With the great new addition of being able to choose your own opposition school, does anyone know what the 3.5 opposition schools are? Ive tried googling but it takes me to an SRD website which doesn't say.

Any assistance?

They're whatever you want them to be. In PnP there are no set opposition schools. You pick whichever opposition you want.

Yep that's right, although in PnP all specialist wizards except diviners must pick -two- prohibited schools (Diviners pick one). Red Wizards must pick a third (except RW Diviners, they pick a second). So we've actually got it much easier than PnP.

There are so-called classical oppositions in magical theory (see image below), but these were disproven by Elven Dualist wizards who specialised exclusively in the supposedly opposing spell schools.

After doing some reading, the RP for this Duelist might be quite fun
