I honestly hate this video. Please watch another video of mine instead of this one. Thanks! Original pinned comment: I’ve seen a lot of people criticize my gameplay. I just wanted to leave a comment letting you all know that showcasing 49 plants is a lot of work so most rounds I was just trying to get as many different plants in as possible. For example, when you see Scaredy Shroom in the first couple rows, it’s not because I think that’s a good strategy, it’s because I was specifically getting footage of him hiding from zombies. Stuff like that. Hope that makes sense to everyone!
Quick, Explode-o-nut Ranking. He doesn't really count since he's only in the 2 Wall-Nut Bowling Levels and a power up in the mobile version, but I'm curious on your thoughts. And Big Nut from Wall-Nut Bowling 2, because he's Big Nut.
Haha obviously big nut is just better, but sure. He’s just a glowing rolling red walnut and while the levels he is used in are pretty fun I don’t really like it more or less than the regular wall nut. He’s more unhinged looking in the sequel so that was kinda the main reason I decided to hold off on ranking it. Other than it not being in the almanac
Welcome to the PvZ tier list community, we will now be expecting a tier list of all the plants and zombies from every game in the franchise, every power-up, all the chinese versions, every game and every world/map.
@@Jake.MillerI love plants vs zombies so much that I'm making a fan game of pvz with every plant from every game (even the Chinese version games and fan games) in it and dr zomboss because good and we learn the origin story of pvz. What do you think?
I have just a few complaints! 1. Potato-mine is probably one of the most fun early-game plants to use, and once you're done setting up your sun producers you can still chuck them in front of a pole-vaulter to waste his jump for 25 sun! 2. Another really cool thing about puff-shroom is not only the free damage, but also the free meat-shielding. If you're insane enough, you can stall using puff-shroom for a very long time if you keep spamming it on cooldown. Puff-shroom is the shaggy of PvZ, it only uses 0.1% of his power because otherwise he would destroy reality as we know it. 3. Scaredy shroom is most useful as a backliner. it's better if you place the sun flowers (edit: or rather, sun shrooms) in column 3 and save the space for these early attackers, and later, you can dig them up and put your main defensive plants in their place. 4. Three-peater is a super cool plant to use in lane set-ups. Most people plant their sun flowers in column 1-2 or 3-4, but you could instead plant sunflowers on lanes 1 and 6 while you plant potato mines to defend the early zombies, and lily pads in the first few columns of the pool lanes. Then, as soon as you start being able to afford them, you can place three-peaters on lanes 2 and 4 for maximum efficiency! It's like a scuffed garlic strategy. 5. Bouncing the bungee zombies with umbrella leaf is hilarious, I can't believe you don't love them! 6. Cherry > Jalapeño, fight me.
Nice, I can tell you know much more about being good at the game than I am. I don’t even disagree with you on most of these, I ultimately go crazy on some like threepeater just to make things interesting. Thanks for the tips though! Definitely helpful
it's sequel is leagues and bounds better, it fixes the two main issues that plague the original, being pacing and difficulty that is to say it actually has a difficulty, as pvz1 is only hard when you're doing some of the stupidest shit imaginable, and pvz1 is just unbearably slow, i had to watch a MOVIE in the middle of it at one point to keep myself entertained and if you're gonna argue that modern versions of pvz2 have been ruined, yeah, they have been but you can play older versions on bluestacks and it honestly works really well, levelling isn't a problem, nor are ads, and those are the only real problems the game actually has
@@shiitaki The sequal is shiitaki. It's full of micro-transactions, repetitive levels and power creep. It feels empty; there's barely any unique zombies, and the one's that there are feel boring, and easy to play around. Also, powerups are terrible, and the gargs are easy. It is WAY worse than the original.
