Card description
Has every single issue of Deep Sea Quarterly, but rarely has time to read them.

With
He is a really powerful zombie. With a solid 6/6, he can destroy tough plants while surviving powerful attacks like or Sizzle. If he is boosted from Wizard Gargantuar and Smashing Gargantuar or played on an aquatic lane when against Solar Flare, Chompzilla, or Captain Combustible, this can easily end the game in the favor of the zombie hero.

Because he has the Amphibious trait, you can also play it on an aquatic lane. Since most Amphibious plants are not as powerful as most ones without the Amphibious trait, he can survive a few hits in aquatic lanes and damage the plant hero. Using Vitamin Z or Galvanize on him will make him even stronger and turn him into a huge threat for the plant hero.

However, because of his high cost, this zombie can only be played later in the game, when the plant hero can also use powerful cards to deal with Deep Sea Gargantuar. You can play Gargologist to allow him to be played at least 2 turns earlier. However, this combo can only be played with The Smash or Immorticia if she gets it from Summoning.

Against
This zombie is one of the strongest Amphibious zombies, and the only Amphibious plants that can destroy him are and The Great Zucchini, but these two plants also get destroyed, unless they get boosted or if The Great Zucchini is played after Deep Sea Gargantuar. can destroy any zombie, so it is also a good counter against it. Another strategy is to use Whipvine or to move this zombie if he is on an aquatic lane, or to move him to a ground lane, since he can be in range of  or.
