Doom-shroom (Spawnable)


 * For the version in other games, see Doom-shroom.

Doom-shroom is a Spawnable Plant in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare. He was first added in the Garden Variety DLC update. It can be obtained from sticker packs. When zombies approach it, it use its attack, Doom: an extremely powerful gigantic explosion that deals 200 damage. However, the drawback to this is that the Doom-shroom will then be vulnerable for about 30 seconds.

Description
Doom-shrooms are extremely damaging but take time to regenerate.

Health
A Doom-shroom has 100 health.

Strategies
This is best planted near the garden because zombies will come to the garden and they will most likely be in range for the Doom-shroom to explode if it is planted there. Although this is damaging, it can't take out Barrel Pirates, Coffin Zombies, or Outhouse Zombies in an instant. It also needs time to recharge, so after it explodes, keep an eye on it as it will be vulnerable for about 30 seconds. Another downside is that it can still be hit, even when it is hovering in the air and about to explode.

Trivia

 * After attacking, the Doom-shroom hides in its pot, similar to how the Ice-shroom looks like when it is vanquished.
 * Unlike in Plants vs. Zombies, the Doom-shroom does not leave behind a crater or destroy its flower pot when detonating.
 * Also in Plants vs. Zombies, the Doom-shroom explodes on the ground, while in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare, the Doom-shroom hovers and explodes in mid-air then hides in its pot.
 * So far, this and Ice-shroom are the only consumables with Christmas costumes.
 * In the case of Doom-shroom, it has deer antlers and a red nose, known as Cariboom.
 * It is a reference to the animal caribou.
 * It levitates before exploding.
 * Unlike the first game, it does not disappear upon detonation.
