Epic

Pumpkin

Frontline Tank • Shield Thrower

Pumpkin is the first true tank your farm can access. Its thick rind and steady knockback keep brainrots stalled, buying time for ranged carries to clear waves.

Staggers enemies so backline plants can connect.

Ability Breakdown

  • Reliable shield

    Pumpkin’s health pool lets it absorb hits that would normally break through your early defensive line.

  • Crowd control setup

    Each swing nudges brainrots backwards, funneling them into choke points where splash damage excels.

  • Easy to mutate

    Because it is an epic plant, Pumpkin grows with higher mutation odds—chasing Diamond or Frozen rolls dramatically increases survivability.

Acquisition & Growth

  • Appears in the regular shop rotation alongside other epics—stockpiling $5k before each refresh is key.
  • Consider purchasing one with Robux if your lanes crumble during boss waves.
  • Keep an eye on size rolls; larger Pumpkins cover more tiles and absorb stray hits.

Upgrade Checklist

  • Place Pumpkin in front of high-value ranged plants like Dragon Fruit or Watermelon.
  • Focus early upgrades on health and damage reduction rather than raw damage.
  • Swap Pumpkins between lanes depending on where elite brainrots spawn.

Team Synergy Ideas

  • Sunflower: supplies consistent income to chase higher-tier Pumpkins or mutation rerolls.
  • Watermelon: splash volleys hit the grouped targets Pumpkin corrals.
  • Eggplant: stuns prolong the control window created by Pumpkin’s knockback.

Don’t over-stack Pumpkins—one per lane is enough when combined with splash DPS.

Frozen mutations are especially potent, as they stack slow effects on top of Pumpkin’s knockback.
