I don’t want to be biased here, but your tier list is based more on how much you played and liked the characters and not really on how much skill it takes to play them.
Let's gooo e citron and zen cactus at the top. Disco chomper at the top, YEEEEH. My favourite plants from their classes. It was painful to max toxic citron the damage is so bad, my my highest kill game with him was 24 I think on turf, managed to get on the podium with most kills lol.
if you see a good marine biologist, you will absolutely get curbstomped because someone who is good at marine biologist will dominate a lobby easily Also yeti while not the strongest character can be an absolute nightmare cheeselord to face and can be busted in the right hands
if we're talking max value, every projectile character should be near the top, hitting directs with engineers as opposed to splash us night and day difference. But if this list is about skill ceiling (which ut probably is), its pretty accurate
going to write down my thoughts on character placements as i watch through this (FYI I think chomper is a terrible class and the "run in>get 1 swallow>instanty fucking die" playstyle or just spammiing goop from a roof for your team to get free kills is the best way to play him since that is genuinely ALL he's good for) Lobotamy tier: yeah all of those are really accurate, I would've maybe put most the chompers in there too because you genuinely dont even need to try with any of them thanks to goop's generous splash radius stun at any distance like it genuinely feels like i booted up overwatch by mistake instead of pvz at times ._. but aside from that 0 complaints Easy tier: toxic citron should probably be higher because his inability to do literally anything but steal assist master, but ok ive been wanting to rant on this for a while ive always found detonator characters really inconsistent (like I'll fire a shot as electro pea, and when i press shoot ONCE it immediatly detonates and fires another shot at the same time) idk if thats a visual bug or im just terrible and cant time for the life of me, but i do recognise there is a TINY amount of skill involved with detonators Medium: -fat soldier- mechanic is such a stupid easy character, swapping soldiers vertical mobility for on demand speed and a stun (or 3 stuns for chompers or splash characters up close) is not okay lmao Semi: I disagree with party corn being here when he's about the same/is a direct upgrade from reg corn, but what you briefly mentioned for chemist with luck playing a role into a characters required effort I think is also a pretty big part of toxic brainz, aka I'm sick of the enemy gamer being rewarded for my team having parkinsons, meanwhile when i play him i get gunned down frame 1 every time Hard: armor chomper is the only chomper i dont mind being this high up ..even then he's still a chomper and still has goop to win fights for free as long as you dont mind the horrendous movement speed (HOW first of all????) but why is scuba here he is just as braindead easy as toxic pea Extreme: disco chomper is so fundamentally flawed you're straight up better off ignoring his gimmick entirely (im not sugarcoating this I have tried and tried and TRIEDDDD to make him work, but every time i would've gotten the same ammount of kills but faster if i just burrowed onto the point over and over instead of trying to be sneaky picking off (barely) any lone targets for 7 minutes only to instantly die trying to use that 50% armor anyway:]]]]] genuine worst character in the game because his concept alone is dogshit) I used to be a huge alien flower hater until I realised you're supposed to LAND DIRECT SHOTS instead of laying down spores in one spot as a trap, absolutely love her now but honestly she doesnt take too much effort beyond hitting those pretty fast shots so I'd probably move her down to medium/semi tier Torch/Nec/Goat: I'm assuming this list is mainly when playing solo, which yea fair enough placement then (nec rose should probably be lower because Rose but oh well), but with co-ordinated friends oh dear god these three are not okay I don't see how zen cactus is any more complicated than the other accuracy cacti other than the higher damage with lower ammo (which you can just intentionally shoot the floor out of combat to get to the higher ramp-up and not deal with the 20 damage low lows) FINALLY SOMEONE SEEING ELECTRO CITRONS POTENTIAL🙏
Nec Rose in top tier rlly doesnt make sense imo, her being a rose alone makes her rlly easy to play as you can j bum off the homing at mid range and easily escape w enigma/lotus when pressured up close but also its nec rose... one of the most braindead characters in the game. idk tho j my opinion
Alien Flower is low-key semi easy character, honestly easier then park ranger, with consistent gameplay and higher damage. Aiming isn’t even hard with this character, the bullets size is crazy. Not much skill involved.
Law pea at the top is so accurate, took me ages to get used to him, easily the hardest character to learn for me, but he and agent pea are kinda in the same boat so it was worth it
To be honest camo ranger should be higher unlike pirates this character does have damage drop off which is like why for a sniper plus he doesn't rack up good burst damage for initial hits
I mean, with Law Pea you still have to aim. You don't just hover the head then spam while stopping your aim. If you want to use Law Pea, you need to aim and shoot fast at the same time which is actually pretty difficult. The tryna shoot fast can really mess up your aim. Aiming is extra important with Law Pea too since you can't afford to miss shots or else you'll have to reload mid-fight Agent Pea is more forgiving due to more ammo. You can afford to miss shots with Agent Pea. Aiming is also generally easier as the lack of rapidly clicking / rapidly pulling the trigger just generally makes for more consistent/controlled aim
7:00 Disco chomper only needs to swallow 4 people.

