Jurassic Marsh's premiums... They irk me. They aren't bad plants by any means. What makes me get angry at them, is the fact that they are direct upgrades to Cherry Bomb and Snapdragon, yet have the same sun cost as them. At least with Twin Sunflower, Primal plants, Winter Melon, Spikerock, etc, those are higher in sun cost. Grapeshot and Cold Snapdragon literally give you no reason to use Cherry Bomb and Snapdragon. The excuse that "they're premium" doesn't really work, as all plants should be balanced. One shouldn't completely trump another simply because it needs to be bought. All plants are unique, and even in the case of, say, Wall-nut and Primal Wall-nut, at least Wall-nut could still be worth using because of it's lower sun cost. I honestly feel Grapeshot should be 225 sun, and Cold Snapdragon should be 200, or have it's damage changed to 1 NDS.

TL;DR: I don't like that Grapeshot and Cold Snapdragon give you no reason to use Cherry Bomb and Snapdragon. 6.99 should give you OP PLANTS!!!!! That is a heck of a cost. Like I said, just because an item is paid, doesn't mean it should be OP. All the plants should be balanced. And while some do make others less useful, the less useful ones still have the advantage of a lower sun cost. If it isn't OP, why would anyone spend 6.99 whole bucks on it! Electric Blueberry? Anyone forget about her? She kills gargs really nicely. BUt let's see....SHE'S BALANCED! Same with Jack O' Lantern.

Grapeshot and Cold Snapdragon are NOT balanced. (I still will use Cherry Bomb and Snapdragon, however.  Which is why I see a lot of complaints about EB! And to me, jol is OP. Even better with sweet potato and PW! Long story short: Being premium is not an excuse for being OP. I repeat, who would buy it if it isn't OP? People like me, who want it for completionist's sake, or people that simply want a new plant to use. Not the majority.
