Barrel Roller Zombie

Not to be confused with the Barrel Zombie from Plants vs. Zombies Adventures.

The Barrel Roller Zombie is a zombie found in the Pirate Seas of Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time. It rolls over plants using its barrel. When the barrel is destroyed, two Imp Pirate Zombies jump into the two adjacent rows, or occasionally the water.

Strategies
Using Spikeweed or Spikerock on the barrel will destroy it, but two Imps will jump out of the barrel. This is a good thing to do, but it is better to kill the zombie with a lobbed-shot plant, such as Cabbage-pult or Kernel-pult. That way, the projectiles hit the zombie and not the barrel. When the zombie is killed before the barrel, the barrel stops moving. Other plants that are good to use along with Lobbed Shots are Bloomerang and Snapdragon, as the boomerangs and fire respectively will pass through the barrel thus hitting the Barrel Roller Zombie. Using Spring Bean also is good, as it throws the barrel into the water, without Imps coming out, though the barrel roller will eat the Spring Bean unless killed quickly.

Trivia

 * If the Barrel Roller zombie meets a Tall-nut or a Wall-nut it will take a little longer to kill them. This trait is shared with Pianist Zombie.
 * If its barrel is destroyed by a Jalapeno, the Imp Pirate Zombies will not come out.
 * If the Barrel Roller Zombie makes it to Your House with his barrel, only the barrel is shown when the screen goes black, and the barrel rolls in place.
