Strategies
Mountain Climber is a zombie which behaves similarly like Drum Major that exchanges placement flexibility for the Bullseye trait. While the sacrifice is certainly considerable, Mountain Climber's lack of the Dancing tribe makes it a strictly worse choice in Professor Brainstorm decks, as it does not benefits from the effects of Aerobics Instructor and Flamenco Zombie like Drum Major does.

Because it has the Sports tribe, it is useful in Rustbolt decks, and is able to be boosted by zombies such as Team Mascot and Zombie Coach.

Counters
Plants such as Cabbage-Pult and Skyshooter are the most ideal plants to use here, as they are cheap and also gain stats on the roof. Using tricks can also help with defeating this zombie. Beware this zombie's Bullseye ability, as it will not fill the Plant Hero's gauge meter.

Trivia

 * The flag it holds resembles the flag held by the Flag Zombie.
 * Its description references Mount Everest, the world's tallest mountain fully above water.
 * Its description also references K2, which is the world's second tallest mountain.
 * Its description also mentions "the player's house," referencing to the fact that in the first game, zombies climbed up to the roof to invade the player's house.
