With
This plant can be seen as the reverse of, and can be played again if its pit form is well taken care of. As Wall-Knight, using Photosynthesizer can effectively boost its stats to 5/5, rendering it able to take more hits without being destroyed easily and conjure a random Galatic Gardens card as an additional bonus. You can also play a Team-Up plant in front of it to increase its survival chances. Meanwhile, as Solar Flare, you can use Pair Pearadise first on a ground lane and then placed it on the next turn to deal 10 damage to the zombie hero with the copied Astrocado. However, note that Line Dancing Zombie can destroy both Astrocados, since they only have 3. Chompzilla can boost its stats with Fertilize or make it do bonus attacks with.

But note that Rocket Science and Cut Down to Size can destroy it easily, as it will give your opponent a temporary brain advantage. Meanwhile, an Astrocado Pit can also be used on the next turn so that it can be transformed into Astrocado in the following turn.

Against
Since it has only 5/3, there are few solutions for you to destroy it without getting hurt by it, such as Rocket Science or Zombot's Wrath. Take note that it will gain your opponent an Astrocado Pit once you successfully destroy it, as it can fully nullify you if you did not taken care of the Astrocado Pit.
