Set: Event
Card description
Once you get past all the dynamite and bombs, fruitcakes actually contain at least 5% Fruit.
Strategies
With
This card can be seen as a much more cost effective Cakesplosion, doing 6 damage for 2 as opposed to 4 damage for 4. This makes it perfect for removing tough plants such as Kernel Corn, Cornucopia, or even Dark Matter Dragonfruit due to its cheap cost and high damage it deals.
However, this trick also Conjures a fruit card for the plant hero; in turn of the powerful damage. This can range anywhere from a weaker card such as Pear Pal to a very powerful and potentially game-changing such as Captain Cucumber or Pair Pearadise. Also, be very careful about Bananasaurus Rex as she can get a boost from the fruit card it Conjures. As such, this card is quite risky to play and must be played carefully. In fact, try not to play this trick if Captain Cucumber is on the board as he will lower the Conjured card's cost, making it even more dangerous.
Z-Mech can use this trick to his advantage, as he lacks in hard removal cards. He can be able to destroy most tough plants with this trick, but bear in mind that it will also give the plant hero a card advantage.
Against
There isn't much you can do against this card other than to keep your plants' health above 6, which can be hard to do in the beginning turns of the match when this trick can be played. You can also fill the field with many dangerous plants as this trick can only target one plant. Dark Matter Dragonfruit and Forget-Me-Nuts can also increase Exploding Fruitcake's cost to make it harder to be played.
However, keep in mind that it also Conjures you a fruit card, which can be helpful and possibly powerful, so do not worry much about this trick. You can also play Bananasaurus Rex as it gets a boost from the card Exploding Fruitcake Conjures, but she can be easily destroyed by the 6 damage this card deals, meaning you will have to boost her health to at least 7. Having Captain Cucumber in play can also lower the Conjured card's cost.
