Strategies
With
As the name implies, Wall-Nut's role is to take damage to protect either your hero, an important plant, or both. His cheap cost of 1 sun means that he can prevent most damage done to your hero at the first turn. Spineapple can also be played to apply pressure to the enemy by giving him +2 strength, allowing Wall-Nut to actually retaliate.
Because of his nut tribe, he can be given more health with Smackadamia, or be paired up with Mirror-Nut to make the zombie hero think twice about using damaging tricks on it. Pecanolith can also be used effectively with Wall-Nut, essentially turning him into a 6/6 plant for 1.
Against
A cheap and early counter to Wall-Nut is Rolling Stone. Also, zombies with Deadly make quick work of him. If Wall-Nut is protecting a frail plant such as Mushroom Ringleader or Template:PvZHLink, using Strikethrough zombies such as Hot Dog Imp, Line Dancing Zombie and Template:PvZHLink can damage Wall-Nut and destroy the plant behind him. Template:PvZHLink and Impfinity can use this advantage even further by giving the Deadly trait to the three aforementioned zombies via Super Stench. Frenzy also works, but only if the zombie is powerful enough to destroy a Wall-Nut.
Alternatively, Neptuna can use Team Mascot combined with Toxic Waste Imp and either Coffee Zombie or Possessed. Template:PvZH Link can use the same tactic with Toxic Waste Imp, but with Loudmouth or Vimpire combined with Maniacal Laugh instead. However, for both cases, the Imp must survive the attack of the offensive plant behind the Wall-Nut, if there is one.
Gallery
Plants vs. Zombies Wiki has a gallery for Wall-Nut (PvZH).
He is one of the plants that appear in the Mixed Nuts card, along with Small-Nut and a plant that looks like a pistachio.
Unlike Small-Nut, Wall-Nut's appearance in Mixed Nuts is not the same as his regular appearance. It is instead based upon Wall-nut's appearance in Plants vs. Zombies 2.
He also has more health than his version in Mixed Nuts.
For some reason, he has his Plants vs. Zombies art style appearance, while the hero based on him, Wall-Knight, has his Plants vs. Zombies 2 appearance.
At the beach that is the location for missions like Attack of the Tentacles!, there are three surfboards on the right side of the field. On one surfboard there is a picture of a Wall-Nut.
The two other plants that appear on the other surfboards are Template:PvZHLink and Template:PvZHLink.
When the player opens Plants vs. Zombies Heroes for the first time, two Wall-Nuts (one male and one female) will appear and the game will ask for the player's age. When the player moves the bar to select their age, the Wall-Nuts' appearances will change according to the age selected.
He is the only card to have degrade stages.
This could be a reference to the fact that Wall-Nut has degrades in other games that he is in.
Despite the fact he uses his appearance from Plants vs. Zombies, when he degrades, he will keep smiling instead of frowning.
With a total of 6 for the cost of 1, he has the highest health-per-cost ratio of any card in the game, with one sun equating to six health.
However, Wall-Nut, along with other cards such as Template:PvZH Link or Water Chestnut, also have the lowest damage-per-cost ratios in the game, with zero damage per one sun.
When Wall-Nut is frozen, only his eyes get affected visually, turning blue.
