them or even move them across different locations.

Abomination Minion - Gavin is capable of creating quite a large abomination golem that can be used to attack Gavin's opponents for him and serve his commands. The golem was smart enough to not be captured by the vines that assisted in the capture of Gus, and also the very one to catch Gus first.

Abomination Bomb - not a canon one to Gavin, it was used by another witch, but I thought it was a nice ability, so I gave it to Gavin for him to have more firepower. Gavin can send a bullet of abomination that can explode, releasing large amounts of goo that can restrain his opponents.

Amity Blight

Amity Blight naturally specializes in Abomination Magic the most, but she does have some capacity in knowing spells of other tracks like Plants and Illusion, but it's very limited.

Amity is a very skilled, talented, cool-headed, and pragmatic fighter. Hardly does she lose composure when battling even strong opponents, displaying plenty of agility and athleticism (as shown in her battle with Hunter and Grom, which is also given considering she was a former captain of the grudgby team at Hexside), and can be both a powerhouse using plenty of strength or a mastermind coming up with tricks on the fly while outsmarting her opponents with her skillset. Very dangerous, and even more so once she puts more passion into her battle. Hardly are there any weak spots or flaws in her battling style, but she can still be overpowered. Abomination Magic in particular, feels to be weaker than Construction Magic, for example, and it can be rendered useless when dealing in an environment with no mud. Granted, Amity holds abomination goo with her, so at most, she's going to be weakened. Amity is capable of controlling any slime or mud she comes in contact with.

Amity does wield a Palisman named Ghost, and according to herself, she's a "safe flyer". This means she's overall pretty proficient and skilled in her flying capabilities, but at the same time, it means she's not a real aerial ace like Luz or Hunter, for example. She's skilled enough not to easily fall off by herself, but as proven in her battles with Hunter (both EL and TTT), she's not fast enough to necessarily avoid being hit in midair. Granted, she can still be faster than average and have better reflexes than average, but still not enough to beat some real aerial aces. She is proficient in staff-wielding, being capable of using it to enhance her own spells.

In Canon, Amity and Gavin have not met and have no real relation to each other whatsoever. Amity is, however, Gus's friend, and while they don't interact with each other often on the screen, Amity still may not like Gus's former bully and would neither think highly of him nor spare him much. In headcanon territory: Amity is actually willing to give Gavin a second chance to improve as a person, knowing very well where he's coming from exactly, so she lets him be her sparring partner before her last battle while hoping she can reach him, but she certainly isn't going to go easy on him.

Projection Spell - Amity is capable of creating projections of images or historical events, similar to how Eda did it in the first episode, as proven in Enchanting Grom Fright when explaining Grom to Luz. The spell, however, has very little use on the battlefield and at most can be used as a brief distraction.

Voice Change - Amity is capable of briefly changing her voice to sound like whoever she wants to sound like. Her real voice, however, can still be heard through, but it could be used as a brief distraction during Battle Royale or maybe to mess up some verbal spells of other casters (like beast-keepers, though it's hard to tell if it would actually work, or Alador's Abomatons, as proven in Reaching Out). I could also picture Amity using this spell specifically to mess with Bria's head for a hot second.

Oath Spell - Amity can make oaths between her opponents as demonstrated in Covention. It all, however, depends on Amity's manipulation and bargaining skills on what she could force her opponent to oath to.

Thorn Bolt - Amity's only known successful plant spell, but a very potent one. Amity by striking a magic circle to the ground can create a giant pillar made out of thorns that can be used to knock out people all around her while getting away or be used as an offensive strike at a specific target. It is proven to be quite destructive. She demonstrated it in the flashback during WILW.

Shield Spell - Amity is shown to create a tiny shield out of energy to block attacks, as demonstrated in her training with the twins at the knee. She did this with the wand at the time, but I believe that now that Amity has grown stronger, she can do it fine by herself as of now. The shield isn't particularly big, but it can be very effective against very direct and simple attacks

Barrier Spell - Amity is capable of creating a cage made out of energy around her opponents. The cage is very resistant to physical damage and can also deal damage upon being touched, effectively immobilising its opponents. It can also last pretty long. However, the barrier has a flaw in its top being left wide open, so if the caster can use their capabilities to jump above it, the barrier becomes effectively useless.

Fireball - Amity is shown to be able to create and shoot fireballs of various sizes (from very small to medium to even large ones) at her opponents. Her fire magic can naturally melt away ice and mud/goo (as proven to be effective against SlitherBeast's goo); however, her spell could still be blocked. It is Amity's second trademark spell aside from her proficiency in Abomination Magic. She can also use this spell to just raise the temperature or create combustion to destroy objects, as demonstrated in Adventure in the Elements when Amity destroyed her drawing.

