With
This card is pretty mediocre for its cost. However, since it can give the player a Banana Bomb at the start of each turn, which allows you to deal 2 damage to a zombie, this can be used to control the opponent's early game. However, it has no base strength, so giving some via Grow-Shroom, Spineapple, or Berry Angry will allow it to defend itself well.

Since this adds a trick to your hand, Captain Combustible can use this in conjunction with Bananasaurus Rex, where it will boost itself every time Banana Launcher adds a Banana Bomb to your hand, and Re-Peat Moss, where it will do a bonus attack every time Banana Bomb is played. Captain Combustible also has much more efficient ways to boost Banana Launcher, such as Fertilize.

The best use of this is against heroes as due to most Crazy zombies having low health, the Banana Bombs will easily clean up those zombies. Possibly the best hero to use this against is Impfinity, as almost all his dangerous zombies can be easily destroyed with Banana Bombs. A few examples of such zombies are Stealthy Imp and Cuckoo Zombie.

Against
Stat-wise, this plant is no threat at all. However, it could potentially ruin your early game by allowing the plant hero to damage and possibly finish them off with the Banana Bombs given. If that is what you fear, you can simply use Rolling Stone or Weed Spray to destroy this plant.

In late game, this plant will be almost no threat as the trick it gives will not deal much damage to your zombies. However, be on the lookout for Bananasaurus Rex and Re-Peat Moss.

You can also play Knight of the Living Dead or Shielded zombies since they are immune to the Banana Bomb.

Trivia

 * This and Banana Bomb are the only banana cards in the Kabloom class.
 * When it attacks, it appears to use its Plant Food effect from Plants vs. Zombies 2, before launching mashed bananas at the zombie or zombie hero.
