Plants can win the final mini game of Zombopolis. It is hard, but with character selection, it can be done easily.
As peashooter, it is a suicide mission to destroy the battery, do it about 3x.
Drop a chili bomb in front of the battery, then, immediately switch to pea gatling.
You will die but at the cost of reduced battery life for the robot.
You need to do this about 3 to 4 times. Less if there are more peashooters that knows this trick. Your vanquish number
likely will not increase because the focus and goal is to turn that battery off and expose the shooting/hit points of that
robot.
When I play as a different character and if we get to reach the final mini game, I always switch to peashooter for Zombopolis.
Give it a try.
Joe is absoplutely right. With a Sombrero Bomb, Agility Jumping and one well placed pea gatling (Sliding off of the upper catwalk above the battery down to the bridge just in front of the fuse on the Robots back while using the Gatling so I'm rooted and ready to fire as soon as I land is what I do)
It won't win everytime, if every life is spent doing this particular Peashooter run, you'll be able to destroy the battery about twice before there's 20 seconds left.
Don't forget also that there are spots you can hit the battery from outside the room the battery is in. Like the right side teleporter takes you to a small room where if you pan your view just right, you can shoot the battery from within that very room it teleports you to.
A big trick for the final stage of zombopolis is finding the places from which you can attack the battery besides the obvious. There are several clever spots to root and gatling. I suggest to go and run a private game with empty teams, take the first five points, and then spend the 5 minutes or whatever it is you get exploring the zomboss area, looking for alternative spots from which to attack the battery and the robot. You should have enough time to go through two cycles of this if you manage to destroy the battery in a reasonable amount of time.
- The Plants can win on the Zombopolis map but it really does take a team effort; in addition to the other suggestions and tactics mentioned it's important for the team as a whole to put pressure on the Battery Room and destroying the exposed Fuses- if a good portion of the Plants are not playing the objective and are instead out for personal glory by raising their vanquish count or just messing around then it's nearly impossible to win.
This one has been changed at least twice as it was super easy at first and then extremely difficult, it's closer to the middle at this time but can be rough as plants.
A lot of good advice here and I find Kernel Corn and Peashooters to be the best for hitting the battery hard. The arms are the hardest fuses to get down since the bot moves his arms a lot. Defending this is a mixed bag since the zombies have to defeat the plants before they inflict massive damage on the battery and then defend the bot once the battery is down.
I've actually had a more difficult time in private matches with bots since the AI zombies focus on defending while many actual players focus on vanquish farming so plants can get around the back and pound that battery while zombies are too far forward.
