Note: The statistics shown below only apply to Level 1 Tamarammer.
== Overview ==
Tamarammer acts like your usual plant, attacking high amounts of damage in a small range. However, Tamarammer has some things that is different to other melee plants. It's first change is the fact that he attacks slower than most melee plants for a high amount of damage per attack. The second change is it's new ability that defines the plant, that it pushes itself and the plants in-front of it forward to attack zombies. This can create more space for planting as well as other things, like making your plants more prone to being eaten by zombies, etc. Tamarammer will not push plants forward if the plant it pushes goes off the lawn.
In , Tamarammer will have a chance to push zombies back as well when it starts attacking zombies.
== Upgrades ==
=== Plant Food effect ===
When fed Plant Food, Tamarammer will attack zombies very quickly in a 5x5 area, dealing huge damage to all zombies effected. However, it also instantly-kills all and in the radius.
=== Enforce-mint effect ===
When boosted by Enforce-mint, Tamarammer now deals more damage as well as attack quicker. It also heightens the chance of Tamarammer pushing zombies back as well.
== Strategies ==
=== Plants vs. Zombies ===
Tamarammer is one of the more strategy-orientated plants in the game, as while it can attack zombies from up to three tiles away, it has to push plants forward to be able to attack these zombies, leading to more space being opened up. Tamarammer also doesn't have the best recharge, as you have to wait 30 seconds to be able to plant another Tamarammer in the lawn, so keep that in mind.
Tamarammer's ability is quite good in certain situations, not that good for others. and are the main weakness of Tamarammer, due to them potentially being able to crush plants earlier, opening up your attack and maybe even leading to your brains getting eaten. Tamarammer can also wake up sleeping plants like , so you can use it to trigger off and explosions at a certain time.
Tamarammer is not recommended in levels due to it being able to open up your defensive end more, leading to your defensive plants being crushed to zombies like .
=== Plants vs. Zombies 2 ===
Tamarammer, unlike its appearance in , is commonly used more as a tool to make plants do certain things at a certain time, like making attack by itself, and allow to trigger earlier. Still use Tamarammer wisely, as it can still open up your defense.
