==Strategies==
=== With ===
Olive Pit is a cheap way to weaken zombies and also protect a plant. Due to his fairly high health, not many zombies in turn 1 or 2 will be able to destroy him. His ability can be quite useful at controlling your opponent's zombies, as even if a trade is not positive for the plant player, the zombie will recieve a debuff, making it easier to handle. Other benefits are that he can make zombies charge the for little damage, and even render them useless if their is lowered down to 0, this both scenarios are highly advantageous, as the Plant Hero will be able to get more superpowers with little punishment, or zombies will end up clogging lanes once their strength has been removed entirely.
As of synergies, Olive Pit can work fairly well in a deck with any hero, where it can gain many Strength boosts while also debuffing threatening zombies. With , he can work amazing with splash damaging cards such as and . , and will greatly benefit from Olive Pit while playing as , as more zombies will be in their destroying range, and with and , can be used to make him a solid fighter.
=== Against ===
Olive Pit isn't a huge threat if left alone, however, his ability can easily punish you for having strong zombies in play. Your best option is to use small removals to defeat him, as very little zombies are capable of destrying him in one attack. As and , can be used directly in turn 1 to easily get rid of him, other heroes have access to , heroes can use and to remove him, while and players can use Bounce and removal cards respectively.
 heroes should be careful, as their share of bonus attack cards can be greatly affected by Olive Pit, and they have no removal options against him. However, since every hero leads 2 classes, there is not much problem with this.
