Supernova Gargantuar is most useful against decks that use 3-4 copies of the same plant, and against themed decks that revolve around a single type of plant. The most notable examples of this are rush decks using [[Pineclone]]s to boost weaker plants or decks involving [[Snake Grass]]. His ability can also be used to eliminate plants on the [[Pair Pearadise]] environment or to sweep up {{PvZHLink|Puff-Shroom}}s created by [[Mushroom Grotto]].

To get the greatest effect out of his ability, a Gargantuar deck is optimal. Play another Gargantuar on the leftmost instant of said plant while Supernova Gargantuar is on the rightmost ground lane to clear out other lanes before combat there.

Template:HeropicSupernova Gargantuar is a galacticlegendaryzombiecard in Plants vs. Zombies Heroes and a member of the Beastly class. He costs 5 to play, has 5/7, and has the Frenzy trait, and his ability destroys all copies of a plant that is destroyed by any Gargantuar on the field, including himself. This ability persists until all Supernova Gargantuars are removed.
This card is mainly based around a Gargantuar. It is also based off of a supernova, which is when a star reaches the end of its lifespan and consequently explodes. His ability most likely represents the star's explosion, which wipes out everything in the area.

Strategies
With
Supernova Gargantuar has great stats for a 5 zombie, being big enough to take most hits, and strong enough to Frenzy past most non-defensive plants. Being a science zombie, Immorticia can use him to great extent in a science deck. Alternatively, she can combine him with Wizard Gargantuar to break through the plant hero's defenses. Not to mention Immorticia can also use Lurch for Lunch with this if there is a Pineclone threat on the field, which can wipe the field clean before combat, possibly leaving a Kabloom hero defenseless and at a major loss of cards.
Supernova Gargantuar is most useful against decks that use 3-4 copies of the same plant, and against themed decks that revolve around a single type of plant. The most notable examples of this are rush decks using Pineclones to boost weaker plants or decks involving Snake Grass. His ability can also be used to eliminate plants on the Pair Pearadise environment or to sweep up Template:PvZHLinks created by Mushroom Grotto.
To get the greatest effect out of his ability, a Gargantuar deck is optimal. Play another Gargantuar on the leftmost instant of said plant while Supernova Gargantuar is on the rightmost ground lane to clear out other lanes before combat there.
Note that even though Supernova Gargantuar destroys plants with his ability, his ability will not trigger the Frenzy trait.
He can also be played for 3 if there is a Gargologist on the field, allowing him to be a threat to your opponent early in the game.
Against
Being a high-stat zombie with Frenzy, the best option to eliminate him and other Gargantuars with hard removal cards such as Squash, Shamrocket, or Template:PvZHLink. If that cannot be done, use Freeze, Bounce, or play high-attack plants to knock him out of the running as fast as possible.
The best defensive against his ability is to keep a diverse team of plants, ensuring that no two cards on the field are of the same type. If you are using Pineclone to rush the opponent, consider using Molekale to help keep the team diverse.
