Profile

Wizard is a versatile setup character with high mobility and excellent screen control. Their extremely well-rounded suite of projectiles is useful at every stage of gameplay. Wizard boasts some of the most consistent and powerful neutral in the game due to Magic Dart, a homing projectile with incredible aiming freedom that's +1 on block. Flamewave compliments this nicely, acting as a large, unparriable, ground-sweeping hitbox to force opponents to go where you want them to or risk getting mixed. Vile clutch rounds out the team well with its incredibly fast recovery, good + frames, and OTG hitbox, giving Wizard consistent combo conversions and okizeme in just one move. Air mobility through hover and fastfall also makes jumping a great idea, as you're often able to have both a completely safe and a very dangerous option on the same turn versus grounded opponents. Combining this with below-average recovery on most normals and good range on all of them completes Wizard's famously solid midrange game.

These strengths shine even brighter with meter, as Wizard's supers are without a doubt the best in the game. Telekinesis presents insane neutral threat with its speed and safety. Spark bomb is an ironclad zoning wall that ignores projectile invulnerability but can also be spent for high combo damage or incredible aggression with the "Spark Install" speed buff that it gives upon detonation. And, of course, Orb is notorious for being an incredibly powerful and general-purpose gameplan. It's capable of spawning 3 new types of projectiles asynchronously as Wizard throws out attacks, and can be moved around as a free action, turning Wizard into a terrifying puppet character until you run out of meter.

All of this of course has its costs, however - Wizard is the only character in the game unable to put out a hitbox in 4 frames or faster. While Confusing Touch and a strong roll help counteract this somewhat, close range RPS is still very disadvantaged. Wizard's mobility is also largely tied to the Gravity resource bar, and with it depleted, they become a comically vulnerable sitting duck in the air with only middling ground speed. While their midrange normals are strong, they can often be predictable and susceptible to parry fishing in neutral, forcing odd hard callouts to get their pressure started. And, finally, once you do make it in, Wizard's pressure game can often be awkward, short-lived, or low-reward due to high block pushback, only a single short-ranged guard break, and no oki off of grab.

Overall, Wizard is a character with a rich suite of moves, setups, and tech allowing great player expression and playstyle versatility, letting you zone until the clock hits 0 or approach aggressively behind your projectiles.

Strengths	Weaknesses
Flexible Projectiles: Magic Dart, Flamewave, and Vile Clutch compliment each other well and can be used at all stages of gameplay. Mental Stack: Wizard excels at creating obscure, hard-to-see threats and advantaged positions from neutral using projectiles and fastfall, leading to lots of unexpected hits. Excellent Mobility: Hover, Fastfall, and movement tech like BHopping make it trivial to end up in the right place at the right time. Strong Okizeme: Vile Clutch can make some soft knockdowns just as rewarding as a hard knockdown, leading into scary blockstrings with solid chip damage. Neutral Threat Range: Long-range harassment with Geyser and mid-range poking with Conjure Weapon and Mana Strike make it hard to stay safe against Wizard. Incredible Supers: While the other 2 supers are great for their uses, orb is a gameplan-in-a-can, significantly enhancing wizard's combos, neutral, advantage, and disadvantage.	Weak Close Range: The lack of a 4f jab and no okizeme off grab leave wizard quite vulnerable to getting pressured up close or snowballed off of meaties. Meter Feeder: Many of Wizard's projectile options can end up giving the opponent free parries for meter if not used carefully. Meter Hungry: Orb, Wizard's strongest neutral tool, isn't available until you have at least 3 bars of meter, and drains meter constantly while it's out, meaning that getting comboed with it out often means a reset to 0 meter. Other characters also tend to see more immediacy in their meterless or 1-meter gameplans and build it faster than you because they're approaching more often. No Mix: Wizard's guard breaks, Conjure Storm and Combustion, are pitifully and short-ranged, and their grab has comparatively low reward on hit. Gets Neutral Skipped: Tools that force close-range RPS can often ignore all of wizard's fancy midrange and just guess right at point-blank, stealing games off of sheer probability alone.