Although threepeater is a little too expensive in this game, I really enjoy its gimmick and used it a lot in my first playthrough Probably my second favorite plant behind squash
Honestly, starfruit is underrated by most tier lists, They can already kill most zombies despite being slightly more than a peashooter, and having multiple columns of them creates an unstoppable wall of damage that can usually beat most levels. Even if there’s a breach in defenses, that’s covered by the fact that starfruit shoots straight down and straight up, so it’s never a big problem if one is eaten. They’re really cheap defense that can do a really good job at killing everything on screen and EVEN THOUGH their appearance in the first game isn’t the most appealing, they add some color onto the board which I like. They’re usually my first choice for levels A few niche things about them is the fact that they can solo a bungee zombie about to steal them, and they can be used to get don’t pea in the pool and pool’s closed at the same time for what that’s worth .
I appreciate someone sticking up for starfruit. Yeah, some plants get tanked because of a joke I’ve made, and starfruit was sadly one of them. I don’t personally like starfruit a whole lot but it probably does deserve higher than a C realistically
It's an A tier for me, mainly because it's probably one of the most flexible Damage plants. Reason it cannot go higher is because it's lack of burst as well as restrictions. A row of starfruit isn't nearly as effective and you need an entire army to fare well against the harder stages so that restricts you to only the starfruit as your dmg source. Overall it's definitely a great plant
Seeing this game fills me with so much nostalgia, I remember loving whenever I used a hypno shroom on a dancer zombie since any backup dancers he summoned afterwards would also be on your side
Ooooo I'm gonna tear your organs for disrespecting my shy boi. You didn't even use him properly. He's a low cost peashooter that works if you keep the enemies away
i personally love the scaredy shroom since it's basically a cheap peashooter. since i tend to pit them to the left or right of my sun shroom they are almost always shooting
I just wanted to let you know that you inspired me to start my RUclips channel and make my first video. I can’t believe it happened to come out the same day you made a Plants Vs. Zombies video too! Thank you so much!
I love that the video does not just rank usefulness, but design too. Gatling Pea should be S tier. He's a war veteran with helmet and barrel mouth. Looking forward to PvZ2 ranking. Since there's so many plants, I suggest ranking the adventure plant first with 69 (nice) plants before moving on to premium plant. Some plants like hypno shroom and garlic are terrible in sequel due to many zombies do not eat plant as they destroy plant instead. 17:10 "Blover has its fan?" Just wait until PvZ2 where Blover can blow ALL AIRBORNE zombie as long as their feet doesn't touch the ground like imp thrown by gargantuar
I’m glad you like my style! Poor Gatling pea, he is pretty cool. I’m excited about pvz2 as well. If this video keeps getting views I’ll definitely keep making PvZ stuff. Please like this video so it can keep doing well! Thanks!
but he can kill one zombie like every 40 seconds thats horrible damage output compare that to like any other atacking plant in the game and they all out class him
I mean I said it’s not ALL based on power, that’s just how I do my tier lists. There are more definitive strength or usefulness tier lists out there if that’s what you’re looking for
Another weird thing I found is that a seashroom gets shot by pea zombies instead of puffshrooms on lily pads. Puffshrooms on lily pads are safe from being shot in Zombotany but the seashroom is not, despite it looking short :(
nice video, I didn't know anyone was able to put hypno shroom at S, most people rank hypno shroom on C ,D or F tier, also 4 columns of starfruit can counter most zombies like bungee, digger, and pogo zombies.
I'd rank chomper lower, cherry bomb higher, and maybe puff shroom in B tier, and scaredy shroom is a good early game plant, it has the potential to be better than peashooter, due to costing 25 sun, but It does stop attacking if there's a zombie in a 3x3 area near it, so I'd personally put it in C with peashooter, maybe even B, also, I reccomend putting the sunflowers in column 3 and 4, even though putting them in column 1-2 is considered the original, planting main attackers in the front rows is extremely bad since it means if they get destroyed, you only have sunflowers, if you have split pea or a insta, MAYBE you can save your defence, but you wouldn't want to waste an insta when that could be (almost) entirely avoided by planting attackers in column 1-2.
puff shroom is S tier it is one of the most overpowered little pieces of shit ever invented for gaming giving you great early game stalling to save up ludicrous amounts of sun, a late game stalling plant that shits all over gargs, small but consistent front line damage aswell as a little extra defense
great video, I agree with almost all your rankings and even the ones I don't (like Potato Mine) you have good reason for their placements 9/10 video 10/10 if you sang "Zombies on Your Lawn"
sir, you appear to currently be off your rockers the scale of design V.S function is like 90% in design's favor given some of the asanine placements so the list is literally just "i think this plant looks cool, A tier"
My favorite planet is the twin sunflower. They just make it so much easier to play the other upgrade plantes, which are amazing. Most of my game strategies are based on stalling while setting them up at the beggining, and slowly planting the base plants for the upgrades at the same time; then, when I have 1000000 suns, I don't need to worry about my super expensive deck cost anymore.
