Plants vs Zombies 2 - Zomboss - Seedium Showcase - Bamboo Spartan - July 2024

Plant of the Week - Bamboo Spartan - was offered between July 14, 2024 through July 21, 2024.

Bamboo Spartan costs 175 Sun.
Bamboo Spartan does 35 damage to all zombies within two (2) tiles in front of him. (+10 per level. An additional +5 at level 8.)
Bamboo Spartan has a shield which can absorb 1,400 damage. (+700 per level. An additional +700 at level 2.)
Bamboo Spartan does 44x to grid items.
When Bamboo Spartan's Shield is broken, Bamboo Spartan's damage is increased by 3x.

Commentary:
Bamboo Spartan joins a long list of melee and short range plants. So Bamboo Spartan is going to need something special to make an impression.

Bamboo Spartan's shield acts like a Pumpkin barrier which gives this plant some durability. So if one needs a more defensive front line plant with decent offensive output, Bamboo Spartan fits the bill perfectly.

Bottom Line:
Like many plants in this game, Bamboo Spartan is not a bad plant. It's just that there are so many good plants that it is hard for many plants to find that niche where it can stand out above the rest.
Perks = Shields / Sun Break / Boss Buster (Damages Zomboss)

We do not get a preview of Penny's Pursuit before it is released. So what you see is what players get.

We also try to vary the strategies from week to week and showcasing different plants and strategies and ideas. Using the same strategy week after week would be boring to see.
