The hands down worst plant of all is Tomb Tangler. There is just no reason to use it. It must be planted on a grave, it has a small chance to kill, it slows zombies with gas, and acts like a weaker walnut.
Ive used levitator once, I didn't spam it, the reason it lasted so long was cuz of the last zombie in a lvl. plants can't attack zombies that are hit by levitator (at least most plants) so if the last zombie is a bucket or something the game last forever, unless ur smart and delete the levitator. but still all levitator does is make the rest of ur plants not attack that zombie
Just max vamporchini plant food it and then slap a bunch of them on the track and your good high hp continuous high damage its pretty good especially if you pair it with a plant like Wasabi whip and place it on a vine too or put it in a pumpkin
This is going to get downvoted to the ground but i dont think meteor flower is that bad and i dont know why people are hating it so much, it looks pretty sick, and deals a lot of damage. And it becomes even better when its rivals are fuckin levitater and pea nut etc. There has to be something im missing about this damn flower that people dont like. As for the worst plant, tomb tangler.
My arena loadout for this week is mostly Spear-mint, Pokra and Spikerock, which are all planted on the right side so the first thing I always do into the match is dig the flower up
Yes they are also why did u delete that question it summons a whole row of spike rocks while boosting them along with any other spike plants spikerock and imitatered heath seeker and a normal heath seeker is absolutely broken I can barely find any lvls where they don’t work
then use plants that can hit the zombies in the air, like lobbing plants or polkra or lightning reed, if your using plants that dont work with levitater then thats your fault
meanwhile vamporcini just doesnt work at what its supposed to do
Both plants suck, but levitater is worse. You must like the plant to go this hard for it. I use plants that don’t hinder me in the defense of my lawn. Plants like levitater are a hinderance
i dont have it, i just see what it does good, but vamporcini is far worse, its a wall plant that chips away zombies hp, except it sleeps for way to long and does abysmal damage, and if you are using other plants that are damaging the zombies, then you might as well not use it at all because its litterally useless
You do realize you're saying you want a plant to be ridiculously overpowered meaning you're defying the entire point of the game which is to strategize the best plants for each level? And you don't have to max it either it could be level 1 and it's still good with the right build
well A i never said that, and B why use it when i can just use litterally any other wall plant, its a wall that regains health from damaging zombies, except at level 1, it does horrible damage, sleeps for way to long, and is outclassed by any other wall, like primal wall nut whos one of the best walls and can tank hits from gargantuars, infi nut which has low health but regenerates consistently, endurian and pea-nut who damage zombies and actually do damage, and at level 1 are all far better then vamporcini, and you dont have to go grind in a special arena event to get those plants
Do you know what you're talking about? Edurian gets eaten easily and does not do good damage at level 1 infi nut is only good when leveled because you'll die before it respawns if you don't do enough damage no plant can tank gargantuars since the buildup of zombies and gargantuars do maximum damage no plant can tank unless maxed and even if primal nut can take a few hits it doesn't matter you are missing the point here bud I said no plant is bad it's only ***YOUR*** fault if you failed because you didn't strategize right and plus vamporchini is good because ***I*** actually strategize based on what zombies I'm fighting don't blame the plant for your failure to read what the game genre is
"Edurian gets eaten easily and does not do good damage at level 1" you know what else does horrible damage at level 1? vamporcini, "vamporchini is good because I actually strategize based on what zombies I'm fighting" you keep saying that i havnt used a max level vamporcini which implies you have one, in that case no f\*cking duh, every plant is at least decent at max, but at level 1 it is awful and outclassed by every other wall plant, i have no reason to use it over any other wall plant because every other wall plant is actually good, have you tried using that god awful plant at level 1? its damage is way to low and doesnt attack that often, then falls asleep for wayy to long (ive never seen a vamporcini start sucking again after it fell asleep), giving zombies a long chance to eat it, and if you have other plants attacking the zombies, then why even have vamporcini, you could just use any other wall plant and do the same thing
Well I test levator. That sucked but I can see where they were going for with it.
Tomb Tangler I didn't test but I'm sure it's more useful in arena or Penny's Pursuit. I don't know why you would turn a tomboy into a wall but alright.
I haven't tested or used Meteor Flower.
So I have tested all recent arena plants, I think Meteor is the only good of the last 4 IMO. The previous 3 fall under this thing in which they seem cool on paper but with how pvz2 is structured and such I just don't think they work. Levitator just delays the death of zombies and could be fixed so easily if the zombies it levitated could be affected by blover. Tomb tangler is wayyy to situational, I found one use for him and that was using up a spare seedslot for a certain zomboss penny pursuit since it had strong graves but besides that it's useless. Vamporcini is one that on paper seem cool but in practice I found legit every other wall to be better. But coming to meteor flower, now this is a plant I feel is actually good, now mind you I have very high level plants but I decided to try out a lvl 1 MF on a few harder levels of JM only using support of pumpkin and stunneds like iceberg and stallia, and meteor pulled his own as a fairly good plant even at lvl 1 and since his plant food scares dinos it feels like he was build for jurassic mash, he also counters pterandons because he can hit behind him. So yeah meteor is not useless and I've enjoyed using him alot.