I definitely find that I enjoy the more edgy plants more than the light hearted ones, which is why I love Gravebuster and Tangle Kelp (mostly tangle kelp) so much. I wish they’d kept their old designs and weren’t made less edgy looking in PvZ 2.
After playing PVZ, I have realized one VERY strong use for the chompers. Gargantaurs. Whenever I am in endless mode, gargantaurs and zombonis tend to end my run. Gargantaurs used to be the worst until I discoverd something. Chompers will constantly bite gargantaurs with that insanely powerful bite over and over until they drop dead. If you have ice melon pults or frost peas as well, the gargantaurs drop dead SUPER fast.
In my opinion, Potato Mine is pretty good! I use him in the early game while I build up my sun production, set him around the 3rd row/collum right when a zombie appears, and he'll prime a decent amount before the zombie gets close! And the low sun cost is _very_ good early game!
Here are my critiques: 1. Potato Mine I would put at least A since if you put one in column 3 in the row you see the first zombie spawn, he'll be armed before the zombie reaches him which is a 25 cost stall so you can spam sun producers and make bank which then makes placing a bunch of strong attackers like Repeater much easier much earlier. Plus he is adorable like how a pug is and if Spudow from Heroes is anything to go off of, he probably doesn't look that freaky under the grass. 2. I just want to say how funny it is that this late into PvZ 2's life they added Scaredy Shroom virtually unchanged from PvZ 1, where she was already pretty shit, and make it hell to even unlock her only for her to perform even worse with how much zombie spam and all the approaching gimmicks there are. Jurrasic Marsh is the worst by far for this. 3. I personally think Tangle Kelp should've been in S tier because, even though its limited to Pool levels, in said levels it is an amazing tool that gets a lot of work done. The design is great, the effect is very useful, its just a great plant. 4. As a Blover Believer I find the placement in D tier an absolute crime and you shall atone in due time. Now we wait for either a ranking of the PvZ 1 Zombies (you better not forget the Zombotony zombies) or the PvZ 2 plants, although the latter could be a few videos for the adventure plants, some of the special ones like the gemium and premium plants (Witch Hazel must be on that list if you do it), and of course the PvZ 2 Zombie tier list which should be fun.
i believe S tier should be preserved for plants that completely bully the game tangle kelp is good, but unlike potato mine it doesn't really serve the purpose of an early game staller to increase sun production it does however contend with squash, cause while squash can indeed kill everything in 1 tile while tangle kelp only kills 1, tangle kelp is 3 times cheaper and situations where there are that many zombies clumped up in the pool don't really happen that often (you'd need 3 or more for squash to really be cost effective in comparison) so i'd say top of B, it's good at what it does, i just wish it was a little better so there's more of a reason to use it over it's land counterparts
@samis2642 Critiques probably wasn’t the best word to use, it was more me giving my opinions on why I felt some of the placements were off followed by my reasoning.
can we give respects to pumpkin? not only he protects anyone you put them on, but also sacfrices his own life for the plant, W pumpkin. Hes a true friend.
