“石头剪刀布?那是什么新的决斗方式么?”对于凤梨链刃而言，身边的一切都是那么无趣，唱歌，跳舞，打僵尸?那些都是庸俗的植物干的事情。他所追求的是酣畅淋漓的战斗。“嘿!你!对，就那个两个拳头的白菜!我们来打上一架!”但他不知道的是，他所挑衅到的植物可并不只有他眼前那颗白菜，还有他手下的徒弟们。若他们围而攻之，想来他必败。不过，最终这场战斗却是以平手而告终，毕竟花园讲究以和为贵，不提倡搞窝里斗。 "Rock, Paper Scissors? Is that a new combat method?" Bromel Blade finds everything around him to be so boring. Singing, dancing, fighting zombies? Those are all tacky plant business. What he's looking for is an honest, heartfelt duel. "Hey you! Yes, the punching bok choy! Let's have a duel! But what he didn't know was that the plant he challenged was not just the bok choy, but also his cohorts. If they took to surrounding him, he would've surely lost. In the end however, the duel ended in a tie. After all, the garden is more focused on maintaining peace, and doesn't want to promote in-fighting.

Bromel Blade (凤梨链刃: fènglí liàn rèn) is a melee plant in the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2 first introduced in the 2.5.6 update.

When a zombie approaches, the plant will take out his chain blade and attack all zombies within two tiles. The greater the zombie's size, the more damage they take.

After attacking with his chain blade three times, he will spread out the chain and stab, damaging zombies in the entire lane. After doing the stab attack he will be lifted up and will smash himself down.

Origins

Bromel Blade is based on the flaming sword (Vriesea splendens), a species of flowering plants native to Trinidad, eastern Venezuela and the Guianas.

His name "Bromel Blade" comes from the family Bromeliaceae, a tropical family of monocots consisting of plants such as the pineapple and the flaming sword.

The line "After all, the garden is more focused on maintaining peace, and doesn't want to promote in-fighting" in his almanac refers to a saying by Ma Baoguo, a Chinese trickster who offered fake kung-fu classes and was made fun of by Chinese netizens.

Strategies

Bromel Blade is a good choice to attack tougher zombies, such as Octo Zombies. Also, his chain will deal greater damage to zombies of larger sizes, like Gargantuar, Robo-cone Zombie, Disco-tron 3000, and more. His final attack is also powerful against immobile zombies, such as Imp Cannon, Zombie King, Fisherman Zombie, and Zcorpion Zombie.

You must be careful against Chicken Wrangler Zombie and Weasel Hoarder, since they can release an ambush of animals after being damaged by Bromel Blade, both during his main attack and final attack. However, if you plant Sweet Potato or Hot Date nearby, any ambush animals will be attracted and get killed instantly.
