Three-Nut

Three-Nut is a in Plants vs. Zombies Heroes, and a member of the  class. They cost 3 to play, and have 3/1. They do not have any traits, and their ability sets the strength of all plants to 3 when they are played. This ability persists until all Three-Nuts are removed from the field.

Origin
They are based on a regular, but with an additional head, hence Three-Nut's name.

Their name is a portmanteau of "three," referring to their heads, strength and ability, and "Pea-Nut," the Plants vs. Zombies plant they are based on. Their name also sounds, and is spelt similar to "tree nut," which are nuts that grow from trees, like almonds.

Their description references the phrase "two heads are better than one," and references Three-Nut's three heads.

With
Three-Nut is a very powerful card in the right deck, especially decks that mostly consist of low-strength plants. But to achieve that, its pitiful health must be remedied. Fortunately, the Guardian class has plenty of health-boosting cards, such as Bubble Up, Steel Magnolia, and Smackadamia.

Spudow is likely the best hero to use with this, as he can play many cheap cards, such as or Shroom for Two, which will all become stronger due to Three-Nut's ability. This can be useful for decks that do not have Pineclones.

This plant can also work well with nut decks, so that all of your nuts can fight back. While the strength boost is useless if you are using Health-Nut or Pecanolith, it will at least prevent your nuts from being wiped out by Weed Spray.

The best thing about Three-Nut's ability is that it instantly renders the affected plants immune to most instant-kill tricks like Weed Spray or Rocket Science, so you don't really have to worry about those types of tricks. You can also play to make your 3-strength plants immune to all instant kill tricks, or tricks that can lower their strength or damage, making them vulnerable to Weed Spray. Umbrella Leaf can also make Three-Nut be immune to even a Bungee Plumber for a while.

Against
Three-Nut can become a dangerous card if not dealt with right away. Due to its measly health stat of 1, taking it out is not a difficult task, but it can easily be protected with a plant with higher health. Crazy is best at taking it out, due to having access to Bungee Plumber, The Chickening, and Gizzard Lizard.

The main danger Three-Nut causes is that it makes plants' strength become 3, meaning you cannot instantly destroy them with tricks like Rolling Stone. The aforementioned cards can be used if the plants are weak. If not, cards like Haunting Ghost and can lower a single plant's strength. For a whole group, cards like Sneezing Zombie are more recommended so Weed Spray can be used. However, only The Smash can perform this combo.
