Honestly, i don't think wizards should be really "countered". They are more or less gods among men that wreck havoc, with the rest of the crew trying to survive.
In that regard, i feel like being able to kill a wizard should be the exception, not the rule.
Having that said, i feel wizards should fight less "direct". Currently, they got too many direct combat spells at their disposal. With that, the task for security would be fighting the wizards shenanigans, not the wizard itself.
An almost unkillable wizard that polymorphs you, creates golems and serpents or sabotages the station is quite fun to handle, an unkillable wizard that almost instantly murders you is not.
So in that regard, i would like to see the offense options for wizards being nerfed. Like a straight up 1 point cost increase on all direct damage spells and a nerf to magic missile damage would go a long way to ensure wizards to be chaos generators instead of boring mass murderers. And new utility/funky spells for them to be able to utilize.
I think if we tailor them right, they could also be enabled in RP as well. This type of antagonist is more or less perfect for gimmicks/RP-opportunities if balanced properly.
