The Imps not because he couldn't do that in the first game, I don't see why suddenly will do now. Maybe the Prospector.

Now the next ones I consider them as they are programmed in the game and not because the real logic.

The spells are not a solid projectile, rather is just an animation for the Wizard Zombie, so can't be deflected.

The Bones also are not solid and can't be deflected.

The surfboards are an instant kill to the plants.

The octopi are not a solid projectile too.

The Umbrella deflects projectiles (and the Bungee Zombie) that actually damage the plants, this means that the projectiles can "touch" the plants, but none of the previous one can't damage the plants, except the surfboards, but I don't see how can be deflected. It seems that you don't know how Umbrella Leaf would work if she got implemented. After she gets planted, the spaces around her and the space where she is planted will become immune to certain attacks. The things/zombies I mentioned above will be coded in such way that they can't touch the protected spaces. It's almost the same thing as Jester's coding.

In the first game, she could only deflect the Bungee Zombies and the Basketballs because she was buily that way. The same went with Blover and Ballon Zombies.

Still, the spells is very unlikely.
