 * Added to the game.

With
At first, you might think that Sap-Fling is terrible for having only 3 and being a 6 plant, but his ability to make an environment to take away 3 from zombies makes it worth it. Playing it while Cosmoss is on the field will give Cosmoss +1/+1. Sap-Fling's ability can also override a zombie environment and shut down the abilities of Kite Flyer, Zombot Drone Engineer, Zom-Bats, Vimpire, Space Ninja, and Space Cowboy if they are unboosted and untouched. Sap-Fling can also nullify the Deadly, Strikethrough, and Frenzy traits on zombies with 3 or less. This also makes Whack-a-Zombie viable as it lower zombies' strength, making them in Whack-a-Zombie's range.

Against
When Sappy Place is made on a lane with a zombie, either move the zombie with Smoke Bomb or Bounce the zombie with Firefighter or Secret Agent. Giving the zombie +3 will undo the ability of Sappy Place. You can also override Sappy Place with another environment.

To destroy Sap-Fling, play instant-kill tricks like Rocket Science or Locust Swarm. Because of his low health, anything that does 3 or more damage, like Zombot's Wrath, can destroy him as well.

Do not Bounce Sap-Fling unless you need to, as your opponent can play Sap-Fling again and make another Sappy Place.

Trivia

 * Unlike his Plants vs. Zombies 2 counterpart, he damages zombies.
 * He and Sportacus are currently the only event cards in the Smarty class without the Amphibious trait.
 * Sometimes, he gets +1 after damaging the zombie hero. This is most likely a glitch or developer oversight.
 * Out of all 6-cost plants in his class, he has the least health.
 * He is the only event card, as well as the only tree card in the Smarty class.
 * He is also the only pinecone card in the Smarty class.
