He doesn't have any traits, and his ability transforms a Zombie into a random Zombie that costs 1 more once played while passively giving all Gargantuar zombies on the field, including him, and any damaging Gargantuar tricks the Bullseye trait. This ability persists until all Wizard Gargantuars are removed from the field.
His name is a combination of "wizard," referring to his appearance, and "Gargantuar," the type of zombie he is.
His description is a reference to the trope "A Wizard Did It," which states that any minor continuity errors, nit picks, or similar things that appear in books, shows, or movies (especially fantasy-themed) can be explained with magic.

By himself, he is a powerful zombie, as not only does he have above-average stats of 6/7, but also a good ability that helps a lot if you are running a Gargantuar deck. Like Smashing Gargantuar, he can allow multiple Gargantuars to have the Bullseye trait as long as he isn't destroyed.
Immorticia has the best usage of out him, as the Beastly class has the most Gargantuar zombies. For example, she can pair him with Smashing Gargantuar, making an extremely powerful combo, as they allow all Gargantuars on the field to plow through many plants and do a great amount of unblockable damage to your opponent in a single attack.
While not as potent as Immorticia, Rustbolt can play Gargologist to play Wizard Gargantuar on the 4th turn, giving your opponent an unexpected surprise and making it even harder for them to counter him. Professor Brainstorm also has minor synergization with him, that being Zombot's Wrath, allowing it to do unblockable damage to his opponent. Super Brainz and Huge-Gigantacus can use Smoke Bomb to move Wizard Gargantuar into empty lanes in order to guarantee a hit on the Plant Hero. They also can use Laser Base Alpha to give Wizard Gargantuar Strikethrough, which will also guarantee a hit on the Plant Hero. Both Heroes also have superpwers that can be used to guarantee unblockable hits to the Plant Hero, with Super Brainz being able to use Carried Away to move Wizard Gargantuar to an empty lane and Huge Gigantacus being able to use Ice Moon to give Wizard Gargantuar Strikethrough for a cheaper cost than Laser Base Alpha.
However, Wizard Gargantuar's ability is only useful when you can hit your opponent and your opponent may play plants to block your Gargantuars. To deal with this, you can either sneak in Wizard Gargantuar with Teleport, give the Gargantuars Frenzyby playing Smashing Gargantuar or Coffee Zombie, make them do bonus attacks, or play Bouncing, damaging or instant-kill tricks on plants blocking them.
Against[]
This zombie is a huge threat, as he has great stats and the Bullseye trait for 6 brains. Getting rid of him should be a top priority, as he can do 6 damage to you without charging the block meter and allow other Gargantuars to do that as well. Therefore, prioritize him over other Gargantuars, because Wizard Gargantuar's ability is arguably one of the strongest abilities out of all Gargantuars in the game.
The easiest way is to stall him by playing a plant in front of him in order to avoid taking damage, but this strategy doesn't last long, especially if there is a Smashing Gargantuar in play. You can stall by Freezing or Bouncing it and even destroy it with Winter Squash.
You can destroy him by either using powerful plants or playing instant-kill cards such as Squash or Shamrocket. You can also use Doom-Shroom but be wary, as it may also destroy your plants when you play it.