got any reasoning for them being S? to me they're both just good scaredy is hella outclassed in terms of being a cheap early game, but it's a much cheaper peashooter so it can act as mid-late game offense if placed in the back threepeater is only really worth it if you place a lot of them down, but once there your defense will be formidable, although it still has problems like it's main gimmick of shooting in multiple rows, it's a problem because it makes stalling significantly more difficult giving you less time to build up more threepeaters so i can see both being around B-A, but not quite S
cabbage pult main here, i just love his design, the way he attacks and the fac that he has double damage than the peashooter but due to the slow attack it has almost the same dps as a regular peashooter. I always use him on easy levels just for fun and as another low cost attacker B tier for me at minimum, S as maximum
Here's my ranking (I'm also including an e tier). S- cherry bomb, potato mine,fume shroom,Ice shroom,doom shroom, squash,jalapeño,tall-nut, torchwood,starfruit, pumpkin,melon pult (only roof plant in s tier imo), Gatling pea,twin sunflower,gloom shroom,winter melon(best plant in the game Imo),cob cannon, imitator. A- sunflower,snow pea,repeater, puff shroom,sun shroom,three-peater(yes I put three-peater in a tier),blover,kernel pult,cattail. B- chomper, magnet shroom, garlic.(that's it). C- Peashooter,,lilypad,sea shroom, backwards repeater(only found in vase breaker). D- wall-nut,tangle kelp,flower pot,explode-o-nut (only found in both wall-nut bowling 1&2). E- hypno shroom,scaredy shroom, split pea,spikerock, giant wall-nut(only found in wall-nut bowling 2). F- grave buster,spikeweed(worst plant in the entire game.yeah,so what if it can pop the tires of zombonis?have you seen a spikeweed pop the tires of a catapult zombie?no?yeah, that's what I thought.can't even kill a regular zombie by itself),plantern,cactus, cabbage pult, coffee bean, marigold, umbrella leaf(only because it's the most forgettable plant in the game),golden magnet,tree of wisdom (only found on steam version).
to quote jake “usefullness isn’t the only factor on the tierlist” which implies usefulness and design are Both factors to the tierlist, you just can’t listen to the video, also he put scaredy shroom in f because it’s usefullness and design are both bad
@@Bengt2509 well I just feel like he's coming from a bias perspective, not taking in how useful they are, but rather if he likes their design. Yet again, this isn't a *design* tierlist. That's a different thing in the pvz community.
For me , puff shroom and potato mine should be s tier . Day : during early game , potato mine can waste the zombie time while building line of sun flower , since zombie usually gose 1by1 in early game. Night : no need to ask , puff shroom is free. Btw who the hell put scardy shroom on top of the lane ? I always put him behind sun shroom , he have the same damage of a peashooter
1.Pumpkin easy S 2. Puff Shroom easily A at least 3. Sun flower and twin sunflower in A and B??? They are literally essential. 4. Potato mine is easily A, idk what you were smoking 5. You put three mushrooms in S but put coffe been in D, hello? You know they go together? 6.Hypno shroom is D at the highest 7. Chomper is garbage 8. Doom Shroom in S but cherry in C? Huh? 9. Grave buster in A but lily pad in D? Both are specific to a type of level so why are they so far apart? 10.Gloom is the easiest S ever I could keep going, anyway still liked the video because you have good editing but the opinions are actual trash lmao
The reason for these discrepancies are because I rank things on usefulness, looks, design, stuff like that. That’s how lily pad is in d but grave buster is in A. Hopefully that makes my ranking make more sense
The list is good, only problem i got is, well even tho i love the hypno shroom i think he should be down a bit. I mean you can only use him on bucket heads or football players, and your plants might have already beat them up a bit. Plus the coffee bean with it THATS like 200 sun. And if you say use him only at night, well that’s why puff shrooms are free.
I would argue that cabbage pult goes in B because it does double damage than a peashooter and kernel pult would share a spot with him because its rng based
Great video! I especially liked how fast the sponsor was. Almost thought that it was a joke with how fast it went. Missed opportunity to bully paimon though (everyone hates her lol) Ps: you think u might do pvz gw2 plants and zombies in the near future?
