Nope. I mean Fanatic Fandom.

"But-"

I know. I know. I haven't even started the cards.

Anyway, do you think Pea Patch (Fusion: A Plant played on this gets +2/+2) needs to be buffed? Pumpkin Shell costs 1 more and gives more health (+2/+4). I already am full of ideas for cards. Yes, pea patch should give double strike

Based on Pea Patch's zombie counterpart Killer Whale, no.

Killer Whale used to be a 2-cost 2/2 amphibious "Fusion: Zombie gets +2/+2 and amphibious" which was a straight upgrade to Pea Patch that only gives +2/+2. Later they nerfed Killer Whale to 2/1 and gives +2/+1, so its Pea Patch with 1 less health and amphibious, so it's fair.

If Pea Patch gave Double Strike it would become far more powerful than Killer Whale.

Repeater and Cat Tail cost the same, except Cat tail has +1 strength and amphibious instead of Double Strike, indicating Double Strike is slightly more valuable than amphibious.

So in the context of +2/+1 amphibious vs +2/+2 double-strike, Pea Patch would be superior in both trait and stat buff.

Not to mention, if Pea Patch had Double Strike itself, it would be a straight upgrade to Repeater. 2/2 Doublestrike but costs 1 sun less.
