Finishing blows for destruction spells?

Wouldn't that have been neat? Maybe the basic ones are where you just charge up one big blast and it does slow-mo and camera effect like the physical attacks. And the higher-level ones (maybe for perks or whatever you chose to be strongest in) are things like


Frost from a distance: Hit them with two huge spikes with a 'one-two!' and they freeze
Frost up close: Grab their face and freeze their whole body

Fire from a distance: Make them explode, lol
Fire up close: Grab their face and make their character model turn into those 'burned corpses'

Shock from a distance: Make an actual lightning bolt come from the sky and turn them to ashes.
Shock up close: Grab the target's face and shock their whole body until they turn to ashes.


Bethesda probably won't do this, I know. Maybe the modding community can give destruction some finishing move love :]

yeah would have been cool and now more graphic than dropping a guy to his knees and slicing his head clean off with two daggers. I like the turn to ashes idea that would be cool.

Finishers would be a great addition to magic! if combat can have them then why not, and It would make me feel quite powerful as well, not that magic already doesn't of course :D