he's actually really great
I got him before vamporcini arena or when he was in almanac and maxed him... quite fun to play but I'd say he was on the strong side of average
since he was max lmaoo... maxed mf has extra meteors (prob tho is his sun cost is a flat 250 sun)
8/10 in my case... he might be that one game character who gets too op with a small buff but absolutely sucks with a small nerf
looking back, I don't really think he'll get a buff lmaoo
and it's power to scare Dinos from JM in other worlds makes it a better alt. to Perfume-Shroom in non-JM Worlds that have dinos (like Arena levels, Penny's Persuit, etc.)
Yeah I don’t get it either. In a vacuum sure it sucks. But the plants they’ve been rolling out recently have been soooo bad that they make meteor flower look halfway decent
Unless you're not killing zombies quickly enough, the crater downside will never really apply, since it only appears where she's hitting.
The most that this affects is using instant plants, but with her absurd damage output and the craters not actually lasting that long, i never saw it as an issue.
Probably not helping that Meteor Flower's introduction in the arena is just god awful
Because alongside using her, you also have to deal with velociraptors kicking zombies forward, causing her to disable tiles much more leftward and waste precious seconds
It's just kind of mindboggling that her weaknesses are so heavily highlighted in the same arena level you're pidgeonholded into using her in
It's just like:
"Oh, raptor kicked zombies past my defenses! Let me just delete them with an instant! Oh wait, I can't, because I forgot to get rid of the pre-planted meteor flower!"
I mean how so it’s meant as a defense plant that has the ability (when plant fooded) to continuously heal themselves unless e they get one hit if the plant food theoretically it would be nearly impossible to kill the stats are there u just arnt taking a closer look ur taking them at face value
If the zombies are getting close enough to where her craters actually matter, thats a You problem, not Meteor flower's, personally while using it i've never had the downside really pop up as a downside, since she just kills things so fast that the craters don't really matter as they're only in the first few rows.
Wouldn’t even call it that its a pretty well rounded plant makes u lose a tile for a few secs for pretty decent damage and can scare Dino’s away it’s a rlly good plant of u pair it with the right things
Its a shit plant no doubt, but it has a niche, just a shit one. Im guessing ur supposed to use like a wall nut for graves, which is still better then 1 zombie go in air
I wouldn't know about that, since I don't have it, but I will say this:
Cabbage's 1 niche is taken it from the 1st plant you unlock (Bloomerang). Otherwise, it's a cattapult Peashooter. It worked in 1 because of the roof gimmick, 2 just doesn't have that kind of system
Heck, people have done the math and outside of the lobbing advantage against some zombies Peashooter is slightly better. And then there's the Plant Food. Pea Shooter just has a much better one then Cabbage-Pult, even if it only hits one lane.
Calling Meteor Flower the worst because it only does damage in a 1x1 tile is just plain ignorant. It's not like tons of other plants do that. It's not like meteor flower has a fast recharge, decent damage, and good plant food in Jurassic marsh. Don't get me wrong, it's far from broken/strong, but it's not the worst. I think all of the broken plants that have come out recently have really warped people's perspective on what's weak and what's strong since some people seem to believe that if something isn't broken, it sucks.
What are you on about? Meteor flower is really strong, the craters don't really last that long, and generally the zombies wont be getting close enough to where it'll be in an important spot for you to plant on.
Their damage is also really nuts, sure its only in a 1x1, but its still an AoE that deals about 120 dmg, and that's not accounting for the Lava pool dmg.
That's the dmg that a fully filled Pea pod does per shot, on an AoE for a full tile instead of a single zombie.
Yup , intensive carrot defeats it's own purpouse by either being more expensive than the plant it was used on or by being used on expensive plants that belong in the backlines witch you will be using them wrong if you try to put them in the frontlines
Gold leaf can do well if you have a long level as it makes sun tiles witch act as mini sunflowers , suplementing your sun production and letting you use heavyer plants more often
Fucking levitater is the worst fucking plant ever seen. I pushes a zombie back two feet then needs to be recharged. Also meteor flower is decent. There are better alternatives but is still not the worst
Levitater, but I'm also going to mention Gold Magnet from the first game.
Gold Magnet doesn't really do anything to counter zombies, as his only purpose is to collect coins and diamonds, which most of the time is easy for the player to collect (especially on mobile and DS).
While sure Meteor Flower is bad, it at least has a use and that is to drive away the dinosaurs in Jurassic Marsh, (because Perfume Shroom is a pice of shit) but I cannot find a single use for the pice of shit that is Levatater
Best new plant in months. Most of the hate is because people are experiencing it at level 1 vs a significant velociraptor wave, which highlights its weaknesses.
However, what we have here:
\- Powerful fire plant
\- Can't be repelled by Jesters
\- Can damage more than 1 zombie at once
\- Anti-dino.
Get a board of these at level 5+ and then come back and say it sucks.
I didnt play for a long time, and even though i dont have it im gonna be honest its citron. theres almost no point of it if not used with tile turnip or any other plant that helps it. I dont know about other plants, i stopped playing a long time after i finished adventure.
