Re-Read as its been updated.
Fun Facts:

- It's ethier Mortar, Air Defense. or the Wizard Tower for next defense upgrade
- This adds 2 upgrades ( Troop + defense; which adds more play time.)

1. Better pictures
2. Damage Multiplyer: 2.0 to balloons (They do hardly anything right now.)
3. Ashlain's demonstration of the lavaloonion raid.
4. Explanation of the video.
5. Comparement to other ways to nerf the lavaloonion.
6. New pictures (Thanks Dinner)
7. Thread re-edit.
-Removal of 2x bonus on balloons. (Could of been 1.5 but I feel it's best to not include this.)
-Eddition of how it affects other attacks.
8. Damage increase
About this thread:
Why I suggest this:
It's been since Auguest 27th,2013 since the troop was upgraded. It's among the list of troops to be upgraded. I see a update for a troop coming soon. Since the Giants came December. My idea is the wizard. It adds a new level to the wizard tower so it kills 2 birds with 1 stone The wizard is already one of the favorite troops among players. (supercell too; you see those commercials?)
He also has an Afro.
How others feel
Forums:
People also support the idea but not everyone does. Some want other troops that haven't had a upgrade in just as long. I'm all for this! Tell your ideas and let people hear on your own thread. It has been stated by
rwelshjr It's part of natural game progression. We just choose what comes first.
YouTube Community:
I'm not sure how many of you guys watch YouTube on clash of clans. One YouTuber is Spencer23$. He made a statement that level 7 barch and level 7 Giants were 2 months apart. So it's likely the next thing is going to be a new troop. I agree the new troop upgrade should be the wizard. I understand they may be trying to go in order but it's the only upgrade that makes sense and wouldn't be very over powered. He got a lot of positive feedback so it's supported prett well.

How it affects attacks:
Ill list a few here:
Air:
It won't kill all air raids and might balance some.
(Lava-loonion):
In my opinion and others it's unbalanced. I did some research on the Internet and YouTube to look at other peoples attacks and how it goes. Mostly the same results as I got. So this may add a little more damage to this attack and might balance it a bit more as it is unbalanced at this point and it has been proven by
Battleborn how little skill it takes. I personally watched him place spells on the edge of the base early and randomly deploy and recieve 88% on a nearly maxed base. The dps isn't a huge increase but it's a little to maybe balance somewhat.
Comparing to other ideas that'll change gameplay:
A. "Nerf the lavahound."-LavaHound isn't the issue. It's just how strong the troop combo is. You can't nerf a troop for doing its purpose.
B."Nerf the balloons"-Yeah you could do this, but they were functioning fine before the lavaloonion raids. No need to fix it if it's not broken.
C."Add an Air-defense/Level."- There's not really a lot of space for a new building and this would hurt all air raids not just one. If a level was added then again you would be ruining all air attacks.
Ground:
The stats I suggest aren't too high that allow players to on the ground to still be effective but not break the system.
On to some stats!
Wizard level 7 (Stats)
Damage per second: 190 damage per second (previous was 180)
Training cost: 4500
Damage Per Hit: 285
Hit points: 172 hit points
Upgrade Cost: 8 mil (previous was 7.5)
Lab time: 17 days (previous 14)
Someone brought to my attention the highest is 14 days. All the upgrades follow a pattern and I decided this goes with it. It's possible a reduction can be done if this is a huge issue.
Unlocked: Lab Level 8
Appearance: You Can go about this in 2 ways.
Black wizard:
Of course flaming eyes as its predecessor level did and most max troops
(A possibility) Red on his coat lining
Red Fire balls (or black. I'm trying to encorperate the tower 10 with both the choices.)
Note: The overall design looks like this.

Red wizard and why this is the BETTER choice:
Level 6 wizard is a dark red so I think it'll only make sense to follow in the pattern of it being red. It'll certainly look better on a black wizard tower rather than a black wizard.
It'll also have flaming eyes, black coat lining and will shoot black fireballs. (Really would go well with the wizard tower.)
Note: This is the overall design.

Level 9 Wizard Tower(Stats)
As the addition to the level 7 wiz you have to add a new tower level. This is just natural progression.
Damage per second: 56 damage per second
Damage per hit: 72.4 (Following the upgrade pattern of 10.4 per upgrade.)
Hit points: 920
Upgrade cost: 7,600,000
Build time: 13 days (previous 10)
Appearance: It could be a crystal tower with a charcoal tint (level 8 is close to black so it makes sense it will match the townhall.)
Red Column crowns (like the edges of the cannons and xbows.)
Red or black wizard ( that depends on how it blends with the tower. I prefer red but ethier or.)
Lava could be added.
Note: I came up with 2 colors so there's more choices and variance to the idea :)
Black Wizard Tower: Red Orbs and a Red wizard. (With lava on collums flowing down.)

Red Tower:
Red orbs and a Black wizard.
