This item is only obtainable during certain events. However, it can still be used if you have already obtained it. It is currently not available.
Unicorn Chomper is a Special variant of Chomper in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2. The Unicorn Chomper was unlocked by importing a player's Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfarecharacters. If the player reached rank 313, the maximum rank in the first game, they would be awarded the Unicorn Chomper sticker pack. The Unicorn Chomper is also given a unique ability: Rainbow Warp, which makes the Unicorn Chomper quickly run forward a short distance, similar to the Scientist's Warp. This is an alternate ability to the normal Burrow ability, exclusively for this variant. His standard attack was revealed in a live stream to be called the Unicorn Chomp. The deadline to obtain this character was February 28, 2017 (excluding Super Mix Modes), and can no longer be obtained.
With his mystic horn and toothy grin, the Unicorn Chomper isn't just the rarest of the rare, he's the coolest of the cool. Impress and dazzle friends and enemies alike!
In-game description
Awarded to only the most dedicated Garden Warfare players, the Unicorn Chomper is beyond rare.
If you're sick of being harassed by Zombies on rooftops, the Chomp Cannon is for you. Hock a loogie in their direction with this disgustingly explosive attack!
The Chomper's ultimate weapon. He has the ability to tunnel underground and ambush unsuspecting Zombies by emerging under their feet and swallowing them whole!
"Transport yourself across short distances with the magical power of rainbows!"
The Unicorn Chomper dashes forwards quickly, similar to the Scientist'sWarp. It is exclusive to the Unicorn Chomper and replaces the Burrow ability. You can stock up to 2 warps.
When a zombie stumbles into a Vampweed, you get a helpful health boost! The zombie isn't hurt, but he probably feels a bit silly falling into your trap.
Strategies
With
Utilize Unicorn Chomper the same way you would with Chomper, due to their stats being the exact same. The key difference between these two, however, is the former's ability to use Rainbow Warp instead of Burrow. This allows for a hit-and-run tactic: warp up to an opponent who is facing away from you, swallow them, and then quickly warp to safety.
Likewise, the two Rainbow Warps can be used for quickly entering or retreating battle.
Against
Similar tactics from Chomper can be applied here. However, be prepared for a Unicorn Chomper to quickly enter the firefight or to retreat from it. The best characters for dealing with Unicorn Chomper are Super Brainz and Captain Deadbeard. Their closeup attacks can deal with a Unicorn Chomper entering the battle with Rainbow Warp and their ranged attacks can deal with one fleeing.
Unicorn Chomper, Z7 Imp, and Twilight Chomper are the only three Special characters. Both cannot be obtained normally through the game, as you must reach rank 313 in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare for Unicorn Chomper, pre-order Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 (or buy the Deluxe Edition of the game) for the Z7 Imp and buy the Midnight Snack Upgrade for Twilight Chomper.
They appear in Graveyard Ops in the special wave "Mystic Mayhem."
Creative Director Justin Wiebe mentioned on Twitter that there are currently no plans to either extend the character's deadline or make him available for purchase.
While Unicorn Chomper is currently unobtainable after the deadline, his bobblehead stand can still be seen in the stats room.
He is still playable in certain Mystery Portal events, allowing those who did not reach max rank in Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare to level him up and reach the final rank of 5455.
His deadline was in the month of February, which was when Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare and Plants vs. Zombies: Garden Warfare 2 were released.
