However, unlike Sap-fling, Oozewood's can only attack zombies in front of it rather than any zombie on the lawn. When a canister hits a zombie, it will break open and create an Ooze Puddle on that tile. Ooze Puddles do 10 every second to zombies and plants on their tiles. In addition, when an Ooze Puddle is formed and Ooze Tentacle will rise out of it. Ooze Tentacles can be best compared to s. They do 20 dps every 1.5 seconds to the farthest left zombie within their range, which is a 3x3 area of themselves. Ooze Puddles cannot be destroyed in any way. They and the Ooze Tentacles that accompany them will automatically disappear after 10 seconds.
==Origins==
"Oozewood" is a portmanteau of ooze and moosewood. Ooze is defined as soft mud or slime, and for the purpose of this plant, resembles that of from . The ooze's relation to Lawn of Doom comes from oozes and slimes are often depicted in movies as coming from monsters, and how the aforementioned Alien Ooze is a Monster card in Plants vs. Zombies Heroes. Moosewood is a small North American species of maple, which explains Oozewood's tree-like appearance. The fact that the plant attacks with ooze further reinforces the fact that it is made out of it.

==Strategies==
Due to Oozewood's nature of being able to damage plants, it is recommended to plant as few plants as possible in front of it. If anything, using high-health defensive plants is probably the best choice as they not only defend the Oozewood, allowing it to survive for longer, but also have enough health to withstand its puddles should it come to that. is probably the best choice, as its health regeneration will counter the Ooze wood's damaging and it will not be completely destroyed.
Be aware that Oozewood will not function well in , as most of the tiles are usually flooded and do not allow ooze tiles to be created on them.