Haha thanks! It is a pretty fun sponsor, I really should’ve bullied Paimon. I would really love to! I think that would be a lot of fun getting into those parts of the pvz series. Please make sure you like this video, if it does well then I’m definitely making more pvz content!
i use potato mines to stall zombies so i can get a double lane of sunflower and then 1 lane of repeaters (ive beaten PVZ 10 times in total) also whoever said repeaters are for early game your wrong you can totally use repeaters in late game too for example i got to wave 6 without planting a single gatling pea (i had to upgrade after) btw this is survival day hard if your wondering
@Jake.Miller: fun fact the cob cannon is in china edition of pvz2 and it is super overpowered ---- it recharges as fast as a wall nut and using gold bloom+imitater can get you one at the start of the game
PvZ1 and 2 have so many unique plants that give different strategies. I dont play PvZ1 anymore because PvZ2 has more content and plants to play with. PvZ1 was fun when I was playing it but after I beat the game there was nothing for me to do.
i love plants vs zombie series. And, your video was the best i ever seen about ranking thinks. You were entertaining, smart and you create your video very well and the plants were at the right place.
@@Jake.Miller YOOO, that was unexpected, but what kind of device do you have by apple? To be honest, I'm shocked about good quality of your content and a little amazed that you made it all in iMovie
Haha I know most iMovie stuff is pretty obviously made in imovie and not too well done. I have an iPhone 13 (I think, it’s somewhere around there) but I use the limitations of the software to my advantage as best I can. I did NOT know it could do HDR tho haha
Well, I encourage you for what you are doing and I think that you are doing everything in the beast you can, I personally mount my videos in Videoshop on my iPhone 13 Pro so XD Personally I can understand you, the more I heavily love your content!
4:04 Yes, actually. In Latin America a lot of people though he was a potato and called him "la papa" which means the potato. Still happens to this day, and it's even become some sort of meme in the community.
Hey just constructive critiscism, that beginning bit of naming every plant in the game i feel like it's kind of redundant? Like most people clicking on the video are most likely long term fans of the games and they will probably already be familiar with the plants and even if they aren't they will be as soon as you talk about the plant later on, it's a minute wasted that most viewers won't realistically care too much about and could take away from the video but either way great video and keep up the good work i've really been enjoying your content lately so please keep it up
Yeah that’s fair. It’s kinda become a tradition at this point. I know most people are familiar and it is a big chunk of time. I’ll think about retiring it, maybe that’s something to have the community vote on
16:41 omega brain cactus/blover stratedgy, truly remarkable usage of both these balloon zombie countering plants, in a way that manages not to counter one.
The scaredy-shrooms in my opinion are soup 🍲 useful. Its just a 75% cheaper peashooter. Plus, planting them in the back is useful because then they get scared by zombies
I love scardy mostly cause I love spamming them at the back to support my puff and fumeshrooms. It is designed to be a back line shooter who supports your frontline so that it doesn’t hide
I honestly hate this video. Please watch another video of mine instead of this one. Thanks!

It's an A tier for me, mainly because it's probably one of the most flexible Damage plants. Reason it cannot go higher is because it's lack of burst as well as restrictions. A row of starfruit isn't nearly as effective and you need an entire army to fare well against the harder stages so that restricts you to only the starfruit as your dmg source.

I just wanted to let you know that you inspired me to start my RUclips channel and make my first video. I can’t believe it happened to come out the same day you made a Plants Vs. Zombies video too! Thank you so much!
It’s a great video! Let me know if you ever work on another, I’d love to see it!
I will! Thanks so much for checking it out!
Lovin’ the green logo, and lovin’ the content! You are criminally underrated.
Haha thank you so much I really appreciate it
I love that the video does not just rank usefulness, but design too.
Gatling Pea should be S tier. He's a war veteran with helmet and barrel mouth.
Looking forward to PvZ2 ranking. Since there's so many plants, I suggest ranking the adventure plant first with 69 (nice) plants before moving on to premium plant. Some plants like hypno shroom and garlic are terrible in sequel due to many zombies do not eat plant as they destroy plant instead.
17:10 "Blover has its fan?"
Just wait until PvZ2 where Blover can blow ALL AIRBORNE zombie as long as their feet doesn't touch the ground like imp thrown by gargantuar
I’m glad you like my style! Poor Gatling pea, he is pretty cool. I’m excited about pvz2 as well. If this video keeps getting views I’ll definitely keep making PvZ stuff. Please like this video so it can keep doing well! Thanks!
