Strategies[]
With[]
Cabbage-Pult has average stats for a 2-sun card. While playing them on the heights results in a 3/4 plant, which is really strong for a turn 2 play, this also means that Cabbage-Pult's placement is only limited to one lane, and you will lose out on tempo if you play him anywhere else; for a class that focuses on him, doing so could be detrimental to your strategy.
For synergies, you could combine him with Lily of the Valley for a +3/+3 boost which can turn this plant into a huge threat for the opponent. Cabbage-Pult also has his own place in terms of leafy synergy along with Savage Spinach and Typical Beanstalk; due to him having high health, they have a high chance to survive until turn 4, and since he have only 3, small removal cards like Rolling Stone and Weed Spray wont be able to destroy it.
So overall, Cabbage-Pult generally suffers of being a good competitive card, but only in lower copies amounts. Because without his ability, there are better 2-sun plants to use, it is somewhat situational. Because of his high stats if played on heights this card can be a good Tempo play as well as can serve decently in a leafy deck. Leafy decks have good synergy and are generally usable in the current meta.
Against[]
Cabbage-Pult is a strong card for a turn 2 play, so there is much to worry about including a surprise Savage Spinach on turn 4. Either way, it is recommended to destroy them as soon as possible, although doing so won't be the easiest task since he has a lot of health (if played on heights, which your opponent will surely attempt to do). Hearty removal cards like Rolling Stone or Weed Spray (only if there are other plants worthy of destroying) in Black Hole, or Final Mission would be your best bet, because the other removal cards are much less cost-effective (and not worth it).
He makes the same sound as Pismashio when attacking.
In the Behind The Seeds video published by PopCap's official Plants vs. Zombies youtube channel, you can see the developers working on an unreleased version of Plants vs. Zombies Heroes. During a small segment of the video, you can see an early rendition of Cabbage-Pult as a 2-sun, 1/2 plant that got +2/+2 when he was played on a heights lane.
