Depending upon the GM, the minor illusion cantrip may be used to block vision in at least one direction without the necessity of concentration. Dropping prone could have helped protect you from ranged spell attacks.  It's not really possible to posit anything beyond that without knowing what resources you had available.  There ARE a variety of spells that DO shut down spellcasting.  For example - a suggestion to do something time consuming.  The sleep spell if the caster has been sufficiently wounded.  They each have their downsides of course.</blockquote>
