{{Strategy needed|Add use cases of wlp outside of "custom challenges" (2tc milks it a lot, and it seems to be the only reason when wlp is truly considered)}}

Wizard Lord Phoenix is extremely reliant on timing, both for the ability and flight patterns, in addition to lacking micromanagement value, weak non-ability attacks, and having a steep T5 cost. ~~Wizard Lord~~ Phoenix ~~is outclassed by many other T5 upgrades, and poor in [[CHIMPS]]~~. The burst of long-ranged damage is better performed by [[Plasma Monkey Fan Club (BTD6)|Plasma Monkey Fan Club]], which can be spread out to focus on different regions and ~~avoid missing~~ strays ~~in spread-out map formats. Additionally, Wizard Lord Phoenix always kills any opportunity to stall~~. Its only standout use case outside of custom challenges is Least Tiers in {{BTD6|Contested Territory}}.

Wizard Lord Phoenix is extremely reliant on timing, both for the ability and flight patterns, in addition to lacking micromanagement value, weak non-ability attacks, and having a steep cost. Furthermore, it cannot stall for more ability usages due to its global range Phoenix. The burst of long-ranged damage is better performed by [[Plasma Monkey Fan Club (BTD6)|Plasma Monkey Fan Club]], which can be spread out to focus on different regions and catch strays from faraway lanes. Its only standout use case outside of custom challenges is Least Tiers in {{BTD6|Contested Territory}}.

~~For crosspaths,~~ 2-5-0 is generally preferred for homing Lava Phoenix flames, in addition to higher DPS when the ability is inactive 0-5-2 is used when ~~needing~~ extra range or innate ~~camo~~ detection.

2-5-0 is generally preferred for homing Lava Phoenix flames (though not the meteors), in addition to higher DPS when the ability is inactive. 0-5-2 is used when the extra range and innate [[Camo detection]] is required.
