I do, because I want to deal more damage with that Mountain Climber or Deep Sea Garg That's a viable strategy. Force your opponent to use up his shield on a weak attack before plowing your strongest attack through to severely injure or destroy him.

You can also use it defensively - if you know a weak attack will trigger your shield, you can put your plant or zombie in a different lane to soak up a stronger hit or save up the brains or sun for a trick.
