"Super Wizard is positively charged with magical energy! He's either the smartest person in the room... or else he blows the whole room to bits."
Level 9 and 10
Summary
The Super Wizard is a Super Troop based on the Wizard. It can be unlocked by boosting the Wizard when he is upgraded to level 9 or higher.
Boosting the Wizard requires 25,000 Dark Elixir or a Super Potion, and doing so allows the Wizard to be boosted for 3 days. The level of Super Wizard you obtain from the boost corresponds to the level of Wizard you have.
The Super Wizard attacks with mixed fire-lightning attacks that can chain to multiple targets. Unlike the Electro Dragon's chain lightning, the Super Wizard's chains branch from the primary target (as opposed to the Electro Dragon's chains branching from the previous target). This chain can hit up to nine other targets that are close enough to the primary target (doing 60% of the regular damage to each), so the overall attack can hit up to a total of ten targets.
Because of the level requirement, players require Town Hall 12 in order to boost Wizards into Super Wizards. However, players can fit the Super Wizards into any Clan Castle, allowing anyone in a clan to get one.
Super Wizards have no preferred target when attacking; they will simply attack the closest building. However, once they become aware of enemy Clan Castletroops, Heroes, or Skeleton Trap skeletons (either by being attacked themselves or by being near another friendly troop under attack), they will leave their previously targeted building and instead engage the enemy troops. Once all of the nearby enemy troops are defeated, the Super Wizards will proceed to attack the nearest structure.
Offensive Strategy
The Super Wizard has tons of damage potential. Making sure it is tanked and has many buildings to chain to is key for it to be a useful troop.
The Super Wizard can be used very similarly to the Electro Dragon, in the fact that it can chain its Lightning. However, it still needs to be backed up by tanks if it is to go into the core of the base.
The Super Wizard can hit up to 10 targets at once, allowing it to be a good way to dispose of a lot of defending troops such as the Headhunter or the Super Minion. Keep in mind that the Super Wizard itself needs to be protected, otherwise it itself will be defeated by the said troops.
The Super Wizard and the Invisibility Spell synergize well. Placing a spell on the super wizard towards the outside of a group will cause the Wizards to head to the inner area where they can heavily damage defenses, and then chain back to the invisible buildings while keeping the wizards themselves safe.
A good strategy with this is to fill a Battle Blimp with super wizards, send it to an area full of defenses, rage them and then use an Invisibility Spell or two on them. This can be preferred over the Yeti Blimp strategy if the buildings are greater in number and clumped, or if you wish to take out a larger area of the base while using ground troops.
The Super Wizard can easily create a funnel in a kill squad or on their own. They are especially effective in compact ring bases, which are notorious for their difficulty to create a funnel.
If possible, try to make it so that a Super Wizard will create or supplement a funnel, then head with the main army so that the wizard will get extra value and will help with other things like Clan Castle troops.
The Super Wizard can survive under mortar fire for twice as long as a regular Wizard, making it a good option to clear out trash buildings where normal wizards cannot.
The Super Wizard can quickly clear Lava Pups or Ice Pups when a Lava Hound or Ice Hound dies with its Chain Lightning ability, keeping other units in your army safe.
Defensive Strategy
Super Wizards still have low health. Making sure the outer buildings are protected by point defenses can force more expensive or ones that cannot get any value other than funneling. Double Giant Bombs can kill a super wizard if decently leveled.
Super Wizards' chain lightning can only bridge one tile gaps diagonally at most. Separating defenses by two tiles can make super wizards a waste of space and render their ability useless.
Scattershots can damage the Super Wizard even if there is a ground troop in front tanking for it. They can dispose of the wizards in one or two shots and damage their tank as well.
To defend against the strategy where they are deployed in the middle of a base by Battle Blimps and hidden by Invisibility Spells, you can build spread out compartments to minimize chain damage. Alternatively, you can use traps to either destroy the Battle Blimp before it reaches the intended deployment location, or use Giant Bombs and/or Spring Traps to destroy the Super Wizards before they can do much damage.
Trivia
You can have a maximum of 30 Super Wizards at one time in a complete set of fully upgraded Army Camps. This number increases to 34 if you include the 4 that can fit into a level 8 or higher Clan Castle. On the battlefield, you can clone an additional 9 Super Wizards with three level 5 or higher Clone Spells.
Super Wizard's eyes glow in the artwork, but remain normal in battle. Additionally, the robe is lighter in battle but that may be part to the lighting for the artwork.
The Super Wizard is partly based on the Electro Wizard from Clash Royale, in the fact that it has electricity as its attacks.
This would technically complete the wizard trio of the Ice Wizard, Wizard, and Electro Wizard, as the normal Wizard would represent itself, the Ice Wizard represent itself, and the Super Wizard represents the Electro Wizard.
The Electro Dragon's charging sound can be heard coming from the Super Wizard in battle while he attacks.
