Card description
"Yes! Yes! Let's do this! Let's do this!"

With
Repeater is a fragile but potentially rewarding offensive plant. Its main strength lies in its guarantee bonus attack after battle, which can double the value of any offensive boost attached to it. This also means however that any armor on the opposing zombie will have twice the ability as the armor will apply to both attacks.

As demonstrated in the tutorial, a Repeater behind a is a good combination of plants and can cause a lot of damage to a zombie or a zombie hero. Keep in mind that there are other peashooting plants that can replace the Repeater, like the Skyshooter.

Planting a Repeater while The Podfather is on the field will increase the strength and health points of the Repeater by 2. Party Thyme can also be used in conjunction with Repeater to set up a draw engine and get additional cards per turn.

Against
Try to quickly get rid of this. Its special ability could potentially destroy a weak zombie and damage the zombie hero in one battle phase. Leaving no zombie to combat it will result in the zombie hero losing 4 health, which is 1/5 of its health, which could be troubling. Try using a zombie that will do at least 2 damage. Tennis Champ is good for combating this, however, it will be destroyed in the process. The zombie will get 4 damage that turn and surely take this plant out. Its brain cost makes this more efficient. Jester can also pressure the plant hero, as it will survive the attack from Repeater.

Beware when this plant teaming up with other plants such as Torchwood or The Podfather, as they will boost this plant, making it more threatening. In this case, going after these plants is a must, or the zombie hero might face losing early.

Tricks can easily take out this plant before the fight wave begins, so using them is a good idea.
