However, Pied Piper's ability will not activate if there are no plants in his lane. {{PvZHLink|Grave Buster}} is also a big counter to this zombie since you will most likely play him as soon as possible, which is very predictable, and the plant hero can simply ignore the gravestone.

Strategies
With
Pied Piper's ability to weaken, and possibly destroy a plant is what makes him handy. It is best to place him on a lane with a plant that has 1, or 3 at most for Pied Piper to destroy it. Also, since the ability decreases stats and affects all plants in that lane, it can basically bypass Team-Up plants to destroy a frail plant behind, or Armored plants since the trait does not prevent stat reduction. If there is a dangerous plant with 1, such as Template:PvZHLink or Mushroom Ringleader, they can be easily destroyed when he is revealed.
However, Pied Piper's ability will not activate if there are no plants in his lane. Template:PvZHLink is also a big counter to this zombie since you will most likely play him as soon as possible, which is very predictable, and the plant hero can simply ignore the gravestone.

Against
There's not much you can do about this zombie early in the game, because he hides in a gravestone. This means you will have to play Grave Buster if you want to destroy him without harm. This is extremely suggested if the plant hero is Spudow, and a gravestone appears in a lane with Shroom for Two or Pair of Pears in it, as a Beastly zombie hero would likely play this in that lane to destroy or weaken them.

Trivia
The last word in his description, "whatevs" is an informal way to say the word whatever.
When he is revealed, he will play a short tune on his pipe. The same applies when reducing stats.
