Banana Split has average stats for a 4{{PvZH Icon|sun}} plant, with 4{{PvZH Icon|strength}}/4{{PvZH Icon|health}}. However, its ability can be useful for blocking dangerous threats next door,except the aquatic lane. If there are two strong zombies in adjacent lanes, you can play Banana Split in front of the first strong zombie and let it get destroyed before the fight phase, Half-Bananas can be made so you can block those attacks. In general, you can treat it as Barrel Roller Zombie, but with better stats but the lack of any traits.

[[Captain Combustible]] can also use this plant to activate [[Astro-Shroom]]'s ability three times in a similar fashion to Muscle Sprout, doing 3 unblockable damage to his opponent.

Just note that unlike the [[Swabbie]]s made from Barrel Roller Zombie, the Half-Bananas made by Banana Split's ability do not have the '''[[Card#Amphibious|Amphibious]]''' trait, so you cannot block an attack from a strong zombie on the aquatic lane.
You can also use Banana Split's ability to boost [[Muscle Sprout]], although it requires spacing.

You can treat Banana Split as a stronger plant version of Barrel Roller Zombie, as it makes Half-Bananas next door when destroyed. While both Banana Split andthe Half-Bananas have strong stats, theydo not have '''Amphibious''' or {{PvZH Icon|deadly}}'''[[Card#Deadly|Deadly]]''' like Barrel Roller Zombie. However, you need to be careful when your opponent plays this as it can block powerful attacks from yourstrongzombiesonadjacentlanes,protectingyouropponent for atleastone turn.

While Banana Split has decent stats, it does not have the {{PvZH Icon|deadly}}'''[[Card#Deadly|Deadly]]''' trait like Barrel Roller Zombie. Still, you need to be careful when your opponent plays this as it can block powerful attacks from up to three (one for Banana Split itself and two for the Half-Bananas next turn) of your strong zombies.

If you want to destroy it instantly, [[Cakesplosion]] or [[Rocket Science]] is enough to destroy Banana Split, although it will still make Half-Bananas next door.

Strategies
With
Banana Split has average stats for a 4 plant, with 4/4. However, its ability can be useful for blocking dangerous threats next door (minus the aquatic lane). If there are two strong zombies on adjacent lanes, you can play Banana Split in front of the first strong zombie and let it get destroyed. In general, you can treat it as Barrel Roller Zombie, but with better stats and the lack of any traits.
You can also use Banana Split's ability to boost Muscle Sprout, although it requires spacing. The Half-Bananas made when the Banana Split is destroyed count as playing plants, therefore playing Banana Split and letting it be destroyed gives Muscle Sprout +3/+3. Captain Combustible can also use this plant to activate Astro-Shroom's ability three times in a similar fashion to Muscle Sprout, doing 3 unblockable damage to his opponent.
Against
While Banana Split has decent stats, it does not have the Deadly trait like Barrel Roller Zombie. Still, you need to be careful when your opponent plays this as it can block powerful attacks from up to three (one for Banana Split itself and two for the Half-Bananas next turn) of your strong zombies.