Move List

Unique Mechanics

Hover & Fall

I believe I can flyyyyyy.....

Wizard's unique movement mechanic. Toggling hover puts Wizard into a floating state that slows their fall and dampens vertical momentum. Limited only by the hover bar. Toggling fall increases Wizard's downward momentum. Fundamental to Wizard's air combos. Great for prediction mixups.

Toggle Hitboxes

Moisture

locally sourced tears of your enemies

One charge of Moisture is gained every time the wizard lands a hit in neutral or parries, can hold up to three charges. Moisture can then be used on Geyser.

Greedy and situational mixup tool that's important to represent because of its insane reward. Comically plus on hit with Wizard's best damage-per-hit, as the 2 hits together only scale the combo once. Should be routed into whenever possible. Summons lightning when used with orb.

Useful for stuffing approaches with its convenient active frames window. Summons swords when used with Orb. Has a down version that shorthops into the aerial version, colloquially known as "upcicle", "hopsicle", or "jumpsicle. Beats grab for heavy reward, but only while +1. Niche anti-air useful in closer-range scrambles. While the predictions say it's +1, it's actually very bad on block because it cannot self-cancel into another air icicle. Use cautiously in pressure.

Wizard casts a spell, summoning a Magic Dart. Can be Free Canceled. But you usually shouldn't free cancel. Tracks forever until it hits your opponent. Aimable, allowing you to threaten a wide variety of spaces in neutral. It is generally considered better to do slower dart angles than to full-send it at the opponent, as this makes it harder to parry. Careful aiming it around their block to barely avoid a parry can make it a powerful pressure option, locking the opponent down for a turn. Bounces off of the ground but disappears at the wall. Combined with Gust and careful angle selection, this covers space and makes Wizard much more of a threat at midrange. Opposing Wizards can gust your magic dart into the floor, destroying it.

Flips the opponent's facing direction and horizontal velocity on hit. A situational reversal tool, which can cause an opponent to whiff a move. Is very slow on recovery itself, leading to disadvantage against fast moves or losing to 4f buttons outright when given enough momentum. Often doesn't work when you or the opponent have high horizontal momentum, flipping the attack back into you. Ineffective against grabs and invulnerable moves. Unblockable. Does a miniscule but unblockable amount of damage on hit, making it a niche option to finish off low health opponents.

Wizard summons a slow-moving Flame Wave that travels across the screen. Active for 1 frame every 5 frames. Covers a ton of space in neutral without much cost. Unparriable. Dictates the matchup against Ninja and Robot, forcing the opponent into the air. Decent pressure tool to set up high chip damage blockstrings using orb.

The second most versatile move in Wizard's kit. Free cancellable. Consumes an air option if used in the air. Wizard turns into a missile and sends themself forward, turning themself into a hitbox and creating an explosive backblast. Enables tech known as benjihopping (colloquially known as "bhopping"), which is done by toggling Fall and doing Missile Form at any upwards angle, giving you a 13f actionable movement option that carries your momentum. Enabling free cancel on a benjihop has no effect on actionalbe frames and should be disabled whenever performing a benjihop Performing a benjihop will restore all air options, allowing for massive vertical height while maintaining both air options Builds meter, shoots Orb darts, and is a generally safe approach option that you should be going for if you can afford the gravity cost. The explosive hitbox (colloquially known as "Backblast") is an excellent combo ender and has mid-combo niches at the wall and as a hard DI read.

Massive anti-air windbox that pulls them into a large blockable hitgrab, with a second unblockable command grab hitbox closer to Wizard's hand. If the command grab or hitgrab connect, follows up into a detonation move. Summons swords when orb is out. Combos with huge reward on DI up, but otherwise will go straight into soft knockdown.

