The Wizard

Description
"Hello there! I'm The Wizard!"

The Wizard is a simple-to-learn but "hard"-to-master character, with many powerful spells at his disposal. While he might seem frail and senile at first glance, he's more than capable of putting up a fight. His play style is a hybrid of up-close and ranged combat, with large and powerful strong attacks to finish things off.

What's his real name, I hear you ask? He swears it's really "The Wizard".

Special Moves

Neutral Special: Fireball

The most classic spell in any wizard's kit, The Wizard uses Fireball to pelt his foes from afar. That's simple, you say? You won't still be saying that when you're on fire.

Down Special: Whirlwind

The Wizard casts a whirling tornado that accelerates towards the opponent. One might say this could "force" the opponent into an "option" as you "approach" them, or whatever the kids say nowadays.

Side Special: Spark of Confusion

With a few sparks from his fingers, The Wizard turns the enemy right around! Is someone about to f-strong you? are they recovering high from offstage? With a small pinch of magic, all these problems and more can be solved with a (literal) flick of the wrist.

Up Special: Magic Twirl

This one doesn't do much offensively, but you do get to see The Wizard do a little spin through the air.

Other Notes

The Wizard has a lot more than just special moves at his disposal. The only way to see his true, marvelous strength is to download him and test him out yourself!

@invinciblerainbowarrow After going back and taking a look at the move, yes, that launch angle was definitely overlooked in my last patch. The Wizard has plenty of other tools, and nerfing f-tilt a bit felt justified, so I made it a little more fair in exchange for giving it some more damage.

The changes are live, check them out!

ftilt feels like it sends at such a harsh angle to recover from. I love everything else about The Wizard, it's just frustrating to play against when a move as common as ftilt can kill at 40 from center
