Oh... just remembered another really evil tactic for duels with pet users :)
If they dont start the fight without a pet I immediately attack the pet and
run off at top speed with the pet in hot persuit. I then deposit the pet at
the feet of the nearest giant/spectre/whatever. Kind of fun to watch the
fallout from that :)
