Smasher

Summary
The Smasher is a powerful zombie found within ZAPT:R. Whenever he sees a Survivor, he will charge at them at high speeds. If the Smasher collides into a Survivor while performing its charge attack, the Survivor will be knocked some distance into the air while considerable damage will be dealt to them. Smashers will also attack by punching rather than clawing.

Player controlled Smashers, when performing the charge ability, will be unable to stop, and will continuously charge until they are killed. While charging, player controlled Smashers can steer in which direction they wish to go in, and can jump. However, the charge ability slowly drains their stamina, and will often need to stop for short breaks in order to start running again. Bot Smashers will charge in a straight line, unable to move or change direction. After about 5 seconds of charging, the Smasher will stop and will resume chasing the Survivors as normal. When charging, all of the Smasher's light green skin parts will turn a bright red.

Background Story
Survivors would always take caution whenever they pass through areas with high ledges of have dangerous obstacles lying beneath their current position. Why is that? All of the blame can be put forth to this zombie. The Smasher would always hide in the shadows, then come out and bowl through a Survivor line, knocking several away to be killed by the horde, while the others would be left at the mercy of the Smasher itself.

Bad masturbation jokes aside, some theorize that the Smasher was originally a country farmer before becoming infected. Where and how the Survivors came up with these theories is baffling, and almost no evidence has surfaced to support these claims. However, one thing's clear. This guy was definitely... active, in some way or the other.

Survivors

 * High powered weapons, such as the M16, Auto Shotgun, and Military Rifle are the best ways to deal with a Smasher, as the Smasher is pretty hefty zombie.
 * Smashers have a tendency to attack with hordes. As such, they will often begin their charge attacks while still in the horde, bowling through all the zombies and, in turn, the resulting impact will be less severe. This is because each time a Smasher hits a zombie, its momentum stops and will need to speed back up again.
 * Take caution in high areas with edges. Smashers can easily knock you off with their charge ability.
 * Try not to get backed up into a corner with a player controlled Smasher, as they could punt into you multiple times before you ultimately go down.
 * If possible, use an Epoxy Bomb on a Smasher. This will completely immobilize the zombie.

Zombies

 * If you are playing as a Smasher, you can steer yourself, stop at any time, and can even jump when you are performing your charge ability.
 * Charge at Survivors that are barely moving or are moving in a straight line.
 * Try to make sure there's nothing in your way if you're going to perform a long distance charge.
 * Try to back Survivors up against corners. That way, you'll kill them faster if you're doing your charge attack.
 * Just because you have 320 HP, does not mean you are invincible. Work strategically along with your fellow zombie players to take the Survivors down easier.

Trivia

 * The Smasher is heavily based off of the Charger from Left 4 Dead 2.
 * The Smasher is one of the only two zombies in the game that can kill other zombies, the other being the Tank.
 * The Smasher is the second strongest zombie in the game, the first being the Tank (2500 HP, formerly 1000 HP).
 * The ability to steer yourself as a Smasher was not intentional and was a bug. In actuality, you were meant to charge in a singular line and stop as soon as you ran out of stamina.
 * Interestingly enough, the Smasher appears to be lacking an arm.