Abomination Golem - Amity naturally can create golems out of abomination goo. She'll usually limit herself to one at a time when using her own golem. Her golems can come in various sizes, from very little to medium-sized to even giant-sized. Her golems also showed to be quite obedient and intelligent for a typical abomination, being able to mimic Amity's movements and being capable of throwing projectiles, throwing themselves at the opponent, blocking attacks, tying their opponents or their attacks, and knocking them out with brute strength. They are, however, fragile as they can be easily destroyed with just enough force, but Amity can easily fix them up again. Her abominations can also be pretty quick and, due to their ability to mimic Amity, can showcase a mannerism closer to actual combatants rather than a slow, zombie-like mannerism. Amity also never lost control over her abominations.

Take Over Abomination - Amity proved to be capable of taking over abominations that weren't made by her, as demonstrated when she took control over abominations at Hexside during her debut and even managed to bring down to the knees a very improved Abomaton made by her dad. She can also use this ability to destroy abominations of other people with it, though it could be harder against more skilled abomination casters if they're also putting just enough effort into controlling their own abominations.

Abomination Bullet - as demonstrated with her own abomination minions, Amity can throw abomination goo as projectiles that can be pretty destructive, as demonstrated during Covention.

Abomination Block - Amity can use abomination goo to directly block attacks from her opponents, as demonstrated in her battle with Hunter during Eclipse Lake. She can also use it to trap attacks inside a ball made out of abomination, as demonstrated in EL. In KT, it's also demonstrated that she can shape her abomination block into an abomination hand, which is also larger and helps protect from bigger attacks, such as falling debris, for example.

Abomination Shield - Amity can create a fortified shield made out of Abomination Goo that is supposedly stronger than a typical Abomination Block, as demonstrated in Reaching Out.

Abomination Slide- as demonstrated in Reaching Out, Amity is capable of using abomination goo to ride on it for transportation. It could be used to get away from her opponents, get into a specific location for Amity to proceed with her strategy, or just charge head-on towards her opponents, as shown in WaD.

Abomination Root Attack - as demonstrated in Reaching Out, Amity can slide her abomination goo through the ground unnoticed, for it to pop up wherever she wants to create a hand that can be either used to block people's movements, or sneak attacks to throw them away, it can also take the shape of a hand.

Abomination Arms - as demonstrated in both King's Tide and Reaching Out, Amity can create arms using her abomination goo. It could be used to either block the attacks, even as strong as falling debris, hold their opponent still as Amity attempted with Belos, or she can cover her own arms with goo to form bigger arms to match the strength of stronger opponents while also being capable of extending them however she likes.

Giant Abomination Arm - Amity, as demonstrated in WILW, was capable of creating a giant arm made out of an abomination that could be used to block attacks as strong as a giant axe, for example. It can also be used for an uppercut, as demonstrated in both WILW and ASIAS when Amity killed Tibbles.

Abomination Lasso - as demonstrated during her battle with Belos, Amity is capable of creating a lasso made out of abomination goo that can be used to tie her opponents down.

Abomination Bind - as demonstrated in EL, Amity can bind her opponents with abomination goo as she did with Hunter during the entire episode. The bind is quick enough to catch her opponents, no matter what, and it would require top speed to break from them.

Abomination Bubble - Amity can create a restraining bubble around her opponents to trap them, as demonstrated in Eclipse Lake, being quick enough to trap them no matter what. However, it is not invulnerable, as Hunter broke out of it with enough force. The bubble can also be used to also use for her protection and transportation.

Abomination Blade - as demonstrated during her battle with Hunter, Amity is capable of creating a simple blade made out of abomination goo.

Abomination Gauntlet - Amity is capable of creating a fortified gauntlet made out of abomination goo. She can create only one at a time, though (not counting Abomination Arms, which aren't as fortified as the gauntlet, which has spikes). However, she can use it to enhance her own physical strength (though barely, as she didn't break Hunter's nose with it and only came "close" to breaking a barrier according to Alador). She can use her abomination gauntlet to shoot projectiles at her opponents, as demonstrated during her tag-team battle with Luz against Kikimora.

Abomination Wave - Amity is capable of creating a giant wave of abomination goo. The wave could be used to knock back her opponents, glue them to the floor as demonstrated in Clouds on the Horizon, or to the walls as demonstrated in Labirynth Runners.

Abomination Construct - Amity has demonstrated to be capable of creating precise tools and objects with her abomination goo, as seen in Follies when she created a skateboard or balloon in Reaching Out. Amity showcased that it was quite creative with it.

Abomination Multiple Hands - as demonstrated in WaD when attacking Luz, Amity is capable of creating multiple abomination giant hands to use to attack her opponents.

Abomination Tendrils - Amity is capable of creating multiple tendrils made out of abomination that can be used to hold up structures (like Luz's ice bridge in TtT) and attack her opponents during her battle with Luz in WaD.

Abomination Hand Block - An improved version of the Abomination Block, where Amity's shield takes the form of an arm and is much bigger than the typical Abomination Block.

Abomination Arm Attack - Demonstrated in KT, Amity can create a singular abomination arm that can extend and attack her opponents. Unlike the giant arm, this one is smaller but longer.

Abomination Arm Stream - demonstrated in LR, Amity can create a stream of abomination goo, forming hands and tendrils to attack her opponents head-on.
