The Digestion time should be dynamic, and vary depending on the HP of the zombie the plant eats. If it eats a basic, it only has 8 seconds of cooldown. If it eats a Blockhead, it has 20 or so. This may help with its viability in levels with higher density and less hp zombies
The biggest spit in the face of chomper is the mere existence of squash who literally does everything chomper does for cheaper, the only thing chomper has that squash doesn't is the fast recharge
Exactly. The short recharge of chomper makes it an amazing insta. Don't get me wrong, squash is good too, but damn chomper's recharge is so low for an insta.
@@blocks4857 it's not meant to be one, but it serves the purpose of being one really well. Being able to kill almost any zombie instantly without having to worry about long cooldowns is great.
Reflourished makes Chomper pretty good though. Like Peanut. That vacuum plant food eating ten zombies is peak, and 12 seconds of nom time is pretty zippy considering RFL is usually not too reliant on spamming ridiculous zombie counts. Brought the hungry boy to BWB as a free stage plant too.
I’ve always loved chomper, mainly bc of my love for carnivorous plants- it sucks hes such a neglected plant but I remember trying to always put a chomper in every level as a kid 😭.
Seeing how far Chomper fell makes me feel so bad genuinely Chomper is one of the best designs in PVZ (imo), and he deserved so much more than what he got, why does he have to suffer with little upgrades and even when he did it was nothing special. Imagine if Chomper's "tuning" in 2021 was his eating time was reduced to 15 seconds, he could eat 3 zombies before chewing, AND he could eat larger targets like he could in PVZ1 (Zomboni, bobsled team, etc.) AND if we want to catch him up to speed, why not ever 30-40 seconds he does a move similar to his plant food, vacuuming up several plants and BLOWING them all down the lane? When the other plants got major buffs, Chomper was left in the composter, biting at every speck of trash hoping it had a chance to live.
I think pvz1 chomper should have had an upgrade like twin sunflower and gatling pea, or like give it the goop from gw1 to slow zombies at range when it wasn't chewing
I do feel sorry for chomper but here's how we can actually improve upon one of its weaknesses. Chomper's reaction time and bite speed seems to have been nerfed a bit in PvZ 2. In the 1st game if you place one on top of a zombie it chomps down instantly but in the sequel it waits a few seconds before actually biting down, allowing the zombie to damage it, which makes it unable to counter zombies like All Stars and newspaper zombies when they enter "methhead tweaking mode" (KoalaPvZ - only peashooters challenge :) ). Increasing its bite speed (and maybe bite damage) helps it deal with tanky zombies that it can't swallow, making it a slightly better niche plant. In my opinion, chomper does better in PvZ 2 because of the 50 sun meta and the sun refund when you shovel it, making it essentially a 75 cost spammable instant. Also the existence of many more slow special zombies like octo and wizard that usually hang around at the back of the horde making them easy targets to pick off kind of gives it a niche. Awesome video! Which plant are you going to do next? I recommend hypno-shroom, another beloved but terrible insta
I’m tired of ppl talking about Chomper like it’s some undertuned plant, my guy is the only insta that recharges fast (and can even be reused in certain situations). Not to mention it can eat an entire vehicle.
Literally the PvZ 1 Speedrun plant and In PvZ 2 and Its Mods, It's so GOOD to shred high hp targets (very satisfying to stall a garg a bit to get most of that bite dps)
I agree. People keep complaining about how it takes forever to fully consume a zombie but they never look at its other aspects. The fact that it has a fast recharge already gives you so much more placement freedom to pick off stray/special zombies ruining your strategy. This cannot be done with other instas like cherry bomb because they are heavily limited by their seed recharge, meaning you need to strategize to get good value out of each use. That consideration does not apply to chomper at all. Chomper should not be compared to slow AoE instas because it serves a completely different function from them
Unfun fact: Chomper did not get any better in the GW games. Except one day. In BFN. It would all be changed. Fun Fact: chomper would receive Buff updates. Congratulations Chomper😔
I think most people have a fundamental misunderstanding of how chomper is used. It is not a large instakill, and not a main attacker. It is a single-target, fast recharge instant, capable of taking out important threats quickly, while other instant plants in the same situation may still be on recharge. It being able to eat a second zombie if left alone is just a bonus.
From all the pvz main games (excluding Heroes because I haven't played it a lot), I really only like Chomper in BFN, which is the game where he feels the most different (doesn't swallow and has a range attack). I hate to feel like this since Chomper is such an iconic plant, not to mention how good his design is
From what I could tell, chopper pretty much being ignore almost ever single time PopCap trying to buff the plant in the first place. Now it feels like chopper its more like a just a plant sitting at the Zen Garden. When Chopper Gemium plant 💀
Yknow, I think Chomper should be given the peavine treatment. Let him share a space with another plant! That way it's at least a little bit more useful... maybe make it so that while Chomper is chewing, the plant he's stuck to would be invulnerable. So Chomper acts kinda like a pumpkin that bites Idk man i jusr feel sorry for the fella
Pvz1 was so easy I used chomper for most of the roof levels to give myself a challenge. Chompers are fun though, just use it as a 5 second recharge insta in pvz2
ok heres how i chage chomper in pvz 2 well make him a part of the ail mint family because he will have a 7.5 seconds to swallow the zombie, after he digested the zombie he lets out a stinky oder and sticky saliva to slow down and poison zombies
Chomper got chomped in the ass. And continued to get punched in the balls for 10 years. Hell, even costing 1$ does not work! Even getting buffed Chomper died out. He gets countered by so many zombies that it's better to try and beat big wave beach with peashooter. I just want to cry for the guy.