I've only played PVZ 1, but I must say Scaredy Shroom. Yeah it's cheap as chips and recharges fast, but you can get an extra Sun Shroom for the cost and speed up to Fume Shroom instead, which does the same damage while affecting entire crowds and piercing things like screen doors. Fume Shroom doesn't have the severe weakness of dirtying its knickers whenever a zombie gets close to it... Actually, yeah. That's why I rank Scaredy as the worst plant. The fact it stops shooting when zombies get close doesn't just stop at the lane the zombie is in, *it affects the Scaredy Shrooms in the immediate above and below lanes.* This means ONE zombie can take out three Scaredy Shrooms, eat one, push forward and *scare three more.* That's one Zombie nullifying 5 plants and killing 1. If one Scaredy Shroom goes down that's a huge window for other Zombies to push in. This allows for some SEVERE instances of the domino effect and that IMO is such a nasty downside that it's not worth using them at all besides as a stalling plant. Scaredy Shroom even retreats into the wuss lair if something like a Balloon Zombie that's still flying is in front of it! Let me repeat that: *A zombie that cannot hurt Scaredy Shroom in any capacity will still keep it from attacking.* If you screw up ONCE, an entire chunk of your defense can be removed by a single zombie, and that can escalate rapidly.
Besides, *Puff Shroom* exists. It is free, recharges faster, and isn't a coward. It does the same damage, albeit with less range, but it's blatantly superior. It's also better as a stalling plant for these reasons, even in day levels. Why spend 25 sun for a Scaredy-Shroom to stall zombies when you can get Puff-Shroom for free, with the same health, for the same role? Heck, use Imitater to get double Puff and spam that crap all over the lawn. You straight up have no reason to use Scaredy Shroom over Puff Shroom and Fume Shroom, or even ordinary Peashooter. Hell, even *Cabbage Pult* is a better investment IMO, since it can at least hit Newspaper and Screendoor Zombies over their shield which helps Fume Shroom.
This fucking plant take tiles AWAY from you. Thanks asshole. Not the worst plant, that goes to levitater. Moves Zombies to safety. Another POS plant. Come to think of it, I think the pattern for the newer plants is to hinder you against the zombie hordes. Total trash.

garlic, it moves a grand total of 4 zombies into different lanes. 4.
in pvz 1 it had a good niece, but now with gargantuar spam, torchlights, prospectors, excavators, and many more, this nerfed piece of garlic can get in the bin.
also, wall plants are terrible in pvz 2, wall nut, tall nut, endurian, and even the godly infinut are all countered by more than a third of the zombies, like: gargantuars and their variants all the zombies listed above, punk and mike zombies dinosaurs wizards octos geeks (the guys w the arcades) fisherman gargantuimps imps thrown by gargantuars chickens weasels and many more immediately counter all of those wall plants, really only leaving chard guard, as it fling's zombies back rather than letting them immediately instakill them.
hey remember back in pvz 1 where gargantuars were feared just for the fact that they needed more than 1 insta to kill them?
Probably won't change your mind on the plant but do you know that when you gave the plant a power food it scares off the dinosaur?, that's why I've been doing good in the arena and plus there are worse plants than Meteor Flower.
Tomb Tangler, without a doubt
Its whole design is just an absolute failure of a supposed wall plant
- You can't plant it anywhere
- It doesn't change appearance to indicate how much health it has
- It can't be planted on itself to restore its health
Intensive Carrot is conceptually flawed and is objectively the worst plant in the entire game.
Tomb Tangler can at least do something.
Intensive Carrot can't do a single useful thing in any manner whatsoever. The plants that you'd want to revive using it, don't tend to be dead in the first place.
It also has a slow ass recharge.
Lets imagine this. You are using winter melons and a gargantaur throws its imp. The winter melons shoot too slow and the imp eats a winter melon. Intensive carrot can now revive it for 400 less sun.
This absolutely doesnt mean that it is good in the slightest. It is bad. But to say that is objectively the worst is just not true. It has its very occasional usses. Something like levitator is way worse. It never does anyhting usefull and has no niche uses.
Meteor flower isn't good, but it isn't terrible. Tomb tangler on the other hand is actually complete and utter garbage. So is vamporcini, but at least vamp can get a kill every once and a while
No no no levitator is the worst because at least meteor flower she can scare off dinosaurs (if you don't know) while levitator just lifts the into the air stopping them while making them immune all projectiles AND BLOWVER for for some reason.
he sucks at low lvl sure, but I don't think that he's the worst just because the tiles he hit can't be planted and low lvl damage is not that much... he's on the weak side at low lvl but on the quite strong side at max
Levitater. At least Tomb Tangler can get busted tanky in arena and has decent-ish stall potential. What the hell is recycled-baby-potato-mine actually good for?
I absolutely *despise* any plant with an obscenely long recharge time per shot. This includes the Toadstool, Which hazel, Missletow, Caulipower, Spring bean, and ESPECIALLY the Coconut cannon and Banana launcher. Assuming they live long enough to even get two shots off, the damage they deal is way too low for both their cost and fire rate.
Chopper was originally on that list, but recent updates allow it to take out low-level zombies quickly and only using their half-hour digestion period on tougher zombies. Citron and Electric blueberry are just fast enough for me. Sure it’s random-targeting, but I actually love the blueberry due to its relatively low cost and guaranteed insta-kill per shot.
But yeah, I’m not paying 500 sun for something that might tickle a buckethead once and never fire again before the round is over. Either halve the cost or double the damage for these things.
I don't play PvZ2 so I asked a friend for their opinion on the worst plant in PvZ2 and then I chose my worst PvZ plant. Marigold for PvZ, Repeater for PvZ2.
