A '''wizard''' is an administrator of a [[MUD]], [[MUSH]], [[MUX]], or [[MUCK]].  A wizard has the highest level of access to the world of a MUD and may be authorised to [[toading|toad]] users (delete their accounts), authorize people to build on to the world, and get detailed information about who is connected to the system. They usually have full rights with respect to any integrated programming languages (see [[MUF]]).

[[ProtoMUCK]] and its predecessor, [[GlowMUCK]], support multiple wizard levels. Headwizards (W4) are the highest ranked staff and are generally the chief administrators of the MUCK. Archwizards (W3) and wizards (W2) have less permissions. Mages (W) are not normally counted as wizards. Rather, they are [[Helpstaff]] with additional permissions. [[Furscape]], for example, is one MUCK that uses the multiple wizard levels provided by ProtoMUCK.

The Wizard is a {{Rarity|Rare}} [[Cards|card]] that is unlocked from [[Arenas|Spell Valley (Arena 4)]]. He is an area-damage, medium-ranged [[:Category:Troop Cards|troop]] with moderate low hitpoints and moderately high damage output. A Wizard card costs 5 [[Elixir]] to deploy.

Wizards may be well-known members of the community, use [[alt]]s for roleplaying or other interaction, or in some cases (for example, [[Tapestries MUCK]]) wizards may be anonymous to protect their identities.
+
==Strategy==
 +
*The Wizard's high damage per second and decent hit speed in addition to his ranged area damage makes him effective at supporting high hitpoint tanks by quickly clearing out clumped up troops in their way. This works the other way around; he can defend well against many pushes, as troops funnel together when they cross the bridge.
 +
*To deal with big swarms, he must be placed at a far range since he has a slightly slow fire rate.
 +
*If there is another [[:Category:Troop Cards|troop]] available to tank for the Wizard's attack, all swarms can help counter a Wizard that has crossed the bridge. The [[Barbarians]] are the only swarm bulky enough and spread out enough to consistently not require the use of another card.
 +
*The Wizard's damage output is enough to prevent a [[Balloon]] from landing any more than its death damage on a [[Princess Tower]].
 +
*When compared to other area damage cards that can hit both air and ground troops like the [[Baby Dragon]] or a single [[Skeleton Dragons|Skeleton Dragon]], the damage a Wizard deals per attack is enough to one shot [[Minions]], [[Goblins]], and the [[Guards]]' shields, as well as two shot Skeleton Dragons. If the player struggles against these units, the Wizard may be the best option to take care of them swiftly.
 +
*If a Wizard has already connected to the player's [[:Category:Crown Towers|Crown Tower]], their counter unit should not be placed near the Tower as their unit may take unnecessary damage. This goes the other way around too: If the player deploys their counter very late close to their Crown Tower, it can result in a lot of easily avoidable Crown Tower damage.
 +
*Due to their moderate hitpoints, Wizards are very vulnerable to moderate high damaging spell cards such as the [[Fireball]]. A higher level Fireball will always destroy a Wizard.
 +
*When trying to counter a Wizard, deploy moderate to high hitpoint troops to eliminate him, such as the [[Mini P.E.K.K.A.|Mini P.E.K.K.A]], [[Knight]] or [[Valkyrie]].
 +
*The Wizard is very similar to a [[Bomber]], except that he can target air troops and has more hitpoints, but he costs more [[Elixir]]. Additionally, it is very difficult to effectively surround the Bomber with low or moderate hitpoint troops, as the Bomber has a larger splash radius than the Wizard, meaning he will almost always hit most or all of the troops he is surrounded him with.
 +
*One cheap way to counter the Wizard is the [[Musketeer]], due to her fast hit speed and decent damage, making an easy 1 Elixir profit. An equal level Wizard, however, will leave the Musketeer with less than half its health.
 +
*The Wizard pairs excellently with the [[Tornado]], as the Tornado drags troops into the middle while the Wizard splashes all the units in the center of the Tornado.
 +
*The Wizard is a great counter against the [[Lava Hound]] since he has high damage per second and is also able to one shot the Lava Pups. If timed perfectly, the Wizard's fireball will launch before the Lava Pups have a chance to spread, defeating all of them before they can do any damage. However, because of how much time there is for the opponent to respond (e.g. by using a [[:Category:Spell Cards|spell]] on the Wizard), getting this timing down is very rare.
 +
*The [[Barbarian Barrel]] is able to counter a lone Wizard for a 3 Elixir profit. Place it so that the barrel hits the Wizard and the Barbarian pops out behind him and distracts him. The Barbarian and the Princess Tower combined will be able to defeat the Wizard.

