Spider Queen Imp

Spider Queen Imp is a somewhat-Zombie in Plants vs. Zombies 2, encountered in Penny's Pursuit, Arena, Piñata Parties, and Far Future/Modern Day expansion levels, creeping around like a crawly creeper. This hairy lady doesn't really walk as much as it crawls onto your lawn. Creepy crawler indeed. She behaves as normal until she comes within five tiles of a plant, where the web gun on the bottom of the spider will shoot out and pull the aforementioned plant to her. Then, the spider will quickly web it up into a cocoon, where it then splits into several Bug Bot Imps. Every plant splits into at least three Bug Bot Imps; for every thousand extra health that plant had, it splits into another Bug Bot Imp. The imps fly out in Spider Queen Imp's lane and adjacent lanes. Her web gun has a cooldown of 5 seconds between shots.
Additionally, Spider Queen Imp doesn't attack normally in her lane, like your average zombie. When she gets close enough to a plant, she will instead start attacking in both adjacent lanes, slashing them with her front legs. She can't attack plants in her lane this way; she will always cocoon them instead. That's one feisty spider.
==Origins==
Spider Queen Imp is clearly based on spiders. Her appearance and ability come from spiders, because spiders are cool. Her existence is because Bug Bot Imp is called a bug. And spiders are bugs. You get it.
Her four legs come from Bug Bot Imp having four legs as well. Also because it's difficult to draw eight legs.
==Overview==
Spider Queen Imp absorbs 1750 damage. She degrades once at 440 damage, twice at 880 damage, once more at 1320 damage, and is finally destroyed at 1750 damage. She is stunned for 10 seconds by E.M.Peach, just like all other robot zombies.

==Strategies==
Spider Queen Imp is a dangerous zombie. She can easily swarm your lawn with Bug Bot Imps if you use walls often, and do it from a decent range as well. Her primary attack is also very good at helping her clear three lanes at once and block your shots for proceeding zombie forces. The most clear thing to do when she appears is to dig up any wall plants that she could web up quickly, but you can also try to constantly trigger her cooldown for webbing things by planting cheap, low-health plants in front of her consistently so she can't get to your defense. Plants like your sun producers, Puff-shroom, and even your attackers if you have sun to spare do well for this.
Spider Queen Imp has the nasty habit of webbing up instant-use plants that you place in front of her as well, webbing them up and rendering them useless. If you plan to use an instant-use plant on her because you're afraid of her spidery spiderness, be sure to do it in her adjacent lanes, or behind her. You can also give her a plant to web up and then plant the instant-use plant if for some reason you can't do those other things. Or you're very cautious. You're a cautious , yes you are!
If she gets too close to your defense, plants like Hocus Crocus, Levitater, and Thyme Warp (maybe not so much for this one) are good ideas for getting her away and back to the start, since they don't have to be in danger of getting webbed in order to send her back. Plants like Chard Guard and Hurrikale can work well for this purpose also, but they can be webbed if you're careless (which you might be, you careless , you) and, in Chard Guard's case, may require web sacrifices to make work.
Her primary attack can be held off in the same way as before by placing many weaker plants to stall her out, but be wary that if you let her into your defense on accident, she will not be very kind to your other lanes, because she does a LOT of damage with her spidery limbs. Icky, icky. Ew!
==Trivia==
*Her appearance uses sprites from Bug Bot Imp
*Spider Queen Imp was originally going to be called Queen Bot Imp. This was changed because that name sounds dumb.
