Is it wrong to say that I don't get all the Puff Shroom hate? Yes, he's weak. Very, very weak. But he works very well as a replacement for Iceberg Lettuce or Potato Mine in early game, which is pretty dang useful.

Yes, he's not as potent at night as he used to be. But that's really my main argument on why mushrooms should have stayed in PvZ1 mode- if Puff Shroom were more potent, he'd wreak havoc in the daytime.