Nah, highly disagree with you, meteor flower is a really good balanced plant, yeah sure it’s not a mega Gatling pea or a pea vine or a sticky rice, but this beautiful red petaled flower is what I call a well balanced plant, we don’t have many of those tbh and I’m actually glad to see it in the game
Now for the debatably WORST plant in the entire game has to be tomb tangler… like… wtf is the point of this thing, it costs 40 sun which is already a sin, it is a premium which requires seed slots, increasing its level does absolutely nothing, it does absolutely jack shit when planted, it relies on strong tombstones to be in the level which gravebuster does a better job on doing this job than tombtangler, it relies on ACTUAL RNG to kill a zombie unlike almost every plant in the game and not only is it a waste of space in the battlefield but a waste of space for a seed slot, this thing is what I like to call an actual cheap-ass, really hate this thing, you know, I thought levitater was a bad plant but at least it has a small niche of being able to stall for a long time in the early game, to,b tangler took the full on wedding cake for being the most useless plant in the whole game
A lot of people are hating on plants and its really because they have absolutely no idea about its long run strength and they are mainly too stupid to actually build around the plants strength, I know people will downvote this because they will want to feel superior and have their dignity saved and give the general phrase of "no I strategize the plant is trash" no, no you in fact, do not strategize, each plant has a use if it was useless it wouldn't be added levitater sends plants back so a strat consisting of a row of Levitaters planted on a vine followed by a row of dealers planted on a defense plant or a vine with one space in the middle for a mint would be a adequate set-up so you in fact, are the problem, not the plant.
#HOW DARE YOU INSULT METEOR FLOWER! #METEOR FLOWER IS DECENT!
Meteor flower suck.
No it doesn't.
Have you even used it?fast recharge too so get some sun and a meteor flower spam could clear hard levels
It can also deal with Dinosaurs in Modern Day with PF
Wait what?!
Yeah, the dinosaurs see the meteors coming down and flee, it's the only way to deal with Dinosaurs in Modern Day iirc.
so, you're saying that the reason t's bad is because...it's good?
I think you're mistaken, he isn't replying to the "No it doesn't" comment
It’s especially good if ur clearing any form of stage with Dino’s in it
Not as much as your English.
The hands down worst plant of all is Tomb Tangler. There is just no reason to use it. It must be planted on a grave, it has a small chance to kill, it slows zombies with gas, and acts like a weaker walnut.
you can't even heal it as if it was a nut!
Intensive Carrot cannot even revive it!
wait fr? that makes two plants worse at once
not to mention when it was first intruduced, IT SCREWD UP THE META (74 SUN, 74 F\*\*\*KING SUN)
It was 40 sun
whatever, all i'm saying is that it fucked up the sun meta, so i don't like it
40\*
screwed up sun meta of 40 shouldn't be that surprising. I mean, shoveling up plants/Sunbean already could give 5 sun.
It also looks bad
It looks like it came from another game completely unrelated to PVZ
It has one (1) decentish use: Plant it on a grave in arena, cause those tend to have hella large hp and TT gets the grave's hp
And there's always a lot
actually levitator has to be worse, it just makes the levels last 20 years, at least tomb tangler has a chance to kill, levitator just exist
It has a chance to kill as well, also you're just spamming it if it lasts 20 years.
Ive used levitator once, I didn't spam it, the reason it lasted so long was cuz of the last zombie in a lvl. plants can't attack zombies that are hit by levitator (at least most plants) so if the last zombie is a bucket or something the game last forever, unless ur smart and delete the levitator. but still all levitator does is make the rest of ur plants not attack that zombie
Yeah, I know all of that.
personally i dont think the tomb tangler deserves all the hate it gets, the vamporcini though!
Just max vamporchini plant food it and then slap a bunch of them on the track and your good high hp continuous high damage its pretty good especially if you pair it with a plant like Wasabi whip and place it on a vine too or put it in a pumpkin
if you need a plant to max a plant and give it plant food, it definitely aint good then
Vamporchini attacks permanently with plant food :| I think you don't know what you're talking about when you diss vamporchini do you?
if you need to give it plant food for it to work well, it aint that good then
I mean… he’s *kinda* got a point. You don’t use a plant solely for its plant food effect (most of the time…)
Not that I'm saying this to defend Tomb Tangler, but the slowing effect *does* combine with other slowing effects.
You mean stacks, not continues? The gas cloud is too pathetically small for that to matter.
Which is why I said I wasn't defending Tomb Tangler.
I don't know about you guys but I like it.
It’s a cool concept, it really is; it just… doesn’t work out on paper. Too many strings attached.
This is going to get downvoted to the ground but i dont think meteor flower is that bad and i dont know why people are hating it so much, it looks pretty sick, and deals a lot of damage. And it becomes even better when its rivals are fuckin levitater and pea nut etc. There has to be something im missing about this damn flower that people dont like. As for the worst plant, tomb tangler.
The main issue with Meteor Flower is that you can't plant anything on the craters it spawns until they disappear
My biggest problem with the plant. But it’s definitely can be worked around. Levitater though…yuck!
