Wizard and Boomstick

"Boomstick: He's Wiz and I'm Boomstick. Wizard: And it's our job to analyze their weapons, armor and skills to figure out who would win a DEATH BATTLE!"

- Wizard and Boomstick at the start of an episode. "Wizard: All right, the combatants are set. Let's end this debate once and for all. Boomstick: It's time for a DEATH BATTLE!"

- Wizard and Boomstick before a fight begins.

Wizard (often shortened to Wiz) and Boomstick are the presenters of ScrewAttack!'s most popular show: DEATH BATTLE, a series that uses science and research to determine which fictional characters would win in a fight to the death.

While typically portrayed as nonviolent and harmless, it is shown in the Season 3 finale, Deadpool vs Pinkie Pie, that Wizard and Boomstick actually force the characters shown in the videos to fight and kill each other and only Fourth Wall breaking characters such as Deadpool and Pinkie Pie are even aware of their existence.

Wizard is voiced by Ben Singer and Boomstick is voiced by Chad James, and it is implied at one point that these are their real names.

Boomstick
Boomstick's history is hinted at throughout various jokes in the series. Accordingly, Boomstick's father was a zombie/pirate akin to Cervantes from Soul Calibur and Boomstick was abandoned by him at an early age, so early in fact that he earnestly considered him an imaginary friend. As a child, Boomstick grew up loving series' such as Pokemon, Power Rangers, Dragon Ball Z and Final Fantasy, as shown when he is saddened when a character from his childhood looses a fight and by him tearing up when Wiz mentioned Aerith's death in Final Fantasy 7 in the episode Link vs Cloud. At some point in his adulthood, Boomstick married and had a child (who is rumored to be Evil Craig), but eventually divorced. He later started working for ScrewAttack!.

Wizard
Little is known about Wizard's past, but it is known that, at some point in time, Boomstick played with his tachyon table saw and accidentally cut off his arm, forcing him to get a cybernetic replacement. Wizard has said that he does not mind, as he views his mechanical modification as superior to his original arm anyway.

Partnership
While the history of their partnership is largely a mystery, according to Boomstick, on the first day of work, he showed up to work naked due to forgetting his clothes.

Personalities
Wizard is a very intellectual and meticulous person and acts as the brains behind Death Battle, providing technical information and doing the math behind the character's feats and abilities. Wizard is also fairly quick to anger as well, typically because of his co-worker's incompetence, as shown when he completely loses his cool when having to explain the name of Guilty Gear's main villain, "That Man", or when he punches Boomstick for suggesting that Cyrax should've fought Sektor instead of Fulgore. It is also shown that Wiz has an extremely hard time talking to and interacting with girls, as demonstrated when Boomstick compares Mike Kirby's singing voice (which is apparently so bad it destroys all enemies on the screen) to Wiz's voice when he performs karaoke in front of ladies. Wizard, much like Boomstick, has a very clear hatred of his co-worker, frequently arguing and mocking him on various occasions, Wiz also expresses a desire to clone Boomstick, likely just so he can replace him.

Boomstick is the complete opposite of Wizard; he is rude, lazy, loud, arrogant, easily provoked and completely incompetent, having clearly not received a proper education in anything except violence. Opposed to Wiz's technical expertise, Boomstick specializes in delivering information about weapons and provides comic relief, making puns based off the characters, their abilities or their deaths to end every episode. Although it is rarely shown, Boomstick does indeed have a softer side to him. As mentioned earlier, he feels sad when ever a character he likes loses (but rarely feels compassion for them otherwise) and started to tear up when Wiz mentioned Aerith's death, he also is mentioned to have a pet turtle called Mr. Snappy that he seemingly treats well.

Powers and Abilities
Wizard has a rather large intellect and performs all calculations used to find out how powerful some characters really are. As mentioned earlier, he also has a cybernetic arm, which reportedly suffers from several glitches (although Wizard may have been joking, as he used his "glitches" as an excuse to punch Boomstick). Boomstick has vast knowledge of all kinds of weaponry and firearms and (according to him) regularly punches down trees in order to catch squirrels for supper, implying that he has some sort of super strength, although he was likely exaggerating.

