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 can destroy them due to his high stats. The biggest weakness of Surfer Zombie is his high cost and inflexibility. Unless you're running sports deck with Team Mascot and Zombie Coach, Snorkel Zombie is way better than Surfer Zombie to deal damage due to its better stat-to-cost ratio.

Against

Although he hits hard stat-wise, 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 Transmogrify, Shamrocket, or Squash.

Trivia

• 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.
