*The Zombie MOAB has a total health pool of 660 when accounting for Revive. It's 3 delay slower than a [[MOAB (BCS)|MOAB]] for the same price, but the lingering Health makes it suitable as a way to soak damage and apply slow pressure to the opponent. With two of them, Zombie MOAB becomes very hard to take down.

**Its massive health and resistance to removal cards like [[Extreme Heat]] makes it suitable for protecting [[Camo Bloon]]s.

**[[Camo Green Bloon]], [[Camo Lead Bloon]] and [[Camo Regrow Ceramic Bloon]] can be very difficult cards to deal with while Zombie MOAB is on the field.

*Be careful not to pop a Zombie MOAB with [[Revive]] if it has zero delay, or else it will become a fully healthy Bloon again. However, its very long delay usually makes this not too much of a concern.

*Zombie MOAB is the only two-charge Zombie Bloon, making it a great option to stack the board with Bloons with Revive, which can survive things that simply "destroy" a Bloon, notably [[Bloonsday Device (BCS)|Bloonsday Device]] and [[MOAB Eliminator (BCS)|MOAB Eliminator]] become harder to use against it.

*Zombie MOAB gets a lot of value from cards that heal passively such as [[Prince of Darkness (BCS)|Prince Of Darkness]] and [[Necromancer (BCS)|Necromancer]] due to its very long delay and high health allowing it to continually heal without as much risk of being popped.

*Zombie MOAB being two charges makes it the best value per card that you can get out of [[Dart Arts Wizard]], with both charges giving a combined +120 health accounting for Revive.

*Zombie MOAB should be played in Tempo decks that primarily care a bit less about going slower. Faster Tempo decks may consider [[MOAB (BCS)|MOAB]] or [[Damaged MOAB]] instead.

Initially during Version 6.2 playtests, the Zombie MOAB was only given an extra charge, with the design practice of similar MOAB cards like the [[Damaged MOAB]] or normal [[MOAB (BCS)|MOAB]].<ref name="odyssey-6.2-video">{{cite|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTs-Rj9TCVw|title=BCS 6.2 Tester Commentary|publisher=YouTube, Odyssey}}</ref> However, playtesters found it difficult to counter the new Zombie MOABs compared to normal MOABs despite the 7 delay (versus 4).<ref name="odyssey-6.2-video">{{cite|url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oTs-Rj9TCVw|title=BCS 6.2 Tester Commentary|publisher=YouTube, Odyssey}}</ref> A community tester noted that the new health reduction of the Zombie MOAB from 350 to 330 makes [[Dart Arts Wizard]] synergy more necessary, a change that they deem justifiable, since equipping Undead-specific synergy would hurt defensive capability.<ref name="odyssey-6.2-video" />
