I just want to outline the strong ones that don't die really fast like Newspaper Zombie or something.) Personally speaking, Zomboni SHOULD come back in this game. Not because it's my favorite zombie out of all franchise but it's a bit challenging to take this guy out with same attributes albeit Iceberg's PF could slow it down instead of freezing it completely. Ice trails should last longer that it should be.

Digger: This guy was underestimated in the first game because in the four levels he could appear in he only appeared once or twice. So he was looked down upon, but when you go into Survival Endless you see digger group after digger group after digger group coming in, eating the back plants really fast. You can't stop him without spending a seed slot on Magnet Shroom or using an insta-kill. And in this game you don't even have Pumpkin.

Pogo: He's essentially a significantly faster jetpack that can't be blown away by Blover. That makes him quite formidable.

Zomboni: Okay, first he's immune to WM's chill effect as well as Iceberg Lettuce PF (well, he should be). Then, he insta-kills all plants. Then, his main counter Jalapeno is an IAP and not used much anyways. Spikeweed is pretty much not used, and Spikerock was nerfed to only take three instead of nine, so you will need to plant three times as many spikerocks. Fortunately in this game was have BL and CC to take him down, but still he is a force to be reckoned with (if he is added), especially for the players who try to beat him with up-to-AE-Day-8 plants.

Football zombie also poses a large threat.

Some others like Jack-In-The-Box (pair him with Breakdancer or something) could also pose a threat, while most others (screen door dies to WM, newspaper dies to WM, ladder dies to WM) aren't very strong. But hey, Snorkel Zombie returned, died to WM, but we accepted him, so there's no reason not to include a few other underpowered zombies. They can't all be OP, can they?
