Chinese English 大力花菜曾经梦想着成为一位超级英雄，就像他经常看的漫画中的那些英雄一样。为此他拒绝了可爱的番茄妹妹的告白，参加了学校的柔道社，上学在学校苦练功夫，放学去学校背后的小巷子里匡扶正义……终于有一天，他收到了学校的留级通知书。 Aggro Brocco once dreamed of becoming a superhero, just like the ones he saw in the comic books he read. For this he rejected the confession of love from the cute Tomato-chan, joined the judo club at his school, and went to the alley behind the school to execute his justice after school... Until finally, he received his retention letter.

Aggro Brocco (大力花菜; pinyin: dàlì huācài) was a plant in Plants vs. Zombies: Journey to the West. He picked up zombies using a suplex when they got close and threw them onto the ground a few squares in front of him. He then has to recharge.

His special attack is where he throws a zombie off-screen after his suplex. Unlike plants like Blover, this attack does not instantly kill the zombie: it instead returns back into the lawn after ten seconds.

Origins

Aggro Brocco is based on the plant of the same name in the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2.

His appearance is based on cauliflower, an annual plant that reproduces by seed and 1 of several vegetable cultivars of the wild cabbage (Brassica oleracea) in the genus Brassica, which is in the family Brassicaceae.

Strategies

Aggro Brocco is an excellent plant for the early-game, despite his high cost and remarkably slow recharge for a stalling plant. His ability to grab zombies, deal damage, and then throw them a few squares back puts the zombie in an infinite loop in which they are incapable of attacking until the zombie is killed. The recharge time that occurs after attacking isn't an issue here: the time it takes for the zombie to reach Aggro Brocco again after being attacked matches the recharge.

However, due to Aggro Brocco being able to attack only one zombie at a time, he fares poorly against swarms and will likely be eaten. If keeping Aggro Brocco on the field is still desired for some reason, it is recommended to pair him with plants that can attack multiple zombies, such as Laser Bean.
