The Strongest Zombie in Plants vs Zombies: Giga-gargantuar
According to the passionate Plants vs Zombies gaming community, extensive research on zombie stats and abilities, and my own experience battling the undead hordes, the Giga-gargantuar is undisputedly the strongest zombie in the Plants vs Zombies franchise so far.
Why Giga-gargantuar Stands at the Top
This super-powered giant has incredible capabilities that have cemented its position as the apex zombie:
Health: With a towering 5000 health at Level 1, the Giga-gargantuar dwarfs even high-tier zombies like the Robo-cone Zombie (1680 health) and Jurassic Bully (2800 health).
Damage: The Giga-Garg inflicts up to 1800 area damage with every smash, obliterating full chunks of your defense in seconds.
Crowd Control: Its special ability to freeze plants temporarily prevents you from deploying reinforcements or powers.
Speed: At a quick 22 speed, Giga-gargs move faster than lumbering Gargantuars to overwhelm sections rapidly.
These stats make the Giga-gargantuar an absolute menace capable of decimating entire lanes single-handedly!
When one appears on higher levels, you instantly know you‘re in for an epic boss battle requiring flawless strategy and your strongest plants to merely survive its onslaught for any chance of victory.
Countering the Colossal Threat
Of course, being passionate PvZ veterans we still believe every zombie has an Achilles Heel. Here are top tips for surviving the Giga-gargantuar based on community wisdom:
Slow it Down
Freezing, stunning, and slowing abilities are essential to limit Giga movement and attacks. Winter Melon, Stunion, Stallia — bring them all! Every second you immobilize it counts.
High Damage Barrage
Laser Bean, Magnifying Grass, Bowling Bulb. Blast it with your hardest hitting area/range plants and boost further with Plant Food for maximum pain!
Sneak Attacks
Use underground plants for surprise attacks. Potato Mines bursting under a frozen Giga, now that‘s satisfaction!
Sacrificial Play
Sometimes losing 1-2 plants is worth it to make space for demo Garg takedowns with Cherry Bomb + Jalapeno wombo combos!
Lockdown Areas
Trap Deadbeards guarding key locations to prevent Gigas reaching high value plants. Force them to smash through useless defensive layers first.
With flawless execute of such flexible counter-zombification tactics, even the Giga-gargantuar‘s pure power can eventually be overwhelmed through sustained attrition.
Zombie Power Rankings
To further illustrate why the Giga-garg stands unmatched, let‘s compare stats for the mightiest zombies:
| Zombie | Health | Damage | Speed | Abilities |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Giga-gargantuar | 5000 | 1800 AoE Smash | 22 mpc | Freezes Plants |
| Jurassic Bully | 2800 | 850 | 12 mpc | Sonic Roar Stun |
| Robo-Cone Zombie | 1680 | 220 | 33 mpc | Traffic Cone Shield |
| Fisherman Zombie | 1200 | 320 | 33 mpc | Hooks/Eats Plants |
| Octo Zombie | 1200 | 300 | 33 mpc | Octopus Kid Assists |
With no contenders even close in sheer toughness and power, it‘s case closed for the Giga King!
While the battle between plants and zombies endlessly rages on, we can expect even more dangerous zombie mutations in future. But until a mightier menace arises, the Giga-gargantuar undisputedly retains its crown as Plants vs Zombies‘ #1 ultimate zombie!
