      in my opinion, gold bloom is one of the most useless plant in the game because spear mint exists.
      if you dig up all the spikerocks, you get have of the 250 sun back that you did not spend, that is 125 sun times 5 so 625 sun.
      gold bloom gives you 375, that is almost half.
      or you can keep the spikerocks so that you dont need the sun.
      it also instantly is recharged at the start of a level and you dont even have to pay for it.
      leveling up the plant (which i know does not count) also gives way more value and does not cost any coins.
      the only things that are better for goldbloom is that it recharges 10 seconds faster and can be imitatered

    you gotta admit tho the worst plants are really satisfying to use in the same way the hypno shroom is bad but fun to use.
    witch hazel is fun because creating allies out of zombies is cool despite being kinda bad. Escape root is fun because gambling and sometimes getting a massive W that is grapeshot. Electric blueberry feels great when you get an instant kill on a powerful unit and with a ton of them it looks cool and can hold it's own on starting levels of every world. chomper is cool because he can just destroy heavy units with 1 chomp when other plants would struggle. toadstool does the same as the chomper with sun. i feel instant kill units can be fun as they offer rare high moments in a game that can become repetitive quickly despite being not great.

      I like stacking Electric blueberry with Caulipower to have double the insta kill power since their weakness is the long time it takes to use the effect. Also Electric blueberry is extremely good in last stand due to her low cost so you can usually get 1 or 2 rows of her, compared to caulipower who's double the price. Also zen charged Hypno Shroom is excellent. Turning enemies into gargs, it has one of the best zen garden effects in the game. At least without factoring the zoybean that effectively does the same thing. but without being eaten. XD Still you can use both for some cool combos.

    As someone who owns all but 4 of these (and will be getting them this weekend) I must say Electric Peashooter in my opinion is slightly better than snow pea. Also Witch Hazel should be moved to 4th worst and escape root 5th, just because escape root has the niche ability to move endangered plants, and there's a glitch that allows you to remove endangered plants from the board entirely without losing the level. Besides that, this is a massive improvement over the original tier list. Banger video as always.

    Bro, Chomper is way better than you are giving it credit for. Sure, it doesn't kill gargantuars, but it does massive damage. If you bring, say, a primal wallnut to stall it, then you should be able to kill the gargantuar with it. Furthermore, although it only kills 1 zombie at a time, the recharge is very fast, making them very spamable. Their chewing time is much faster in the game than in PvZ1. And PvZ2 levels have less zombies generally, making Chomper pretty great to use to just spam it on the lawn. It counters pretty much every zombie too, except for the zombies that have a far distance attack.

    • @Counltdooku

      Sure, it’s good if it wasn’t for the fact that it costs 5 dollars and if your spending that much you should be spending it on something worth it like caluipower that can not only one shot a garg at a range of the entire board but can REVERSE IT ON YOUR SIDE just for an additional 100 sun pretty good deal if you ask me

    2. Snow Pea - Chilling an entire area is really good
    3. Electro Pea - Bypass multiple zombies on 3 lane

    4. Cactus - He's alright I guess?

      @@KhajaSodhuLeague of Legends likely. Comparing two completely different games with the same logic. Though to answer catmuch's question
      In the tower defense genre, crowd control almost always means countering swarming as a strat by doing AoE damage or remove group sponges that defend an otherwise tanky threat. This could be in the form of an AoE attack, or a high DPS, low power attack like lightning reed that hard counters chicken zombies, the bane of many plays due to it's large numbers and high speed. There's also cases where large groups of basic zombies could be blocking the shots towards a wizard or octo zombie that will destroy your towers, so you need a way to reduce those numbers so you can hit the bigger threats with plants like Electric blueberry or Caulipower.

    thank you for actually praising snow pea for what its worth
    its actually a super good plant since if you have enough of them the zombies are just in a constant state of freeze
    and its hella cheap and spammable its actually one of the best plants in the game i'd argue
    it also works well with plants like coconut canon and banana launcher since you'll have some leftover sun with all those snowpeas
    its always been my favorite and its buff is really good i def reccomend using it

    Cool ranking! I have some disagreements though:
    1:Snow Pea should still be in the worst list. It is straight up a worse Winter Melon.
    2:Escape Root has a secret ability. If you hold it while a zombie is coming to it and when the zombie comes to it and you hold it to an empty tile when it is about to explode, it will become invincible. Yes seriously. Nothing is able to kill it, even Gragantuars.

    1. Electric peashooter

    And if you are wondering why I put parsnip above grape shot even though grape shot does more damage grape shot is a single use and does kills a a good amount of zombies zombies on the map and is honestly very good but parsnip is a melee plant and does great damage so it is better in my opinion

      Shoots 3 peas at a slow rate against mechs and gargs. It's actually countered by them the same way Toadstool is because it doesn't do anything threatening to them at all. Chomper does a lot of damage per chomp to them and it's plant food can push them back, while the other two would be wasted on a garg. so even though it seems like a jack of all trades plant, It does have a weakness that really matters. I really like it though.

      In Tower defense, the purpose of crowd control is to do exactly what he's trying to get at. If you have like several basic zombies walling a dangerous zombie like octo zombie, you need to get rid of them so you can effectively destroy the stronger one that's threatening your board. Destroying weaker zombies IS crowd control as swarming is an effective strategy to block single target or limited range shots meant for stronger enemies, wasting DPS. And yes, the weakness of those plants is despite having strong power meant for stopping stronger zombies, they are vastly overwhelmed by weaker targets absorbing the hit, especially since for "balance reasons" they prioritize targetting weaker zombies or in Witch Hazel's case, the free puffshroom dies instantly doing effectively nothing worth the cost. That's why the plant either needs to target stronger zombies more effectively, or needs to help clear the road.

      In the early days of PvZ2 it made more sense. Chomper was an insta kill and Snow Pea was a projectile that slows zombies. Compared to the single use Ice lettuce and the high priced wintermelon, it was balanced around being easier to spam and getting the same effect. and Chomper being a fast recharge insta kill for one zombie compared to Squash's slower recharge made it more spammable. But with IMMENSE power creep over the years, both kind of feel like they should be free. At least Chomper was buffed to eat 3 zombies now before chewing and only costs a dollar, as Snap pea literally out classed it in every possible way.

    Ok, I'm late but I genuinely think putting stool in the bottom is kinda defeating it's point. Unlike chomper I use it more as a supporting plant for building sun and having instant kills for things like jesters. I don't like chomper cause it's range is limited, limiting its potential to eat more than a few zombies per row(per plant) but the range of toadstool makes it easier to use as just a free insta for harder zombies outside of gargs. Genuinely love the plant, kinda sad to see it as the worst but I get why.
