User blog comment:UnofficiallyRed/The debate over Wizard and Executioner/@comment-29396184-20171011085636

You listed the Pros and Cons of Wizard and Executioner well but you forget to say that Wizard can destroy small swarms faster than an Executioner. Also, the Wizard is a much higher risk than Executioner due to his low health. Another thing is that Wizard can kill distraction units much faster than an Executioner due to his high dps this is important during a heated battle where your tank is absorbing hits and your support troops need to quickly lock onto the crown tower.

TBH I think he needs a 6% or 11% health buff that way he can survive a fireball 1 level higher. That's it he is balanced in everything else.

Also at tournament standards, he has 598 not 656.
