Description
Garden Warfare 2
Forks up! It's lunchtime in the lab with Chomper vs Scientist in this week's Super Mix Event. Snack on Scientist to chomp your way to victory. Or deal it and heal it as Scientist to save your allies from the Chompocalypse.
Battle for Neighborville
Scientists are about to map the Chomper's digestive tract in Lunchtime at the Lab! Who'll triumph? Lack-of-brainz or burrowing brawn?
Weekly challenges (Battle for Neighborville)
The weekly challenges for this event are as follows:
- Win a match (1x)
- Get vanquishes (30x)
- TBA
Strategies
The only available classes are Chomper and Scientist, close-ranged specialists. So, getting up close is key, as minimal damage can be dealt at a range. With this in mind, it's very easy to retreat from a bad situation, using either Burrow or Warp, and hide far away while regenerating your health.
