Magic, as a principle Action Type in Trollbabe, is constrained in its application to long rituals -- when there's time to... take your time. In other words, it's lousy for snap-shot spells in a moment-to-moment crisis situation, and gets penalized if you try do something like that in middle of a brief and violent scene. Snap-shot spells are now accounted for only by the re-roll item (remembered spell). As a general rule: You can't call for a Magic conflict in a scene unless a. you've prepared to cast the spell in a previous scene.
b. if the conflict seems to be a lengthy one, by its circumstances and the nature of what's happening, so that such a time-consuming task could be undertaken without penalty.