As the show`s presenters, Wizard and Boomstick both share the ability to control the characters featured in Death Battle, and, while they can't directly control them (as it would go against the rules of the show) they have the power to force characters to abandon their moralities, influence their decisions and force them to fight each other, to the point where they act completely out of character (such as when Beast and Goliath decide to fight each other to the death despite being heroes and having no reason to fight). In addition to this, as stated by Wiz in a Q&A video, should a character be killed, they could always revive them if they saw a need to, as shown by them reviving Batman, Goku, Shadow the Hedgehog and Dan Habiki. It should also be noted that, on many occasions, had it not been for the interference of Wizard and Boomstick, many of the characters showcased in Death Battle would've become friends instead of killing each other, as shown in the alternate ending of Shao Kahn vs M. Bison and Deadpool vs Pinkie Pie.

Deadpool vs Pinkie Pie
As mentioned earlier, once particular instance of Wiz and Boomstick's villainy comes from the episode Deadpool vs Pinkie Pie, in which the titular characters are completely aware of their existence.

After giving a brief history lesson on Wade Wilson, Boomstick opts to skip his segment (as they had previously covered it in Deadpool vs Deathstroke) only for Deadpool to reappear and tell them that, since he has a movie out now, they have loads more footage of him to use. After going through Deadpool's history, abilities and feats, Boomstick brings up that Deadpool's healing factor is also a part of his greatest weakness, and when Deadpool questions this, Wiz explains that his years of immortality have trained him to think that he's invincible and that a clever opponent could use that to their advantage. Saying that, Wiz takes out a pencil and erases Deadpool from the video.

Later, during Pinkie's analysis, she begins talking directly to Wiz and Boomstick, frightening Boomstick. After going over her history, abilities and feats (such as when she helped her friends defeat "a glowy horse powerful enough to move the moon"), Boomstick brings up that the only way she could get any scarier would be if there were more of her, only to discover that Pinkie actually knows how to clone herself using the Magic Mirror Pool. Wizard then quickly tells Pinkie that "you'll be getting a new visitor soon, very soon, like right now soon", sending her to encounter Deadpool.

At the start of the fight, Wizard and Boomstick teleport Deadpool to the outskirts of the Everfree Forest and he greets them, eagerly asking them "who's the lucky victim?" Only to be both confused and disappointed when he realizes he's going to be fighting a pink horse. Deadpool and Pinkie begin fighting (after Pinkie uncharacteristically kicks Deadpool for interrupting her welcome song), but they both stop fighting and become friends when they both realize they can break the fourth wall (Deadpool uses the like/dislike bar as a light-saber and Pinkie uses an advertisement for "Super Rad Raygun" to defend herself). After jumping out of the video and going into various previous Death Battle episodes (Batman vs Captain America, Ken vs Terry and Amy Rose vs Ramona Flowers), Deadpool discovers one of the Death Battle Cast's podcasts and says that they are the ones responsible for sticking them and other characters into fights to the death. When asked by Pinkie if he means Wiz and Boomstick, he tells her that he's talking even more meta than that.

Upon entering the video, Deadpool confronts Ben ("the idiot with the stupid face"), Chad ("the idiot with the stupid hair") and Nick ("the idiot who writes my jokes because he thinks he's funnier than me") and asks them why they would put him in another Death Battle on his birthday. Upon hearing this, Pinkie drags him out of the video and takes him to a party with the entire cast of Friendship is Magic, where he comically states "well, so much for the 'death' in Death Battle, now, right?" before he and Pinkie share a laugh while the camera fades to black.

After the "fight", Wiz and Boomstick are immediately confused and distraught by the fact that neither Deadpool or Pinkie Pie ended up killing each other, and Wiz realizes that they are the true losers of this battle.

Red Vs Blue

Throughout the episode, the frequently demonstrate the combatants' weaponry by attacking Grif with them, including shooting him multiple times with a grenade launcher, tank, assault rifle, and blades. Additionally, it was heavily implied that the Red vs Blue character Sarge is actually Boomstick's mysterious father, as he reacts awkwardly when Boomstick mentions that his father left him and his mother to join the army and never came back (although everyone except Boomstick realizes this).

Trivia

 * Boomstick apparently uses the Super Shotgun from Doom 2 as a right leg.
 * As shown in the recent promo for Balrog, to honor the life and death of his grandfather (who was killed by chickens), Boomstick performs an annual ritual sacrifice of several chickens on the anniversary of his grandfather's death, which involves them being ritualistically killed and subsequently cooked and eaten.
 * Boomstick has a fondness for animals, and has a pet turtle named Mr. Snappy and a dog named Jack Spaniels.
 * As confirmed by ScrewAttack!, should DEATH BATTLE reach its final episode, the final battle shown will be a fight to the death between Wizard and Boomstick themselves.
