In the story and on the track
Wizards prepare spells from a Spellbook before a match. Mana limits a kit that combines damage, control, mobility, and utility. Wizard players arrive with an opinion about preparation. Some annotate every encounter in a Spellbook; others swear by the same dependable selection until a rival finally forces a revision. Arcane Wizards pursue the elegance of magic and time, Elemental Wizards the force of fire and frost, and Storm Wizards the freedom of moving with wind and lightning. A full Mana pool feels like possibility, but the pleasure lies in choosing the spell that makes preparation pay off.
Resource rhythm
Wizards have a large Mana pool that limits their spellcasting. They prepare spells from a Spellbook before a match.
How it fits a build
Class and Spec each occupy one of the four core ability slots. Six stat slots complete the ten-ability layout. Class progression abilities are slot-free and level-gated; selecting a path does not automatically grant every alternative path. Costs, targets, timing, and access requirements still apply.
