I didn't find anything on the search so not sure if this particular combo has been discussed before. Thought I'd chuck it on here to see what you think.
Assuming the DM allows multiclassing, UA feats and UA fighting styles, I was thinking about the character build that exploits... er, makes...
I'm glad that Prestidigitation is the clear winner. Hands down. Its worth it just to instantly clean and press your clothes!
Second for me would be Minor Illusion. So useful for briefings... in 3D!!!
However, I'm a little surprised that Thaumaturgy doesn't get a look in. Subtler than Presti...
I think 3 and 4 are huuuuuge. 3 people I've met randomly have said they've watched Acquisitions or Critical Role and would like to play a game. That's 2 more in the last year than all my social interactions for the past 30 years! Social media and the internet have done a lot to demystify and...
I'd say technically no, because the readied attack happens before the action that caused it so the caster isn't maintaining concentration yet by 5e standards (although I think in 3e you could ready to disrupt a spell, I forget now it was a long time ago).

The guys with SS and GWM! ;)
Seriously though, to maximise his dps he needs to get in another sneak attack via the battlemasters manoeuvre Commanders Strike. Grants an attack via a reaction. Not sure if there are other abilities that grant attacks on a reaction.
Evil? No. Weird? Yeah kinda...
Its not drugs, alcohol or friends you didn't like, you banned him from a version of a roleplaying game you don't like?! Geez, if only all parents had dilemmas that easy to resolve.
Back in 3.5e days I bought that "Tome of Erotic Fantasy" in a misguided attempt to get my GF into DnD. Just an awful awful book. Don't know what I was thinking.
This. So much this.
And how do we know this? Guardians of the Galaxy. Completely leftfield property, known to a handful of diehard comic lovers. Awesome.
Also, Pirates of the Caribbean (significantly, made before Marvel rewrote the way studio movies are made). That film was waaaaay better...
I don't doubt that he's correct but these announcements don't necessarily mean anything. The studios do them 2 years out just to gauge the interest in the property. Around about the time you see the director and the actors together in promotional photos and giving interviews is when to take notice.