Rock Pea should be a lot higher, below painter is a crime.

comparing torchwood to playing tank in overwatch has to be a crime, you can definitely play around a 12 vs 12 much easier as a giant kaiju than a 5v5
if we're talking max value, every projectile character should be near the top, hitting directs with engineers as opposed to splash us night and day difference. But if this list is about skill ceiling (which ut probably is), its pretty accurate
Sunflower class in its entierety suffers from having her entire hitbox be her head you are basically getting critted 100% (also peashoter and chomper)
going to write down my thoughts on character placements as i watch through this (FYI I think chomper is a terrible class and the "run in>get 1 swallow>instanty fucking die" playstyle or just spammiing goop from a roof for your team to get free kills is the best way to play him since that is genuinely ALL he's good for)
Lobotamy tier: yeah all of those are really accurate, I would've maybe put most the chompers in there too because you genuinely dont even need to try with any of them thanks to goop's generous splash radius stun at any distance like it genuinely feels like i booted up overwatch by mistake instead of pvz at times ._.
but aside from that 0 complaints
Easy tier: toxic citron should probably be higher because his inability to do literally anything but steal assist master, but ok ive been wanting to rant on this for a while ive always found detonator characters really inconsistent (like I'll fire a shot as electro pea, and when i press shoot ONCE it immediatly detonates and fires another shot at the same time) idk if thats a visual bug or im just terrible and cant time for the life of me, but i do recognise there is a TINY amount of skill involved with detonators
Medium: -fat soldier- mechanic is such a stupid easy character, swapping soldiers vertical mobility for on demand speed and a stun (or 3 stuns for chompers or splash characters up close) is not okay lmao
Semi: I disagree with party corn being here when he's about the same/is a direct upgrade from reg corn, but what you briefly mentioned for chemist with luck playing a role into a characters required effort I think is also a pretty big part of toxic brainz, aka I'm sick of the enemy gamer being rewarded for my team having parkinsons, meanwhile when i play him i get gunned down frame 1 every time
Hard: armor chomper is the only chomper i dont mind being this high up ..even then he's still a chomper and still has goop to win fights for free as long as you dont mind the horrendous movement speed (HOW first of all????) but why is scuba here he is just as braindead easy as toxic pea
Extreme: disco chomper is so fundamentally flawed you're straight up better off ignoring his gimmick entirely (im not sugarcoating this I have tried and tried and TRIEDDDD to make him work, but every time i would've gotten the same ammount of kills but faster if i just burrowed onto the point over and over instead of trying to be sneaky picking off (barely) any lone targets for 7 minutes only to instantly die trying to use that 50% armor anyway:]]]]] genuine worst character in the game because his concept alone is dogshit)
I used to be a huge alien flower hater until I realised you're supposed to LAND DIRECT SHOTS instead of laying down spores in one spot as a trap, absolutely love her now but honestly she doesnt take too much effort beyond hitting those pretty fast shots so I'd probably move her down to medium/semi tier
Torch/Nec/Goat: I'm assuming this list is mainly when playing solo, which yea fair enough placement then (nec rose should probably be lower because Rose but oh well), but with co-ordinated friends oh dear god these three are not okay
I don't see how zen cactus is any more complicated than the other accuracy cacti other than the higher damage with lower ammo (which you can just intentionally shoot the floor out of combat to get to the higher ramp-up and not deal with the 20 damage low lows)

idk tho j my opinion
Yea the only skill curve is realising u have to stay mid range religiously
I wouldve ranked commando corn higher, its kinda hard to get his meter
yeah i kinda rushed this one
real
thoughts on trying marvel rivals nixly? Since you mentioned you played overwatch?
haven't played it yet
As someone who is bad at the game what is the best way to play SBs?
Alien Flower is low-key semi easy character, honestly easier then park ranger, with consistent gameplay and higher damage. Aiming isn’t even hard with this character, the bullets size is crazy. Not much skill involved.

I think it’s pretty hard to get max potential of disco isn’t that the whole reason people don’t like because it’s to hard to play him.
I deeply apologize I had spoken to soon and now am eating my own words.
To be honest camo ranger should be higher unlike pirates this character does have damage drop off which is like why for a sniper plus he doesn't rack up good burst damage for initial hits
meh i think is agent is harder for law once the crosshair hover the head you just spam but agent you has to aim the shots individually
I mean, with Law Pea you still have to aim. You don't just hover the head then spam while stopping your aim. If you want to use Law Pea, you need to aim and shoot fast at the same time which is actually pretty difficult. The tryna shoot fast can really mess up your aim. Aiming is extra important with Law Pea too since you can't afford to miss shots or else you'll have to reload mid-fight

Fun value tier list when?
Oh it’s nice to see a tier list made by a good player
