Any breakdowns on 'Wizard' damage?

[JMobius]

I had a disappointing end to a run last night, facing off against Mordred. I had borrowed a Magic Missile + Arcane Orb build mentioned on here the other day, and was kind of surprised how well it worked. Things were going great, Mordred had died a few times, and then... I lost 216 HP in one turn, slightly over my max HP, flatlining me instantly. I was disappointed and rather confused.

The damage was all attributed to 'Wizard', which was odd to me as I'd expect that that meant self-harm. My only spells, other than some then-unused utilities, were the aforementioned MM+AO. My final skill purchase was Void Spikes; could I have been setting that off on myself somehow?

Is there any way I could have gotten further information on what the hell happened?

I think Void Spikes can loop and kill you if you damage yourself with it, just lost a run in a similarly suspicious way

Do you still have the loss screen/combat log? It's in the saves folder. With that we can determine what happened.
