Dazey Chain

Dazey Chain is a premium plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2 that was introduced in the 7.3.1 update. They grow through stages, becoming more powerful at each stage, releasing a stunning puff of gas after growing a stage, as well as once every thirteen attacks in their final growth stage. The stun lasts for four seconds. Dazey Chain requires 100 seed packets to unlock them for free.

At Level 1, Dazey Chain must attack eighteen times to grow to their second stage, where they must then attack another eighteen times to grow to their final stage.

Origins
They are based on the Bellis perennis, also known as the common daisy.

Their name is a pun of "daisy chain," a string of daisies threaded together by their stems, referencing their appearance, and "daze," which is to put someone/something in a state of stunned confusion, referencing their ability.

Plant Food effect
When fed Plant Food, Dazey Chain will instantly grow to their final stage and release a stunning gas that lasts four seconds.

Contain-mint effect
When boosted by Contain-mint, Dazey Chain will gain additional DPS on their shots depending on what stage they are in (65 for small, 130 for medium, and 195 for large), as well as have their stun duration increased to six seconds.

Strategies
It's best to start planting Dazey Chain as soon as possible so that they have a sufficient amount of time to grow and upgrade.

Dazey Chain does well against slow moving zombies, as they give them more time to grow. Pair them with plants such as Sap-fling or Primal Peashooter to help them grow. Stallia and Iceberg Lettuce are also good alternatives. It is not recommended to use Dazey Chain with ice plants as their slowing effects do not stack, this is true with Sap-fling as well.

It's worth noting that Dazey Chain's cloud affects the mechs in Far Future, making Dazey Chain a good choice to help stun the mechs.