I didn't think Walnuts were potatoes, but one time my mom saw me playing the game and thought that the Tallnuts were potatoes lol
My guy placed repeater, puff shroom in c tier and potato mine in D tier, but chomper is in B tier ._.
but he can kill one zombie like every 40 seconds thats horrible damage output compare that to like any other atacking plant in the game and they all out class him
@@spydernoobgaming1576 bro hasn't heard of the early game
I mean I said it’s not ALL based on power, that’s just how I do my tier lists. There are more definitive strength or usefulness tier lists out there if that’s what you’re looking for
@@Jake.Miller REPEATER WILL TEACH YOU LESSONS ☠️
@@ИгроьТоросян dude i know i use him to in the earlygame but of course the later plants would be better than early plants
i always found it weird that its called snow pea in pvz1 but the garden warfare games call it ice pea
Yeah they should make up their minds
Can't wait for the 2 hour long video ranking all pvz2 plants
Haha I would definitely split it up into parts
Another weird thing I found is that a seashroom gets shot by pea zombies instead of puffshrooms on lily pads. Puffshrooms on lily pads are safe from being shot in Zombotany but the seashroom is not, despite it looking short :(
nice video, I didn't know anyone was able to put hypno shroom at S, most people rank hypno shroom on C ,D or F tier, also 4 columns of starfruit can counter most zombies like bungee, digger, and pogo zombies.
Good to know! And yea, I just think hypno shroom is cool, what more can i say 😎
I'd rank chomper lower, cherry bomb higher, and maybe puff shroom in B tier, and scaredy shroom is a good early game plant, it has the potential to be better than peashooter, due to costing 25 sun, but It does stop attacking if there's a zombie in a 3x3 area near it, so I'd personally put it in C with peashooter, maybe even B, also, I reccomend putting the sunflowers in column 3 and 4, even though putting them in column 1-2 is considered the original, planting main attackers in the front rows is extremely bad since it means if they get destroyed, you only have sunflowers, if you have split pea or a insta, MAYBE you can save your defence, but you wouldn't want to waste an insta when that could be (almost) entirely avoided by planting attackers in column 1-2.
Nice switches! And yea, makes sense
There is a zombie on your lawn
And every time so eone likes the thing I say I will say something to someone as a reply
puff shroom is S tier
it is one of the most overpowered little pieces of shit ever invented for gaming
giving you great early game stalling to save up ludicrous amounts of sun, a late game stalling plant that shits all over gargs, small but consistent front line damage aswell as a little extra defense
@@fortnitesexmanfr
great video, I agree with almost all your rankings and even the ones I don't (like Potato Mine) you have good reason for their placements

@@Jake.Miller still a good video, there's always next time
sir, you appear to currently be off your rockers
the scale of design V.S function is like 90% in design's favor given some of the asanine placements
so the list is literally just "i think this plant looks cool, A tier"
@@fortnitesexman I'll be honest I got like 50% of that but I think I got the gist of it

@@Jake.MillerU DID NOT! U DID NOT JUS-

HUH?!
My favorite planet is the twin sunflower. They just make it so much easier to play the other upgrade plantes, which are amazing. Most of my game strategies are based on stalling while setting them up at the beggining, and slowly planting the base plants for the upgrades at the same time; then, when I have 1000000 suns, I don't need to worry about my super expensive deck cost anymore.
That’s true, it always helps to have more sun. In the adventure levels I don’t even bother with them but I could see that for survival
@@Jake.Miller make sense, since I mainly play survival.
I definitely find that I enjoy the more edgy plants more than the light hearted ones, which is why I love Gravebuster and Tangle Kelp (mostly tangle kelp) so much. I wish they’d kept their old designs and weren’t made less edgy looking in PvZ 2.
Yea definitely park designs on those two in this game. Edgy is just cool nuff said
I remember i thought the wallnut was a chicken nugget 💀
Haha you know what that’s the correct answer
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂. Oh my god
I think what would be a funny and niche one is a ranking of all the plants almanac entries.
