Ideas for imp variants

C.H.imp and Z Mech variant, maybe make it a melee mech with a charge ability, damaging plants in its path and a grab ability allowing the mech to

A- begin pummeling the held plant until 1) plant is vanquished, 2) mech is vanquished, 3) mech is stunned, or 4) mech takes massive damage at once (50(?) or more damage) or

B- throw the held plant as a projectile at another plant causing the thrown plant to take damage as well as the plant hit by the throw

What are your ideas?

  • How about a metal imp with 75 to remove all the others imps lifes back to 50 because this update tought us what a 25 life difference can do to a small powerful character.

    Let's have an imp variant called oops i did it again ..imp

    He wears a dress has blonde hair and his mech is a giant robotic Britney Spears that shoots pink lazors out of its eyes.

    Another idea I had for a varient was to call down a giant EA logo and when it's called it says " we have no idea how to balance this character" it has 5000 hp, homing shots that one shot players, and it can also call down a nuke the size of the map that it is on that instantly ends the game, giving the win to the zombies.

    Idk what do you guys think? Plants might need some buffs to compensate though.
  • I am just trying to throw some ideas out there that would provide some gameplay that's a bit different from what is already available.

    I have seen in game that there is an imp called S.H.R.imp and I thought it would also fit to have one called C.H.imp. I suggested abilities that I thought made some sort of sense for a chimp. Unless popcap would be ok with a mech flinging feces?

    Do you not have any legitimate ideas for imp variants?
  • IMP-ossible: Secret agent styled Imp with stealthy 'mech.

    There's a billion Imp puns we can make here!

  • Bandit Imp is the second legendary character in the Imp class. For his appearance, he wears his bull rider's outfit (from PvZ2) with a black bandana on his eyes and red bandana on his mouth. He wields his dual precision laser revolver pistols (which makes 12 shots per capacity) that deals heavy damage and his laser bolt velocity was extremely high. "Well-schemed Raid" is his passive ability. If he fills his bar by vanquishing enough plants, he gains movement speed boost and his weapon sets to automatic and reload delay has decreased.

    His Z-Mech resembles the Zombot War Wagon (from Pvz2) with two arms. It was armed with twin gatling laser blasters and missile pods. Its primary weapon may takes time to fire which deals less powerful damage but rate of fire has decreased. His Z-Mech can target an area and then launches missile upward to the sky which could perform an orbital strike. It can prepare to charge up its speed and power and then rams plants sending them flying.

    I have some ideas. First, I have the Ugly Cluckling, which is an Imp wearing a chicken suit, and he has Feather Blasters which are rapid-fire and go through multiple enemies. When he calls in his Mech, it lands on top of it, like S.H.R.Imp, and when he ejects from it, he gets shot out from the Mech's bottom, like he is an egg. The Mech has two large robotic chicken legs and a control station for the Imp in the middle.. The Mech has explosive Yolk Impactors which can leave Plants unable to use their abilities. The Mech has two abilities; 1) Whirlwind, which makes the Mech spin its legs like a tornado, which suck in and deal damage to Plants, and 2) Cluck Jump, which makes the Mech jump in the air and hover for a few seconds before coming back down and dealing damage to Plants near it.

    Another idea is the Winter Giggler, which is an Imp dressed like a snowman, and is the ice variant of the Imp. His Mech resembles a giant snowman whose two abilities are; 1) Snowball Flurry, which makes the Mech shoot out rapid-fire damaging snowballs, and 2) Frost Wave, which makes the Mech slam the ground and create a large icy wave, which instantly freezes nearby Plants.

    A third idea is the Lil' Driller. He is a miner-themed Imp who has slow firing but does large damage with his Drill Diggers. His Mech moves around on one giant drill on its bottom, and has two long robotic arms, and the Mech shoots one large bomb at a time which explodes after a few seconds using his Big Bomb Blaster. His two unique abilities are; 1) Dirty Dig, which allows the Mech to drill and move underground, and when it is below a Plant it can emerge and deal heavy damage to the Plant, and 2) Pickaxe Toss, which makes the Mech throw pickaxes that act like boomerangs, which come back to the Mech after a short period of time, dealing double damage to Plants.

  • Possibilities are endless since you can combine any imaginable profession and ability or technology, from any era.

    I would like to see a "cook" imp, something based on a "chef " model where you shot ingredients/food or knives. The Mech could be homemade from vegetables,fruits and kitchen items (similar to the plants mech from infinity).  😉
