Machete

Description
The Machete is a melee weapon that can be bought for 350 Coins or 1000 Diamonds.

Machete's damage is lower than Baseball Bat but has a faster swingrate, which could kill weak or low health zombies pretty fast.

It has the ability to cut which can help you free yourself against Tanglers.

Survivors

 * Use this melee against a Tangler, it can cut the tongue helping you survive longer.
 * If you hate Tanglers, then the Machete is a must use melee.
 * It deals low damage than Baseball Bat, making it useless against hordes of zombies and high health zombies. Go for zombies that are weak or are on low health.
 * It's best to not attack a Banshee, as her high health takes the Machete lots of hits to take her down and her high damage can torn your health quickly if your not careful.
 * The Machete has a faster swingrate with is about 0.8 seconds which can kill weak or low health zombies faster.

Zombies

 * It's recommended to be strategic as Tangler, as the Machete can cut your tongue to help its survivors to free themselves.
 * Instead, work with zombies together to drain Machete user's health for you, even if they are about to cut the tongue.
 * If you can't, then leave the Machete user and find another survivor, or go for survivors that do not have Machete.
 * You can still grab them again though, take advantage to drain the Machete user's health.
 * Machete can't deal alot of damage as compared to other melee weapons, so high health zombies like the Banshee, Bloater and Shaman are good choices to fight Machete users.
 * As a Spitter, work with Tanglers by spitting acid towards a pinned Machete user immediately, if they about to free themselves.
 * As a Chiller, if you think a Machete user is about to cut Tangler's tongue to free themselves, use the "Chilling Breath" to freeze the Machete user immediately.
 * As a Hunter, it's best to lunge a Machete user after they cut the tongue from a Tangler, as they may use a Pipebomb to escape from you and your zombies, killing you quickly.

Pros

 * Helpful when you are pinned by a Tangler.
 * Fast swingrate.

Cons

 * Low damage.
 * Cannot help against a Hunter.

Trivia

 * This is one of the melee weapons to counter a certain zombie (Tangler), with the one being Baseball Bat which counters a Chiller.
 * Some said it was the best melee weapon because it can counter Tanglers which can allow its survivor to survive longer. Just one Tangler without this can result death.
