Foot Soldier is a recurring character within the Plants vs. Zombies franchise. Foot Soldier was first introduced as a playable character in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare and has been usable in every appearance he has made by the player.
Foot Soldier serves as the common foot soldier of Dr. Zomboss' army in the Garden Warfare series, with a "jack of all traits" set of abilities, as well as dealing average damage, having average speed, and average health.
As of Plants vs. Zombies 3, Foot Soldier has appeared in four games.
Foot Soldier has a prominent role in the Garden Warfare series of shooter games, being the basic class for the zombies, simply meant to vanquish opponents and reach the objective compared to the other classes' more specific roles.
His base abilities are the Zombie Stink Cloud, which throws a stink cloud that deals slight damage to plants and blocks out their vision, Rocket Jump, which lets Foot Soldier reach higher spots, and ZPG, which fires out a heavy-damaging ZPG with heavy splash damage. Foot Soldier wears his ZPG launcher at all times.
As with the other playable classes in the Garden Warfare series, he has numerous character variants based on him, each having their own traits which differentiates them from the standard base character.
Foot Soldier Zombie also appears in the turn-based mobile card game Plants vs. Zombies Heroes, as a PremiumUncommon in the Crazy class and the Professional tribe.
Foot Soldier Zombie costs 5, has 3/4 , and lacks any traits. When he is played on Heights, he will deal 3 damage to a selected target, which can either be a Plant or the Plant Hero.
Main article: Foot Soldier (PvZ: BfN)Foot Soldier once again appears in the third-person shooter game Plants vs. Zombies: Battle for Neighborville. He is an Attack class who specializes in attack versatility. His abilities are mostly the same as the Garden Warfare series, though the Super Stink Cloud, which was originally the alternate ability for the Zombie Stink Cloud is now the main ability, lasting 5 more seconds and taking 15 less seconds to recharge compared to its appearance in the Garden Warfare games.
Unlike in the Garden Warfare series, Foot Soldier no longer has any character variants, but instead has a large number of character upgrades, some of which grant abilities to Foot Soldier's primary weapon and abilities.
Strategies[]
With[]
All of the Soldiers have basically one job: vanquish the plants, and they are well-equipped to do this. The primary weapons do a good amount of damage, the stink cloud is good for crowd control, the rocket jump can hep you escape a tricky situation or get to heights where soldier exceeds, and ZPG is an instant-kill for all playable characters except Iron Citron in Iron Mode and Torchwood in leaf sheild. Use your rocket jump to get to the top of a building where most other characters cannot get to and wreak havoc with the your primary weapon. ZPG any rooted plants (sunbeam/Pea Gatling). Throw the stink cloud into gardens or graves getting taken down by the plants. Try to avoid Peashooters because they can use hyper to get to the heights you are on and their splash damage makes surviving against them difficult.
Against[]
As previously said, Soldiers are very well equipped to vanquish plants. Try to attack them from a distance with a sniper or up close as a Peashooter or Chomper who is close ranged. Try to bait the Soldier into using ZPG and attack them while they are aiming because they cannot fight back for that short time. Avoid using rooted abilities because you will most likely get vanquished by a ZPG before you can un-root yourself and escape.
