I know Pineclone and Blakc Eyed Pea are really good, but others... really? I want to say Im just not using them right and they're actually really good cards thus deserve the rarity increase, but I RARELY see a lot of these cards like Electrician

Thoughts:

-Bad Moon Rising is an decent counter to Smarty heroes who weaken your zombies constantly and try to keep your lanes clogged with weak zombies. Otherwise pretty useless. Its unlikely you'd have a ton of zombies alive by the start of tricks on turn 7, and if you do you're probably about to win anyways.

Even more common, Smarty heroes would probably play Brainana if you're saving a lot of brains for tricks.

-Thinking Cap, eh not quite as good as Quazard. Double the price, double the Superpowers, but no 2/2 zombie.

With all the anti-trick stuff coming out, I dont think either of the two above are viable.

All a plant hero needs is anti-trick stuff in a control deck, and they're pretty much unstoppable. Anti-Trick stuff: Forget Me Nuts, Black Eyed Pea, Sportacus, DMD, Brainana

-Kitchen Sink Zombie I havent found much use in. His ability to destroy plants for a 6 Brain zomie is abyssmal, thus you can counter him by simply putting anything with atleast 4 health infront of him. Once you do, his Frenzy, Bullseye (except with Overshoot), and Anti-Hero traits are nullified. I think his cost needs to be reduced to 5

There is a OP glitch in the dev version atm, if you play a Disco Zombie, the backup he creates turns into a Kitchen Sink Zombie. Likely because hes currently taking Backup dancers place.

-Forget Me Nuts is a must pick for guardian heroes. Not this turn Weedspray!

You can also play them non-stop in Plant Mission 200 to ensure Brainstorm cant play anything

-Hover Goat 3000 I want to say is good, but it suffers one major weakness compared to Loudmouth. Gravestone

Buffing a zombie during the zombies phase makes it much easier to deal with than during tricks, when the gravestone is revealed.

-Clique Peas is not functioning at the moment, but when conjured in the actual game it is definitely one of the best event cards.

Play once, then the rest are 3/3 or higher 1-Sun cards.

TL;DR: Plant event cards great, Zombie Event cards suck. Nothing new I find only a few of the rarity changes necessary. Poppin Poppies, (because of the Lil' Buddies upgrade), Pineclone, Brainana (this plant frustrates me so much when played), but ones like Muscle Sprout should stay Super Rare, and Briar Rose.