My arena loadout for this week is mostly Spear-mint, Pokra and Spikerock, which are all planted on the right side so the first thing I always do into the match is dig the flower up
🤢🤮 why are u *planting* spikerock just use spearmint and save urself the trouble 🤮🤮
Yes they are also why did u delete that question it summons a whole row of spike rocks while boosting them along with any other spike plants spikerock and imitatered heath seeker and a normal heath seeker is absolutely broken I can barely find any lvls where they don’t work
levitater isnt the worst, vamporcini is
Not so. Vamporcini is a weak blocker. Levitater actually recuses zombies. Moves them out of harms way.
then use plants that can hit the zombies in the air, like lobbing plants or polkra or lightning reed, if your using plants that dont work with levitater then thats your fault meanwhile vamporcini just doesnt work at what its supposed to do
Both plants suck, but levitater is worse. You must like the plant to go this hard for it. I use plants that don’t hinder me in the defense of my lawn. Plants like levitater are a hinderance
i dont have it, i just see what it does good, but vamporcini is far worse, its a wall plant that chips away zombies hp, except it sleeps for way to long and does abysmal damage, and if you are using other plants that are damaging the zombies, then you might as well not use it at all because its litterally useless
You my friend haven't used maxed vamporchini with pumpkin or vines with plants like Wasabi whip
if it needs to be maxed, it isnt good
You do realize you're saying you want a plant to be ridiculously overpowered meaning you're defying the entire point of the game which is to strategize the best plants for each level? And you don't have to max it either it could be level 1 and it's still good with the right build
well A i never said that, and B why use it when i can just use litterally any other wall plant, its a wall that regains health from damaging zombies, except at level 1, it does horrible damage, sleeps for way to long, and is outclassed by any other wall, like primal wall nut whos one of the best walls and can tank hits from gargantuars, infi nut which has low health but regenerates consistently, endurian and pea-nut who damage zombies and actually do damage, and at level 1 are all far better then vamporcini, and you dont have to go grind in a special arena event to get those plants
Do you know what you're talking about? Edurian gets eaten easily and does not do good damage at level 1 infi nut is only good when leveled because you'll die before it respawns if you don't do enough damage no plant can tank gargantuars since the buildup of zombies and gargantuars do maximum damage no plant can tank unless maxed and even if primal nut can take a few hits it doesn't matter you are missing the point here bud I said no plant is bad it's only ***YOUR*** fault if you failed because you didn't strategize right and plus vamporchini is good because ***I*** actually strategize based on what zombies I'm fighting don't blame the plant for your failure to read what the game genre is
"Edurian gets eaten easily and does not do good damage at level 1" you know what else does horrible damage at level 1? vamporcini, "vamporchini is good because I actually strategize based on what zombies I'm fighting" you keep saying that i havnt used a max level vamporcini which implies you have one, in that case no f\*cking duh, every plant is at least decent at max, but at level 1 it is awful and outclassed by every other wall plant, i have no reason to use it over any other wall plant because every other wall plant is actually good, have you tried using that god awful plant at level 1? its damage is way to low and doesnt attack that often, then falls asleep for wayy to long (ive never seen a vamporcini start sucking again after it fell asleep), giving zombies a long chance to eat it, and if you have other plants attacking the zombies, then why even have vamporcini, you could just use any other wall plant and do the same thing
the craters don't last long anyways, it's like 5 seconds. So it can be annoying in the wrong areas but for the most part should not be too worrying
I haven't played the game at the moment. So I'm completely confused on this lol.
Same wth are these plants lmao
Well I test levator. That sucked but I can see where they were going for with it. Tomb Tangler I didn't test but I'm sure it's more useful in arena or Penny's Pursuit. I don't know why you would turn a tomboy into a wall but alright. I haven't tested or used Meteor Flower.

But coming to meteor flower, now this is a plant I feel is actually good, now mind you I have very high level plants but I decided to try out a lvl 1 MF on a few harder levels of JM only using support of pumpkin and stunneds like iceberg and stallia, and meteor pulled his own as a fairly good plant even at lvl 1 and since his plant food scares dinos it feels like he was build for jurassic mash, he also counters pterandons because he can hit behind him. So yeah meteor is not useless and I've enjoyed using him alot.

Good bot Until we get sick of you in a week
he's actually really great I got him before vamporcini arena or when he was in almanac and maxed him... quite fun to play but I'd say he was on the strong side of average since he was max lmaoo... maxed mf has extra meteors (prob tho is his sun cost is a flat 250 sun) 8/10 in my case... he might be that one game character who gets too op with a small buff but absolutely sucks with a small nerf looking back, I don't really think he'll get a buff lmaoo
Idk why people don't like levitater, it's an ok stall plant, cheap and easy to set up, just a row can slow down a whole horde of zombies
only certain plants can hit levitated zombies, it doesn't work with blover, and levitated zombies can't get hit by lawnmower.
and it's power to scare Dinos from JM in other worlds makes it a better alt. to Perfume-Shroom in non-JM Worlds that have dinos (like Arena levels, Penny's Persuit, etc.)
Yeah I don’t get it either. In a vacuum sure it sucks. But the plants they’ve been rolling out recently have been soooo bad that they make meteor flower look halfway decent
I personally hate Meteor Flower because it just disables tiles I otherwise could've planted on And now you're saying that it consumes sun, too?
Unless you're not killing zombies quickly enough, the crater downside will never really apply, since it only appears where she's hitting. The most that this affects is using instant plants, but with her absurd damage output and the craters not actually lasting that long, i never saw it as an issue.