Gust

Damage	Startup	Active	First Actionable	Frame Advantage *	Guard	Proration	Block Advantage	Air OK
-	4	Entire Duration	18	-	-	0	-	Yes
Aimable windbox that strongly pushes projectiles and weakly pushes the opponent. Windbox strength gradually decays after each use in a combo, and then resets at the end of said combo. Pushes Wizard in the opposite direction of the Gust. Does not push them off the ground unless Hover is toggled. The most versatile and arguably the most important move in Wizard's kit. Is combo glue similar to Cowboy's Teleport, getting them close enough with ample frame advantage to hit them again. Also allows Wizard to slam Spark Bombs into opponents for massive damage and frame advantage. Being roughly +14 after Spark Bomb should give you an angle that works. Can extend wallsplats from distances where it normally wouldn't hit - if a move like Conjure Weapon doesn't quite knock them far enough to wallsplat, Gusting them into the wall for the splat will normally give great frame advantage. Creates very scary and multifaceted neutral by making Wizard's projectiles more threatening by: Shoving projectiles forward to catch opponents off guard from midrange. Shoving projectiles upward to safely call out jumps. Delaying projectile hits with backwards gust to prevent parry in some niche scenarios. Turning Spark Bomb into a scary space-denial tool, as being within Gusting range of one forces the opponent to play neutral much more carefully. Gusting many of the games projectiles into the floor will destroy them (magic dart, flame wave, shurikan, etc) There are even more uses too niche to list here, but this covers most cases. Gust is one of the major centerpieces of Wizard's gameplan and generates a lot of threat and mental stack simply by existing.

Is actually just a big slow melee hitbox. Can hitcancel into itself for big damage. Land cancellable. Requires at least one drop of moisture to use, and can power up by spending additional droplets. When whiff canceled before hitbox comes out, droplets are not consumed. A long range poke which can be used to call out committal projectiles and setup moves. Against movement, usually forces either a roll or a block. Whether it hits or is blocked, Geyser will do solid damage and build a respectable chunk of meter for Wizard, making it a great "why not" option when bored at fullscreen that can be set up with land cancels to become much safer. Situational but massively rewarding combo tool, able to be followed up on under certain spacing conditions. Otherwise functions as Wizard's second-best ender.

First hit can hit opponents on the ground. Unparryable. Distance can be set with slider. Vile hand reaches out of the ground. Useful for extending combos at range. In neutral, it is a noncomittal, low-reward projectile that can cut off retreats or force a response out of passive opponents doing setup. Excellent at pressuring falling opponents and forcing out air options. If you have extra frames right before a knockdown, Vile Clutch on the opponent grants strong, airtight okizeme.

Bomb is able to explode as soon as 20 frames after spawning. Ignores projectile immunity, acting as a normal strike for those purposes. Upon being triggerd, it will detonate in 2 frames. If the "Spark" toggle is turned on, the conjuring wizard will also cause the spark bomb to detonate upon entering its radius. Conjuring wizard can take 310 self damage from the spark bomb on detonation, and will launch the wizard without putting them in hitstun. When a spark bomb detonates, the conjuring wizard gains Spark Install for 70 frames. Spark Install makes Missile Form +2 on block and greatly enhances its speed. All of wizards movement options are supercharged during Spark Install, resulting very fast movement. A high-damage, massive-hitstun tracking projectile. Can be used in neutral with Gust for terrifying threat, in combos also with gust to do massive damage in just a few hits, or far away just to give yourself "Spark Install" and approach at mach 5 with a bhop. The spark toggle can also let you use it as something of a shield, forcing nasty parry 50/50s up close with the unrollable frame 2 explosion While Spark Bomb is an extremely strong tool early game, its 2 meter price tag presents a significant opportunity cost when compared with orb. It's also generally only worth using in combos when you have a lot of meter to burn, as meter-gain scaling mechanics mean that not enough of it will be earned back by the rest of the combo.
