Also, it doesn't shoot straight forward, which, all other shooting plants (obviously except left-facing Repeaters in Vasebreaker) do. But since it shoots 5 stars, it is the cheapest plant with a lot of shooting directions (125 sun for 5 directions). It's also super effective against Pogo Zombies, Dolphin Rider Zombies and Pole Vaulting Zombies, too.
