Electro Wizard

What it looks like

The Electro Wizard is a Legendary card that is unlocked from the Electro Valley (Arena 11). It spawns a fast, multi-target, air-targeting, medium-ranged, ground troop with moderate hitpoints and moderate damage. The Electro Wizard's attack stuns his targets for 0.5 seconds. If 2 or more targets are within his range, his attack will split and attack the closest 2 units. He spawns with a Zap upon deployment. He appears as a Wizard with blue eyes, long ears, black spiky hair, eyebrows and moustache, wearing a team-colored suit with gold linings and wristbands, a belt, and black boots. An Electro Wizard card costs 4 Elixir to deploy.

Trivia

• The word "Wizard" comes from the Middle English "wys", meaning wise. In the German, Persian, and Vietnamese language settings of the game, the Wizard's name translates to "Electro Magician". In the Spanish, Italian, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese, and Thai language settings of the game, the Electro Wizard's name translates to "Electric Wizard". In the Chinese and Finnish language settings of the game, the Wizard's name translates to "Thunder Mage" and "Lightning Wizard" respectively.
• The word "Electro" come from the Greek word "ἤλεκτρον" (elektron), meaning amber, referring to its electrostatic capabilities. Electricity was first detected through electric fish from as far back as 2750 BCE where Ancient Egyptian texts described them as the "protectors" of all other fish. At around 600 BCE, Thales of Miletus made a series of observations on static electricity, from which he believed that friction rendered amber magnetic, in contrast to minerals such as magnetite, which needed no rubbing. Thales was incorrect in believing the attraction was due to a magnetic effect, but later science would prove a link between magnetism and electricity. Electricity would remain little more than an intellectual curiosity for millennia until 1600, when the English scientist William Gilbert wrote De Magnete, in which he made a careful study of electricity and magnetism, distinguishing the lodestone effect from static electricity produced by rubbing amber. The Electro Wizard is 1 of 11 cards associated with electricity, with the others being Electro Spirit, Zap, Tesla, Zappies, Electro Dragon, Electro Giant, Lightning, Sparky, Wizard Trio, and the Goblinstein.
• The Electro Wizard is 1 of 4 troops that can deal damage to multiple units with one attack without an area damage radius, the others being Electro Spirit, Hunter, and Electro Dragon.
• The Electro Wizard, the Mega Knight, and the Ice Wizard are the only troops that deal spawn damage. The Electro Wizard used to have a "Crown Tower Spawn Damage" statistic despite the fact that its restricted deployment meant its spawn damage could never hit a Crown Tower. This was most likely because he spawned with a Zap instead of having his own spawn damage. This, however, was removed from the statistics in the Champions Update.
• The Electro Wizard was the first card to be introduced in the game through a Challenge.
• The Electro Wizard is 1 of 14 troops that has been featured with a Rage buff, the others being Electro Spirit, Giant, Zappies, Guards, Giant Skeleton, Goblin Giant, Electro Dragon, Wall Breakers, Electro Giant, Mega Knight, Ram Rider, Sparky, and Royal Ghost.
• The Electro Wizard is 1 of 15 troops which bring an excited reaction from the audience upon spawning and brings a collective groan from the audience when defeated, as well as a concerning gasp when the opponent plays him, the others include Royal Giant, Giant, P.E.K.K.A, Giant Skeleton, Rune Giant, Goblin Giant, Golem, Bowler, Inferno Dragon, Sparky, Lava Hound, Night Witch, Super Lava Hound, and the Monk.
• The Electro Wizard might be a reference to Electric Wizard, a British doom metal band.
• In the Finnish language settings of the game, it is revealed that the Electro Wizard likes electronic music.
• According to the Electro Dragon's intro video, the Electro Dragon is the Electro Wizard's pet dragon.
• Upon spawning in, the Electro Wizard will yell "Electricity!", in a shaky voice. Upon dealing damage, he may yell "Zap!", "Electrify!", or "Electrons!".