Awesome video. I like this channel pfp too (green). Also yeah pvz2 might be nice.👍
Thank you thank you, I’d love to do it
After playing PVZ, I have realized one VERY strong use for the chompers. Gargantaurs. Whenever I am in endless mode, gargantaurs and zombonis tend to end my run. Gargantaurs used to be the worst until I discoverd something. Chompers will constantly bite gargantaurs with that insanely powerful bite over and over until they drop dead. If you have ice melon pults or frost peas as well, the gargantaurs drop dead SUPER fast.
YAAAY!!! I am not the only one who thought that wall-nut is potato!
After years i didnt know torchwood could light up the fog
that's cool
I didn’t know before making the video either haha
In my opinion, Potato Mine is pretty good!
I use him in the early game while I build up my sun production, set him around the 3rd row/collum right when a zombie appears, and he'll prime a decent amount before the zombie gets close!
And the low sun cost is _very_ good early game!
Fr, the best start plant imo
Puff shroom in C is a crime considering you can beat most night levels with only puff shroom
Dont like puff shroom either, so in my ranking, it would be D
I mean I said that word for word in the video I don’t know what more you want from me

Wow, 2 people who have never seen the channel before insulting jake for no reason yipee
I love watching this vid at 6 am in the morning keep up the good work!
Haha it’s the perfect time to watch it! Thanks!
Jake: I prefer my potatoes explode!
Imitator: *becomes potato mine*
Here are my critiques:
1. Potato Mine I would put at least A since if you put one in column 3 in the row you see the first zombie spawn, he'll be armed before the zombie reaches him which is a 25 cost stall so you can spam sun producers and make bank which then makes placing a bunch of strong attackers like Repeater much easier much earlier. Plus he is adorable like how a pug is and if Spudow from Heroes is anything to go off of, he probably doesn't look that freaky under the grass.
2. I just want to say how funny it is that this late into PvZ 2's life they added Scaredy Shroom virtually unchanged from PvZ 1, where she was already pretty shit, and make it hell to even unlock her only for her to perform even worse with how much zombie spam and all the approaching gimmicks there are. Jurrasic Marsh is the worst by far for this.
3. I personally think Tangle Kelp should've been in S tier because, even though its limited to Pool levels, in said levels it is an amazing tool that gets a lot of work done. The design is great, the effect is very useful, its just a great plant.
4. As a Blover Believer I find the placement in D tier an absolute crime and you shall atone in due time.
Now we wait for either a ranking of the PvZ 1 Zombies (you better not forget the Zombotony zombies) or the PvZ 2 plants, although the latter could be a few videos for the adventure plants, some of the special ones like the gemium and premium plants (Witch Hazel must be on that list if you do it), and of course the PvZ 2 Zombie tier list which should be fun.
Haha thankfully not too many critiques. I will one day stone for my sins, IM SO SORRY! But I’m glad you liked this list as well
i believe S tier should be preserved for plants that completely bully the game
tangle kelp is good, but unlike potato mine it doesn't really serve the purpose of an early game staller to increase sun production
it does however contend with squash, cause while squash can indeed kill everything in 1 tile while tangle kelp only kills 1, tangle kelp is 3 times cheaper and situations where there are that many zombies clumped up in the pool don't really happen that often (you'd need 3 or more for squash to really be cost effective in comparison)
so i'd say top of B, it's good at what it does, i just wish it was a little better so there's more of a reason to use it over it's land counterparts
Why are you critiquing something that's entirely opinionated? Meaning there are no wrong choices.
@samis2642 Critiques probably wasn’t the best word to use, it was more me giving my opinions on why I felt some of the placements were off followed by my reasoning.
@@the_godbodor7026 That's completely understandable. My mistake for not realizing that from the start.
1:55 plants vs your mom is crazy💀
Idk y but I always thought magnet mushroom was just a magnet with a stalk and a lil bowtie
Haha the bowtie is cuuute
@@Jake.Miller ikr
I think that they should partially rank on when you get them- peashooters are so OG and usefull
can we give respects to pumpkin? not only he protects anyone you put them on, but also sacfrices his own life for the plant,
W pumpkin.
Hes a true friend.
what?? threepeater and scaredy shroom are S tier imo!
