Card description[]
A walrus seemed the obvious choice. After all, horses don't go on land *and* water.
Walrus Rider can be considered to be a more expensive version of Stealthy Imp, trading 2 additional brains and the lack of the Gravestone trait for 1 more strength, 2 more health, and Amphibious. You will most likely find Walrus Rider's Amphibious trait to be a key point when choosing one over the other, as Walrus Rider's increased health is more or less negated by its lack of protection against tricks, and both of the cards have poor stats for their cost anyway.
Unfortunately, Walrud Rider has poor stats, even with Anti-hero, although he can be used if you have nothing else.
Using this against Solar Flare, Chompzilla, or Captain Combustible can lead to an easy win, due to their lack of Amphibious plants and its resistance of a Berry Blast, Although there is a good chance they have Sizzle, who can trade against him for 2 less mana, aside from Chompzilla. You just need to watch out of Squash though, which 2 out of the mentioned 3 heroes have. However, by having Parasol Zombie (as Super Brainz or Huge-Gigantacus), she would make him immune to tricks.
As a pet zombie, Walrus Rider can also find a place in Brain Freeze's pet deck, providing synergies with Cat Lady and Zookeeper, although he is outclassed by Mondo Bronto if you have him. Additionally, Walrus Rider is classified as an Imp, which can synergize with Imp Commander and Toxic Waste Imp.
Against[]
If you are facing against Walrus Rider on the aquatic lane, Sweet Potato or Whipvine can use their abilities to move Walrus Rider into another lane, removing him from the aquatic lane and blocking one attack. Banana Peel is also a better option. This is useful if you are Chompzilla or Captain Combustible since they lack Amphibious fighters.
It is recommended to try and destroy this zombie quickly after, as Sneaky heroes have access to Smoke Bomb to move Walrus Rider back to the aquatic lane, while Super Brainz can play Carried Away to move Walrus Rider back to the aquatic lane and do heavy damage to your hero.
Additionally, using Squash, Whack-a-Zombie (only if Walrus Rider is facing a plant on its lane), or Sizzle can deal with Walrus Rider easily. You can also use Cherry Bomb if there are other zombies nearby.
Due to its Anti-Hero 3 trait, you can easily remove it with Shamrocket or Doom-Shroom, provided you are playing as a Guardian hero.