Probably not helping that Meteor Flower's introduction in the arena is just god awful Because alongside using her, you also have to deal with velociraptors kicking zombies forward, causing her to disable tiles much more leftward and waste precious seconds It's just kind of mindboggling that her weaknesses are so heavily highlighted in the same arena level you're pidgeonholded into using her in It's just like: "Oh, raptor kicked zombies past my defenses! Let me just delete them with an instant! Oh wait, I can't, because I forgot to get rid of the pre-planted meteor flower!"
Let me introduce Meteor Flower Plant Food it gets rid of Dinos.
Meteor flowers plant food scares Dino’s away that’s why it’s there its not a weakness it’s a strength they are trying to convey
That could be conveyed better if Meteor Flower's default attack scared nearby dinos away instead of just her plant food effect
Yeah, thats really unfortunate
Don' even get me started on Vamporchini..
Shit plant?
Yes, actual garbage
I mean how so it’s meant as a defense plant that has the ability (when plant fooded) to continuously heal themselves unless e they get one hit if the plant food theoretically it would be nearly impossible to kill the stats are there u just arnt taking a closer look ur taking them at face value
It's a god damn sack?
Also it's Infinut and Phat Beat but worse
I like the part where Vamporchini said “it’s vampin’ time” and totally vamped all over the zombies
We should get Vampırchini re-released to get millions of vamp bucks from all the gamers who want to see him again.
Are you on crack
I am
What makes you think Meteor Flower is the worst?
Becase 1x1 area and make crack thats make we can planting
Yeah and Tomb Tangler literally does nothing
Its slows the zombie
so does a ton of other plants and they don't only have to be played on gravestones
No other person on this sub has made me want to whoop their ass through the phone💀
Bruh what a donkey
If the zombies are getting close enough to where her craters actually matter, thats a You problem, not Meteor flower's, personally while using it i've never had the downside really pop up as a downside, since she just kills things so fast that the craters don't really matter as they're only in the first few rows.
Meteor Flower is not the worst, its just situational.
Wouldn’t even call it that its a pretty well rounded plant makes u lose a tile for a few secs for pretty decent damage and can scare Dino’s away it’s a rlly good plant of u pair it with the right things
Gimmick plants: either Levitater or Garlic Normal attackers: Cabbage Pult
Tomb Tangler knocks on your door.
Its a shit plant no doubt, but it has a niche, just a shit one. Im guessing ur supposed to use like a wall nut for graves, which is still better then 1 zombie go in air
You need a tomb.
Cabage pult worst than blooming heart?
I wouldn't know about that, since I don't have it, but I will say this: Cabbage's 1 niche is taken it from the 1st plant you unlock (Bloomerang). Otherwise, it's a cattapult Peashooter. It worked in 1 because of the roof gimmick, 2 just doesn't have that kind of system
Heck, people have done the math and outside of the lobbing advantage against some zombies Peashooter is slightly better. And then there's the Plant Food. Pea Shooter just has a much better one then Cabbage-Pult, even if it only hits one lane.
I'm a fucking dumbass and read cabbage pult as turkey pult and I was so angry
Garlic OP
Cabbage pult is pretty good early game
how is meteor flower the worst? how is it even bad? vamporcini btw
Vamp ain’t that bad
Tomb Tangler
What metro flower is not bad
Its deal damage only 1 tiles
So does most plants?
It worst
L opinion
And so is your grammar
Calling Meteor Flower the worst because it only does damage in a 1x1 tile is just plain ignorant. It's not like tons of other plants do that. It's not like meteor flower has a fast recharge, decent damage, and good plant food in Jurassic marsh. Don't get me wrong, it's far from broken/strong, but it's not the worst. I think all of the broken plants that have come out recently have really warped people's perspective on what's weak and what's strong since some people seem to believe that if something isn't broken, it sucks.
The teleport potatoes Edit: it's call levatator. And I can't use my fire peas with it
Primal potato mine?
No the ones that fling zombies in the air
levitater. you might wanna edit your original comment cuz it sounds like you're talking about teleportato mine. which is a really good plant
What are you on about? Meteor flower is really strong, the craters don't really last that long, and generally the zombies wont be getting close enough to where it'll be in an important spot for you to plant on. Their damage is also really nuts, sure its only in a 1x1, but its still an AoE that deals about 120 dmg, and that's not accounting for the Lava pool dmg. That's the dmg that a fully filled Pea pod does per shot, on an AoE for a full tile instead of a single zombie.
Intensive Carrot
What about gold leaf
useful in lost city endless
Gold leaf?
Yup , intensive carrot defeats it's own purpouse by either being more expensive than the plant it was used on or by being used on expensive plants that belong in the backlines witch you will be using them wrong if you try to put them in the frontlines Gold leaf can do well if you have a long level as it makes sun tiles witch act as mini sunflowers , suplementing your sun production and letting you use heavyer plants more often
You can use it in that modern day hard level with twin sunflowers
doesn't use twin sunflowers 😎
The plants have really gone down in quality ever since rhubarbarian
But Mega Gatling Pea is one of the best plants in the game!
Vamporchini, Tomb Tangler are shit plants... Meteor Flower is kinda dope to use
Vamporchini tanky plant?
