I think chomper is one of the worst characters in the game. His hit registration on his chomp is bad, his slobber shot needs you to be pin point accurate and even then it might not register damage, his spikeweeds never go where you want them too, his burrow half the time doesnt work. The only thing that's good is his goop in my opinion. I want him to get buffed and fixed but I dont think that will happen.
I find that Chomper is a bit of a hit and miss character. There are specific things that he is suited for. He excels in close-range combat. He does lots of damage up close. He can vanquish a zombie in seconds, or immediately if he uses Burrow upon them. He is fine at long range, but not greatly effective. His Slobber Shot can deal a lot of damage, but fires significantly slowly. Most other plants’ DPS at range are higher, maybe even Snapdragon’s Flare Ball. His Spikeweeds and Grody Goop can also be fired at range, but can only be used occasionally and can be hard to use.
My point? Chomper is really effective when in close combat with Zombies, but his options are much more limited from range.
