I feel your pain, Chickens killed me in BBB too.

However, I find Dolphin Riders to be more of a pain. Especially if PvZ1 had PvZ2-style EZs, because high-speed zombies in EZs are ALWAYS annoying. ALWAYS. Snow Pea + Repeater can tackle it after it jumps, but is not ever enough to kill it before it jumps. Tangle Kelp and Squash? Yeah, sure. Chomper and Iceberg work on Chicken Wranglers to prevent the release of Chickens too. Heck, Stunion probably works as well. I also never said Dolphin Riders were OP, just that they were stronger than Chickens.

And I got to 100 in BBB without ANY Power-ups or Boosts. Granted, I had prems, Power Lily helped me a lot, but still, it wasn't that bad. You're overexaggerating the difficulty of Chickens, which as I said in the blog, people constantly do.

Also, apparently Icebound Battleground is a pain not specifically because of Weasels, but ice blocks. Frozen zombies, including Weasel Hoarders, can end up in the fourth column from the left before you even reach level 20 apparently. O_o

And apparently icy winds can totally and instantly freeze almost every plant, allowing zombies to rush through your defences while the plants are being defrosted. So in other words, Icebound Battleground is apparently difficult, insanely difficult in fact, but because of stage effects, not zombies.