its what a pvz1 mod did + increase its range by 1 tile and it became one of the best plants in the mod

Chomper being premium in the sequel is already demanding enough
Chomper is my favorite instant and plant in general. Yes it is an instant which can sometimes be reused.

@@Leefbay Don't forget how PvZ Fusion makes running Chomper-based fusions very worthwhile.
It's not a good instant use plant.
Chomper in PVZ1: F tier
Chomper in PVZ2 before buff: D tier
Chomper in PVZ2 after buff: A tier
Even post buff he would be C tier

0:23 The pitchforks are from the speedrunner communit
Chopper is probably one of my favorite plants alongside that of Cattail, Plantern, Snowpea and Magnet-shroom
As always, love the video. Hope you don't quit soon, I love your content, koala!
they should’ve added a Primal Chomper to JM tbh

Idk man i jusr feel sorry for the fella
I still have my Chomper plushie. I hate that the character I fw the most gets left behind
Chomper is such a good instant plant
Pvz1 was so easy I used chomper for most of the roof levels to give myself a challenge. Chompers are fun though, just use it as a 5 second recharge insta in pvz2
The fact they expected you to be able to beat bwb day 16 with prebuff chomper and bulbs is just dumb.
Chomper is my most favourite plant in pvz1 and 2
such a good video as usual. keep it up
To be honest even in pvz1, chomper can be a pretty good insta solely because it has a fast recharge
2:03 Sometimes it can swallow Diggers from behind. Only remember it happening on I Zombie levels
Okay but I main Chomper in the shooters, so he’s the best plant clearly
You just missed it but pvz3 china came out and chomper is both unlockable and plantable in that game
Is it just me, or does anyone else use torchwood as a kind of semi-insta?
PvZ 1 speedrunners are only chomper users
10:30 I genuinely thought he said pissing damage 💀
Banger video!
ok heres how i chage chomper in pvz 2
well make him a part of the ail mint family because
he will have a 7.5 seconds to swallow the zombie, after he digested the zombie he lets out a stinky oder and sticky saliva to slow down and poison zombies
who also thought that he was gonna release part 2 to the previous vid
"You're good in your own way"
just use plant food on the dang Chomper when he's eating!
I beat every pvz game with chomper on every level
Chomper's buff in PvZ2 definitely made him better, but I still think that he was an overall meh plant
Is it just me or is he speaking with more emotion or expression?😯
a buff i would give to chompers (make hime heal himself after disgusting a zombie and maybe increase he max hp per disgusting)
They turned kiwibeast into a gemeum, why not chomper, kiwibeast is way better than chomper
Because they released Bean Sprout, which is technically an upgrade to Kiwibeast.
@Pitrek1113 we have so many chomper like seedeums. Snap pea, guard schroom etc

"Mopped"? Huh
can you do the history of maybe puff shroom?
