Its description is a reference to the jokes in many of the cards' descriptions, with the word "corny" being a pun on the fact that Kernel-Pult is a corn plant.

Strategies
With
If your opponent has just played a powerful 1 card like Mini-Ninja or Cuckoo Zombie, then this is the perfect card to play, with a low cost and the Team-Up trait. This can also be used to weaken other turn 1 cards like Chimney Sweep or Quickdraw Con Man so they can be destroyed more quickly. However, this isn't a great card to use late-game unless you use it to activate Cob Cannon's Evolution ability, as its stat decrease will not affect high-stat zombies as much.
Because of its Team-Up trait, you can use it to protect other plants on heights or boost it with Go-Nuts, although the latter strategy can only be used normally by Rose.
Against
A good way to deal with this card is to play tougher zombies early on, like Arm Wrestler and Iron Boarder. Otherwise, don't play fragile turn 1 zombies against a Solar hero, as they can destroy it easily with this card.
