 * Peashooter - Good starting class. Has a way to go to high locations, a "last resort" move, and a move to deal heavy damage. The splash damage helps it as well.
 * Sunflower - A more "projectile" themed medic, Sunflower prides herself in only healing. Unlike Scientist, two of her abilities are themed solely around healing (though the Heal Flower has an attacking variant) and her last ability is the same "last resort" move Peashooter has.
 * Chomper - People say he's OP but I don't really get why. His Goop is his only projectile, Burrow is hard to swallow with (am I the only one who has problems doing that?), and Spikeweed is just, Spikeweed.
 * Cactus - I loved using this character in GW, but she seems to have been nerfed in GW2. Not by power, but by map design. The levels are way too open and there's not enough camping spots. She doesn't have the defense she needs, though she has the better "sniping" abilities than the put any ability we think of here but still call it a sniper class.
 * Citron - I feel the EMPeach should be nerfed, due to it being Goop 2.0, but other than that, I don't see the problems many people see in it. Though there is one problem. While Captain Deadbeard pretty much had random abilities slapped onto it, Citron got random variants. Only two with the beam the basic version has (and one is the party reskin), a charge variant, a one-shot variant, and a spore variant. The only thing they all really share in common is their abilities and their shape!
 * Kernel Corn - Pretty much a Foot Soldier with some changes. It's still friendly to new players, but much more "assaultive". Don't get why they buffed the health if they were going to keep the buffed up soldier abilities.
 * Rose - I swear, there's an annoying joke called "Rose sucks lawl" and I f***ing hate it. She's been nerfed, stop acting salty. Anyways, Rose is one of those "ok but powerful if you know how to use it" characters, pretty much the same as a Foot Soldier or Scientist. If you give her a homing upgrade and a damage upgrade, you got the Rose before the nerfs. Though similar to Citron, the variants are...odd. Three "fast firing" variants and three charge variants. I only find myself playing Rose and Druid Rose (I don't have Party Rose yet) because I hate charge variants. Just hard for me to use really, and I just dislike them.
 * Torchwood - Yes, it got nerfed, but I'm never going to let go of the fact that this is terrible. They simply reused a model already in the game and called it a new character. Lazyness at its finest. And now we got another Rose situation. OP when released, and now it's horrible. Hope you were lucky enough to get it and master it before the nerf, because that's a nightmare now!

That was the Hero Showcase. Whenever there's a character I don't usually have on it, I take advantage of it. That's how I ranked up Party Corn to specialist despite not having them.
