User blog:Moon Snail/Moon Snail's Top 15 favorite and least favorite plants

Since these are becoming popular, I decided to take my own crack at it. I will not judge a plant based off of being world-exclusive or having a high price tag (Yes, that means you're off the hook, Electric Blueberry. Cherish this moment, you expensive-a** fruit.), or for their plant food only (Sorry, Spring Bean and Infi-nut.)

#15. Spu-DOOP!


While I don't like the modern day Potato mine due to his slow recharge and lack of use in later in the level, Primal Potato Mine is a fantastic unit. For only 25 extra sun, you get a lightning-fast arm time, and a huge explosion! Is that cool or what!?

#14. Freeze! Put your hands up!


For such a low price tag (If even a price tag), Iceberg Lettuce is a great plant. You can freeze one zombie to catch a bit of time near the beginning.

This is the highest Ancient Egypt plant on the list.

#13. He can swing from a vine!


As much as I want to include Cherry Bomb instead, because he isn't 7 freaking dollars, I mentioned that I wouldn't judge a plant by its price tag, so alas, I will include this expensive bundle of fruits instead. Grapeshot (Cherry Bomb) is a great plant for saving your skin at the last moment and weakening Gargantuars. Grapeshot (Cherry Bomb) explodes in a 3x3 area, dealing massive damage to every zombie in that area. Another great thing about Grapeshot (Not Cherry Bomb) is the grape spread, which while it doesen't make a big difference, can save you in the worst of times.

If you aven't noticed at this point, I prefer the not freaking 7 dollars Cherry Bomb. I barely see how Grapeshot's added effect makes a big enough difference to spend 7 dollars for.

#12. PUSH


Primal Peashooter is the first of four primal plants. And man, what an introduction it is. Not only does it do more DPS than Peashooter, but it also knocks back Zombies. In addition, place a blover down when a zombie is knocked back to kill them outright! Aw yeah!

#11.Donkey Kong's favorite


I don't get why so many people hate this fella. Yes, he's expensive, but for what he does, he has every right to be. He's no Cob Cannon, sure, but he gets the job done. A lot of damage on a lot of zombies. What's not to like?

This is the highest Big Wave Beach plant on the list.

Banana!

#10.IMMA FIRIN MA-


Hard to believe I used to not like this guy. He attacks every zombie in front of him! Considering the huge amount of zombies this game brings, this is a very good thing.

#9. The great wall... nut.


I've been waiting for this for generations! A fast recharging defensive plant! Not only that, but it can survive Gargantuar smashes and All-star smashes! Fantastic!

This is the highest Jurassic Marsh plant on the list.

Hard to believe these plants thought evolving into their modern counterparts was a good idea... Except in Sunflower's case.

#8. Blover's brother


If I had a dollar for every time this guy saved my brains and lawnmowers, I could buy Grapeshot instead of whining about his price tag. This guy pushes back every zombie on the lane. I use this guy EVERYWHERE. Ancient Egypt, Pirate Seas, Wild West, Far Future, Dark Ages, Big Wave Beach, Frostbite Caves, Lost City, Neon Mixtape Torture Chamber, Jurassic Marsh, Modern Day... Can't fail with this guy.

This is the highest Gem Plant on the list.

#7. Duuuuuuusk LOBBA!


Modern Day introduced a lot of Shadow plants as a new mechanic. My most used of the bunch, aside from Moonflower, of course, is this gal. She is exactly what we need. Not only a plant that can hurt multiple zombies, but BENEFITS from multiple zombies! Oh yeah! Only problem with her is her long recharge, which is sad, since I usually Imitate Moonflower to get more up early on. Speaking of imitating...

#6. Copycat!


Imitater stops a lot of recharge related problems. You can use him with anything. Imitate a sun producer to get sun faster! Imitate a defensive plant to get defenses up faster! Imitate a Grapeshot (Cherry Bomb) to blast things more constantly! You can't go wrong with Imitater!

#5.Moon Snail


Same sun production as Twin Sunflower for 2/5ths of the cost? Yes. Please. Considering I use Dusk Lobber a lot, I use this girl a lot too. Her slow recharge is nothing if you use the aforementioned Imitater!

This is the highest Modern Day plant on the list.

#4. From Zero to Hero


If you remember me in 2012, I had a great disdain for Blover. That's because he sucked in the first game. In the second game, on the other hand, ooooooh ho ho, I LOOOOOOOOOOVE this thing! A lot of annoyances such as Imps, Bugs, Balloons, Raptors, etc. are no more! And just look at the combos with this thing! Primal Peashooter, Spring Bean, Chard Guard, YES YES YES PLEASE!

.*Cough* Sorry. Gushed about Blover a little too much there...

#3.Do you freeze in fear... Or do you take the sear?


Now I know what you're thinking..."But Cold Snapdragon's better in almost every way than Snapdragon! Why do you include both?" THAT'S why. I want to give poor Snapdragon some limelight alongside his cousin! The Snapdragon bros deal a lot of damage in groups, and shoot in adjacent lanes! That's so cool! Or hot, depending on the dragon...

Cold Snapdragon is the highest Premium on the list, while Snapdragon is the highest Pirate Seas plant on the list.

#2. Vitamin C MY POWER!


Yes yes yes, I get it. I've heard it all! It takes too long to charge up! It usually shoots weak zombies! It has no splash! But you know what? I love this guy anyway! 40 points of sheer, orangy goodness going right at the zombies! And the plant food effect is great too! Gargantuars are not a problem anymore! Neither are the zombies in front of him!

This plant is the highest Far Future plant on the list.

#1. Wibbly Wobbly Timey Wimey Yes Yes AWESOME!


The only plant. Seriously. The only freaking plant that could possibly rival Hurrikale in the number of times he's saved my brains. Not only does Thyme Warp push zombies on his own lane, but he takes it a step further by doing it to THE ENTIRE LAWN. For 25 sun less than hurrikale, no less. The health restore means nothing when you're saving your skin instantly! Plus, Headgear isn't coming back, and Imps are off the gargs' backs! If Thyme Warp was available in other worlds, you dang bet I'd be using him everywhere! He's the only thing that kept me from losing my sanity in NMT, which I felt was harder than Big Wave Beach otherwise.

Thyme Warp is the highest Neon Mixtape Tour plant on the list.

The Fools.
I'll add them tomorrow. I'm tired.
