With
Sage Sage is mostly like a Cell Phone Zombie whose ability can only be activated in the late-game. While Sage Sage has slightly better stats compared to Cell Phone Zombie, its situational ability makes Sage Sage inferior in most situations. Another alternative for Sage Sage is Morning Glory, as both have abilities that activate when 6 is made, but Morning Glory is relatively better due to its stats. While it can be paired with Bananasaurus Rex to boost its stats, other cards with the same ability such as Flourish, Holo-Flora, and Party Thyme are more effective. If you want to use this though, it is advised that you focus on creating lots of sun early on.

Against
Sage Sage's ability encourages your opponent to play it much later in the game, when plants with stats these low have nowhere to stand. However, if Sage Sage is played in the early-game, be careful since Sage Sage can still take your zombies down. Because it is used for its ability and not its stats, it shouldn't be that much of a threat.
