Which Zombie class is not OP?

I'm not the kind of player to abuse cheap exploitebale characters, which is the readon why I didn't use Rose in multiplayer before she got nerded (altough I used her in Garden Ops). So, because some lovely people on this lovely forum have made the effort to call every Zombie class OP, I wanted to ask everybody which class I can use without guilt.

EDIT: Dodgyknees deserves a small loan of a million legendary stickers for the right answer.

    Who cares who says what class is OP or not?  Did they buy your game for you?  No, they didn't.   Just enjoy the game and don't worry about what others think about the classes.

    I can understand how you feel, and I have a list of characters I usually play as to avoid any guilt:
    Soldier:
    Pretty much all varients should work. None really stick out as OP.
    Engineer:
    All except AC Perry and maybe electrician.
    Scientist (oh boy):
    Not Marine Biologist, Chemist, and Zoologist. A fun varient that isn't Op and takes skill is the base Scientist. Many overlook him but he is pretty good alternative.
    Allstar:
    I guess Tennis Star, but most Allstar varients are pretty tame.
    Deadbeard:
    Strong guy overall, but Cannon is weakest. I would definately say don't use Captain Sharkbite.
    Imp:
    Base Imp and Shrimp Imp are fine.
    Super Brainz:
    FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS SACRED NO ELECTRO BRAINZ. Other varients are strong due to abilities, so most people feel like Super Brainz is OP.

    These are just my recommendations, and remember a lot of players feel the zombies are Op because they do not know how to counter some classes.

    Seems the big no nos right now are obviously electro brains, Drake imp, pylon imp, and marine biologist,zoologist,chemist,and computer scientist for scientist variants.

    Borderline are all the other superbrains(just using twister is seen by some as op) any scientist even guys like toxic scientist(the scientist hate runs deep here) ac Perry, Roadie z, and electrician, Park Ranger soldier, and tennis star, and probably all the other imps(because if a 2 ft midget can kill me he must be op amirite?).

    For plants basically bbq corn and toxic corn are the two main culprits. Personally I feel guilty with the spray chompers(specifically lightning and fire) and hotrod they all seem op to me when I play them as I just dominate when camping the objective. Same goes for rock pea plasma pea fire pea and agent pea, idk why I don't see more people topping the boards with those dudes.

    Trick question, cuz I don't think any of them are worse than the best plant. Most of the soldiers are average-ish.

    Foot soldier (expect maybe the two nuw variant), engineer (expect Ac perry because lolfreeze) and all-star (expect maybe tennis star) are mostly considered balanced for most people. As for any scientist outside of the top three (aka chemist, zoologist and marine biologist). For the new char it harder to know as mostly that make them OP come from general stats or abilities and not specific variant. But the party variant of those are always a safe bet for something not OP.

    @dae5d42d21b76549

    Pretty much exactly how I think as well.

    I don't mind AC Perry as much, but he's annoying if he's alive long enough. (Though not as annoying as how Frozen Citron was in the Beta. Ironic, right?)

    Agreed with the scientists as well - although I generally don't see as many chemists these days. (Probably because he can't pepper enemies at range - he's still annoying up close though!)

    @Shogunbear

    I think you meant Toxic Pea there. (Which I agree with) Somehow, his splash seems much more broken than it was in GW1. But it's mostly that there are too many players that are infatuated with playing BBQ Corn. If some of the overwhelming Corn spam went Peashooter, maybe the Plants would actually capture things in Herbal Assault.

    You can use whatever class you want my friend.
    I use Imp without any regrets, it's basically not my fault if noobs complainted for more HP because they don't know how to play.

    Just play whatever you want. You can still lose against plants even with a full Op team, because this isn't Tekken, this a teamwork game, the team that teamworks better win.

    100% 🙂


    Anyway if you want a good opinion, you can try the All-Star. This class require very good decision making and you have to manage wells your skills : imp punt, tackle and the dummy.

    You can parry a lots of things with Dummy, and the tackle is just so good.
    Goalie, Cricket, Regular, Gold and Tennis seems pretty solid afaik.
