Bzzzzz...

The official name of this plant is Mastercane. However, a literal translation can be found in its infobox. The official name is to be used on all pages that refer to this plant.

Mastercane (蔗师父; pinyin: zhe shīfu) is a plant from the Chinese version of Plants vs. Zombies 2. He was added in the 2.0 update.

Mastercane uses his nunchaku to attack zombies in two ranges in a range of 3 tiles in front of him,with each attack dealing 25 damage per shot. He repeats a cycle of 3 attacks with his nunchaku. After that, he will cool down for a while.

Origins

He is based on the genus Saccharum, commonly known as sugarcane.

His name comes from "sugarcane", the plant he's based on and "master", probably from Bruce Lee who was the master of chinese arts.

Its costume (a yellow suit) is references to Bruce Lee.

Plant Food effect

Mastercane sends out many circling sticks of nunchaku in 3 lanes (3 tiles down the lanes), and finishes with a wave down the center lane (3 tiles). He will also hit himself with his nunchaku and get dazed, which is only a effect in appearance.

All nunchaku attacks have an exploding effect, which can deal more damage.

Strategies

This plant is quite an offensive one, but attacks slowly, so use slowing plants such as Primal Rafflesia to max out his damage potential. When leveled up, his knockback attack can be useful, but note that he does not work on mechanical enemies. Since he is melee, you want to protect him with something high-health like a Wall-nut.
