Card description
It's a growth industry.

Strategies
This is a good zombie to start your game with, as it only costs 1 brain to use, and has decent stats, especially when placed on heights.

Whenever you get this zombie into your deck, try to place it on heights, as this will give it a small stat boost. As minor as the boost may appear to be, it can sometimes decide if the Chimney Sweep survives more than one plant attack or if it is strong enough to take out more than one plant.

Counters
If the player deploys this zombie, Cabbage-Pult is an excellent choice to deal with it quickly, as Cabbage-Pult will also get a boost if it is, like Chimney Sweep, placed onto heights, making it stronger. Some cheap plants will not be able to defeat this zombie decisively if it is placed on the roof, as it will have 2 health. Using a plant that has more than 2 attack should be used. An example is the aforementioned Cabbage-Pult or Bonk Choy. Alternatively, the player can use a Trick if they want to get rid of it.

Trivia

 * Its description is a reference to the fact that, in the Victorian era, children were used to clean rich people's chimneys. If the child grew too big, that child would be fired and their job would be handed over to another smaller child.
 * When Chimney Sweep is summoned, one can hear it coughing.
 * The player can also hear it coughing when it attacks.
 * It is the zombie counterpart to Cabbage-Pult.
