Cob Cannon? Severely nerfed? If we assume that Banana Launcher is the "replacement" of Cob Cannon, then he only got two nerfs and SEVEN buffs.

Cob Cannon takes up two tiles. Banana Launcher takes up one.

Cob Cannon's projectile takes quite a few seconds to actually land. Banana Launcher's projectile lands almost instantly.

Cob Cannon costs a total of 700 Sun. Banana Launcher costs 500. Cob Cannon needs two seed packets (Kernel-pult), while Banana Launcher only requires one.

Cob Cannon takes 36.41 seconds to reload its projectile. Banana Launcher only takes 20 seconds to reload.

Cob Cannon cancels out the effect of plants such as Snow Pea and Winter Melon, while Banana Launcher doesn't.

Cob Cannon takes 50 seconds to recharge, 65 if you take into account the two Kernel-pults. Banana Launcher only needs 5 seconds to recharge.

Banana Launcher only affects a 1x3 area, while Cob Cannon affects a 3x3.

Banana Launcher only does 60 damage, while Cob Cannon does 90 (the equivalent of a Cherry Bomb, Squash, etc.).

Also, not all the powerful plants from Plants vs. Zombies were nerfed. Cherry Bomb? Jalapeño? Melon-pult? Winter Melon?

P.S. Banana Launcher can fire three projectiles per minute, while Cob Cannon takes 72.82 seconds just to fire two projectiles. Yeesh, I was just talking about Cob Cannon and Gloom-shroom.

While Banana Launcher has more buffs, I still kinda miss being able to shoot a cherry bomb missile

But you still have to agree that Phat Beet is a lot worse than Gloom-shroom Yes, but many other plants have been majorly buffed! Agreed, and while Phat Beet is weaker than Gloom Shroom, you can plant them much faster. I belive taht the PVZ 2 plants employ a strength in numbers tactic.