 +
*Occasionally when attacking and during his deployment time, the Wizard exclaims “Magic!”, “Fire!”, “Showtime!”, or “Fireball!”, references to the Clash of Clans [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6BsTLlR40kM Magic commercial].
 +
**He shouts “Showtime” or “Magic” when he is spawned but only if another card is not selected immediately after, otherwise only his spawn noise will play.

Wizard
 The most awesome man to ever set foot in the Arena, the Wizard will blow you away with his handsomeness... and/or fireballs.
   
Wizard

The Wizard is a Template:Rarity card that is unlocked from Spell Valley (Arena 4). He is an area-damage, medium-ranged troop with moderate low hitpoints and moderately high damage output. A Wizard card costs 5 Elixir to deploy.

Strategy

  • The Wizard's high damage per second and decent hit speed in addition to his ranged area damage makes him effective at supporting high hitpoint tanks by quickly clearing out clumped up troops in their way. This works the other way around; he can defend well against many pushes, as troops funnel together when they cross the bridge.
  • To deal with big swarms, he must be placed at a far range since he has a slightly slow fire rate.
  • If there is another troop available to tank for the Wizard's attack, all swarms can help counter a Wizard that has crossed the bridge. The Barbarians are the only swarm bulky enough and spread out enough to consistently not require the use of another card.
  • The Wizard's damage output is enough to prevent a Balloon from landing any more than its death damage on a Princess Tower.
  • When compared to other area damage cards that can hit both air and ground troops like the Baby Dragon or a single Skeleton Dragon, the damage a Wizard deals per attack is enough to one shot Minions, Goblins, and the Guards' shields, as well as two shot Skeleton Dragons. If the player struggles against these units, the Wizard may be the best option to take care of them swiftly.
  • If a Wizard has already connected to the player's Crown Tower, their counter unit should not be placed near the Tower as their unit may take unnecessary damage. This goes the other way around too: If the player deploys their counter very late close to their Crown Tower, it can result in a lot of easily avoidable Crown Tower damage.
  • Due to their moderate hitpoints, Wizards are very vulnerable to moderate high damaging spell cards such as the Fireball. A higher level Fireball will always destroy a Wizard.
  • When trying to counter a Wizard, deploy moderate to high hitpoint troops to eliminate him, such as the Mini P.E.K.K.A, Knight or Valkyrie.
  • The Wizard is very similar to a Bomber, except that he can target air troops and has more hitpoints, but he costs more Elixir. Additionally, it is very difficult to effectively surround the Bomber with low or moderate hitpoint troops, as the Bomber has a larger splash radius than the Wizard, meaning he will almost always hit most or all of the troops he is surrounded him with.
  • One cheap way to counter the Wizard is the Musketeer, due to her fast hit speed and decent damage, making an easy 1 Elixir profit. An equal level Wizard, however, will leave the Musketeer with less than half its health.
  • The Wizard pairs excellently with the Tornado, as the Tornado drags troops into the middle while the Wizard splashes all the units in the center of the Tornado.
  • The Wizard is a great counter against the Lava Hound since he has high damage per second and is also able to one shot the Lava Pups. If timed perfectly, the Wizard's fireball will launch before the Lava Pups have a chance to spread, defeating all of them before they can do any damage. However, because of how much time there is for the opponent to respond (e.g. by using a spell on the Wizard), getting this timing down is very rare.
  • The Barbarian Barrel is able to counter a lone Wizard for a 3 Elixir profit. Place it so that the barrel hits the Wizard and the Barbarian pops out behind him and distracts him. The Barbarian and the Princess Tower combined will be able to defeat the Wizard.
