Wall of Fire is a solid Tier 2 that performs cleanup and general damage for a low cost. Place the Wizard close to the track at an intersection or tight bend, allowing the blaze to hit more sections of track. Its main weaknesses are Purples, which disintegrate the blazes, and lack of Camo Detection without sacrificing wall of fire uptime.
Wall of Fire is a solid Tier 2 that performs cleanup and general damage for a low cost. Place the Wizard close to the track at an intersection or tight bend, allowing the blaze to hit more sections of track. Its main weaknesses are Purples, which disintegrate the blazes, and trading off crosspath preferences.


Wall of Fire is also a solid crosspath for many Wizard upgrades, including interactions with damage scaling of [[Necromancer: Unpopped Army|Necromancer]] and [[Prince of Darkness (BTD6)|Prince of Darkness]], and the significant MOAB-class damage from [[Archmage (BTD6)|Archmage]].

Its best crosspath alone is 1-2-0, as [[Guided Magic (BTD6)|Guided Magic]] will improve the wall of fire to have virtually full uptime.<!--4.5+2=6.5, vs 6.5--> More pierce from [[Intense Magic (BTD6)|Intense Magic]] is not needed unless the player is doing a [[Race Event]]. Although 0-2-2 is a reliable counter to Camo Leads, it's not reliable against Camo Pinks, external camo detection or other camo poppers are preferred to handle midgame Camo Leads, and 1-1-0 Sniper for early Camo Leads.