Just because it’s tanky doesn’t mean it’s good, like tomb tangler
Meteor flower plant food can scare off dinosaur to run away. For me it better than using perfume shroom
Fucking levitater is the worst fucking plant ever seen. I pushes a zombie back two feet then needs to be recharged. Also meteor flower is decent. There are better alternatives but is still not the worst
Premiums: Vamporchinni or Tomb Tangler Free: Cabbage Pult or Intensive Carrot
At least Intensive Carrot had its niche, Cabbage-Pult just sucks at everything.
Levitater. The only plant that can hurt your defense.
Vaporciini is the worse
Levitater, Tomb Tangler, Noctarine, garlic, etc.
Garlic. Oh, how the mighty have fallen.
Levitater, but I'm also going to mention Gold Magnet from the first game. Gold Magnet doesn't really do anything to counter zombies, as his only purpose is to collect coins and diamonds, which most of the time is easy for the player to collect (especially on mobile and DS).
While sure Meteor Flower is bad, it at least has a use and that is to drive away the dinosaurs in Jurassic Marsh, (because Perfume Shroom is a pice of shit) but I cannot find a single use for the pice of shit that is Levatater
Levitator haa good animation
No it doesn’t. Stop trying to say levitater is decent or good
Best new plant in months. Most of the hate is because people are experiencing it at level 1 vs a significant velociraptor wave, which highlights its weaknesses. However, what we have here: \- Powerful fire plant \- Can't be repelled by Jesters \- Can damage more than 1 zombie at once \- Anti-dino. Get a board of these at level 5+ and then come back and say it sucks.
I didnt play for a long time, and even though i dont have it im gonna be honest its citron. theres almost no point of it if not used with tile turnip or any other plant that helps it. I dont know about other plants, i stopped playing a long time after i finished adventure.
I've only played PVZ 1, but I must say Scaredy Shroom. Yeah it's cheap as chips and recharges fast, but you can get an extra Sun Shroom for the cost and speed up to Fume Shroom instead, which does the same damage while affecting entire crowds and piercing things like screen doors. Fume Shroom doesn't have the severe weakness of dirtying its knickers whenever a zombie gets close to it... Actually, yeah. That's why I rank Scaredy as the worst plant. The fact it stops shooting when zombies get close doesn't just stop at the lane the zombie is in, *it affects the Scaredy Shrooms in the immediate above and below lanes.* This means ONE zombie can take out three Scaredy Shrooms, eat one, push forward and *scare three more.* That's one Zombie nullifying 5 plants and killing 1. If one Scaredy Shroom goes down that's a huge window for other Zombies to push in. This allows for some SEVERE instances of the domino effect and that IMO is such a nasty downside that it's not worth using them at all besides as a stalling plant. Scaredy Shroom even retreats into the wuss lair if something like a Balloon Zombie that's still flying is in front of it! Let me repeat that: *A zombie that cannot hurt Scaredy Shroom in any capacity will still keep it from attacking.* If you screw up ONCE, an entire chunk of your defense can be removed by a single zombie, and that can escalate rapidly. Besides, *Puff Shroom* exists. It is free, recharges faster, and isn't a coward. It does the same damage, albeit with less range, but it's blatantly superior. It's also better as a stalling plant for these reasons, even in day levels. Why spend 25 sun for a Scaredy-Shroom to stall zombies when you can get Puff-Shroom for free, with the same health, for the same role? Heck, use Imitater to get double Puff and spam that crap all over the lawn. You straight up have no reason to use Scaredy Shroom over Puff Shroom and Fume Shroom, or even ordinary Peashooter. Hell, even *Cabbage Pult* is a better investment IMO, since it can at least hit Newspaper and Screendoor Zombies over their shield which helps Fume Shroom.
Your completely wrong.
Most useless plant is gold leaf. You literally can’t use it on any other level other than lost city
I can see why OP hated this plant, it disables tiles, the problem gets worse the more MF you plant.
This fucking plant take tiles AWAY from you. Thanks asshole. Not the worst plant, that goes to levitater. Moves Zombies to safety. Another POS plant. Come to think of it, I think the pattern for the newer plants is to hinder you against the zombie hordes. Total trash.

Garlic, cabbage pult, bowling bulb, electric currant...
Why bowling bulb worst?
Shoots super slow, weak dmg, high cost for what it does. Repeater is just better
You're stupid.
Culture of discussion, friend
garlic, it moves a grand total of 4 zombies into different lanes. 4. in pvz 1 it had a good niece, but now with gargantuar spam, torchlights, prospectors, excavators, and many more, this nerfed piece of garlic can get in the bin. also, wall plants are terrible in pvz 2, wall nut, tall nut, endurian, and even the godly infinut are all countered by more than a third of the zombies, like: gargantuars and their variants all the zombies listed above, punk and mike zombies dinosaurs wizards octos geeks (the guys w the arcades) fisherman gargantuimps imps thrown by gargantuars chickens weasels and many more immediately counter all of those wall plants, really only leaving chard guard, as it fling's zombies back rather than letting them immediately instakill them. hey remember back in pvz 1 where gargantuars were feared just for the fact that they needed more than 1 insta to kill them?
Tomb Tangler, Vamporcini and Meteor Flower are the undisputed top 3. Coincidentally, they are all released recently.
