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. 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. 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 a Banana Split and letting it be destroyed boosts Muscle Sprout three times. Captain Combustible can also use this plant to activate Astro-Shroom's ability three times in a similar fashion to Muscle Sprout, doing 3 damage to his opponent.
Against
While Banana Split has strong stats, it does not have or Deadly like Barrel Roller Zombie. However, you need to be careful when your opponent plays this as it can block powerful attacks from your strong zombies on adjacent lanes, protecting your opponent for at least one turn.
