He used to hang 10 with the best of them, but ever since he lost that toe to a shark he hasn't been able to hang more than 9.

Strategies
With
This zombie is relatively glassy for his cost. However, due to his Amphibious trait, he can be used to attack the aquatic lane, especially if the plant hero has yet to or is unable to set up their aquatic defenses. Even if they have Amphibious plants, Surfer Zombie will be able to smash through most of them and strike your opponent thanks to his Frenzy trait. It also lets him synergize with Ancient Vimpire.
The Smash can use him with Team Mascot to boost his stats or Zombie Coach to protect him from all damage for that turn due to him being a sports zombie.
Against
Although he hits hard statwise, he can be easily destroyed by a plant that does at least 3 damage or a simple Berry Blast unless he is shielded or has had his health boosted. If that happens, use instant-kill cards such as Toadstool (if he is played outside the aquatic lane), Shamrocket, or Squash.
When he is given the Overshoot trait, an animation similar to his "When destroyed" animation is played. The same applies to Imposter. Since the animation played for Overshoot is a card's ability animation, this could mean that he used to have an ability that was later scrapped.