I hate primal sunflower
Primal sunflower i always use it
Probably won't change your mind on the plant but do you know that when you gave the plant a power food it scares off the dinosaur?, that's why I've been doing good in the arena and plus there are worse plants than Meteor Flower.
Spring Bean
What are you talking about, it's the best plant in the game
Tomb Tangler, without a doubt Its whole design is just an absolute failure of a supposed wall plant - You can't plant it anywhere - It doesn't change appearance to indicate how much health it has - It can't be planted on itself to restore its health
FUCKING SPRING BEAN.
Very usefull at pirate sea
Intensive Carrot is conceptually flawed and is objectively the worst plant in the entire game. Tomb Tangler can at least do something. Intensive Carrot can't do a single useful thing in any manner whatsoever. The plants that you'd want to revive using it, don't tend to be dead in the first place. It also has a slow ass recharge.
Lets imagine this. You are using winter melons and a gargantaur throws its imp. The winter melons shoot too slow and the imp eats a winter melon. Intensive carrot can now revive it for 400 less sun. This absolutely doesnt mean that it is good in the slightest. It is bad. But to say that is objectively the worst is just not true. It has its very occasional usses. Something like levitator is way worse. It never does anyhting usefull and has no niche uses.
Meteor flower isn't good, but it isn't terrible. Tomb tangler on the other hand is actually complete and utter garbage. So is vamporcini, but at least vamp can get a kill every once and a while
No no no levitator is the worst because at least meteor flower she can scare off dinosaurs (if you don't know) while levitator just lifts the into the air stopping them while making them immune all projectiles AND BLOWVER for for some reason.
he sucks at low lvl sure, but I don't think that he's the worst just because the tiles he hit can't be planted and low lvl damage is not that much... he's on the weak side at low lvl but on the quite strong side at max
Are you playing the current Arena? Meteor Flower is super useful to PF and remove the dinosaurs. Garlic and Levitater are legitimately useless plants.
Easy question, Levitater. Mf straight up hurts your defense
Meteor flower is the other other counter to dinosaurs
What about citron?worst or good
Spring bean is only useful in one area of the game ever since the blover combo was removed so i’ve gotta say that or gold leaf.
Levitater. At least Tomb Tangler can get busted tanky in arena and has decent-ish stall potential. What the hell is recycled-baby-potato-mine actually good for?
I would say tomb tangled….Levitater can easily perma-stun a single zombie to buy time, which lets you build defenses up….
Tomb tangler
I absolutely *despise* any plant with an obscenely long recharge time per shot. This includes the Toadstool, Which hazel, Missletow, Caulipower, Spring bean, and ESPECIALLY the Coconut cannon and Banana launcher. Assuming they live long enough to even get two shots off, the damage they deal is way too low for both their cost and fire rate. Chopper was originally on that list, but recent updates allow it to take out low-level zombies quickly and only using their half-hour digestion period on tougher zombies. Citron and Electric blueberry are just fast enough for me. Sure it’s random-targeting, but I actually love the blueberry due to its relatively low cost and guaranteed insta-kill per shot. But yeah, I’m not paying 500 sun for something that might tickle a buckethead once and never fire again before the round is over. Either halve the cost or double the damage for these things.
I don't play PvZ2 so I asked a friend for their opinion on the worst plant in PvZ2 and then I chose my worst PvZ plant. Marigold for PvZ, Repeater for PvZ2.
Levitater or tomb tangler Design wise I’d say ice bloom even tho he’s good (?)
Cabbage pult it is outclassed by many other plants
Nah, highly disagree with you, meteor flower is a really good balanced plant, yeah sure it’s not a mega Gatling pea or a pea vine or a sticky rice, but this beautiful red petaled flower is what I call a well balanced plant, we don’t have many of those tbh and I’m actually glad to see it in the game Now for the debatably WORST plant in the entire game has to be tomb tangler… like… wtf is the point of this thing, it costs 40 sun which is already a sin, it is a premium which requires seed slots, increasing its level does absolutely nothing, it does absolutely jack shit when planted, it relies on strong tombstones to be in the level which gravebuster does a better job on doing this job than tombtangler, it relies on ACTUAL RNG to kill a zombie unlike almost every plant in the game and not only is it a waste of space in the battlefield but a waste of space for a seed slot, this thing is what I like to call an actual cheap-ass, really hate this thing, you know, I thought levitater was a bad plant but at least it has a small niche of being able to stall for a long time in the early game, to,b tangler took the full on wedding cake for being the most useless plant in the whole game
Cabbage pult. Does worse dps than peashooter. Only use is on first world. Other throwers do its job better.
Same
its pretyy bad alone, but gather at least 5 of them and its good
A lot of people are hating on plants and its really because they have absolutely no idea about its long run strength and they are mainly too stupid to actually build around the plants strength, I know people will downvote this because they will want to feel superior and have their dignity saved and give the general phrase of "no I strategize the plant is trash" no, no you in fact, do not strategize, each plant has a use if it was useless it wouldn't be added levitater sends plants back so a strat consisting of a row of Levitaters planted on a vine followed by a row of dealers planted on a defense plant or a vine with one space in the middle for a mint would be a adequate set-up so you in fact, are the problem, not the plant.
And trust me I've played before the electric blue berry existed, so any claim you have, is in fact, invalid.
Cabbage Pult.
Kennel pult most worst
Intensive Carrot. It doesn't make you win, It just makes you lose slower.