That’s great! I just don’t personally like them very much
got any reasoning for them being S?
to me they're both just good
scaredy is hella outclassed in terms of being a cheap early game, but it's a much cheaper peashooter so it can act as mid-late game offense if placed in the back
threepeater is only really worth it if you place a lot of them down, but once there your defense will be formidable, although it still has problems like it's main gimmick of shooting in multiple rows, it's a problem because it makes stalling significantly more difficult giving you less time to build up more threepeaters
so i can see both being around B-A, but not quite S
If lilypad is anywhere higher than b im unsubbing
Edit:I am staying subbed
Hoorayyy
@@Jake.Miller I'M NOT GONNA DO IT. MONSTER.
Great video!!!
Thank you thank you
cabbage pult main here, i just love his design, the way he attacks and the fac that he has double damage than the peashooter but due to the slow attack it has almost the same dps as a regular peashooter. I always use him on easy levels just for fun and as another low cost attacker
B tier for me at minimum, S as maximum

to quote jake “usefullness isn’t the only factor on the tierlist” which implies usefulness and design are Both factors to the tierlist, you just can’t listen to the video, also he put scaredy shroom in f because it’s usefullness and design are both bad
@@Bengt2509 well I just feel like he's coming from a bias perspective, not taking in how useful they are, but rather if he likes their design. Yet again, this isn't a *design* tierlist. That's a different thing in the pvz community.

Haha I love people doing exactly what I DEMAND of them you little bee you are part of MY hive you are part of MY hive.

Potato mine is probably the best starter plant in case you have to save a lot of sun in case one zombies spawn
@@Da.Liar-Pigagred
Green PFP for plants and zombies?!
Yees
For me , puff shroom and potato mine should be s tier .
Day : during early game , potato mine can waste the zombie time while building line of sun flower , since zombie usually gose 1by1 in early game.
Night : no need to ask , puff shroom is free.
Btw who the hell put scardy shroom on top of the lane ? I always put him behind sun shroom , he have the same damage of a peashooter
NOT PUTTING CATTAIL IN S IS A CRIME

7. Chomper is garbage
8. Doom Shroom in S but cherry in C? Huh?
9. Grave buster in A but lily pad in D? Both are specific to a type of level so why are they so far apart?
10.Gloom is the easiest S ever
I could keep going, anyway still liked the video because you have good editing but the opinions are actual trash lmao
The reason for these discrepancies are because I rank things on usefulness, looks, design, stuff like that. That’s how lily pad is in d but grave buster is in A. Hopefully that makes my ranking make more sense

@@Jake.Miller NO. IT MAKES YOU LOOK MORE TRASH.
The list is good, only problem i got is, well even tho i love the hypno shroom i think he should be down a bit. I mean you can only use him on bucket heads or football players, and your plants might have already beat them up a bit. Plus the coffee bean with it THATS like 200 sun. And if you say use him only at night, well that’s why puff shrooms are free.
the chomper can eat through a wall nut, really helpful in some cases
I would argue that cabbage pult goes in B because it does double damage than a peashooter and kernel pult would share a spot with him because its rng based

9:15 That guy is more concerned on reaching the house than his comrade eating him. Guess he is filled with DETERMINATION.
Nah jake I get it, I too thought the wallnut was a potato
i use potato mines to stall zombies so i can get a double lane of sunflower and then 1 lane of repeaters (ive beaten PVZ 10 times in total)
also whoever said repeaters are for early game your wrong you can totally use repeaters in late game too for example i got to wave 6 without planting a single gatling pea (i had to upgrade after) btw this is survival day hard if your wondering
THE FLOWER POT HAS A FACE??? I'VE BEEN PLAYING THIS GAME SINCE RELEASE AND I JUST NOW REALIZED IT
Haha now you can’t unsee it
@Jake.Miller: fun fact the cob cannon is in china edition of pvz2 and it is super overpowered ---- it recharges as fast as a wall nut and using gold bloom+imitater can get you one at the start of the game
PvZ1 and 2 have so many unique plants that give different strategies. I dont play PvZ1 anymore because PvZ2 has more content and plants to play with. PvZ1 was fun when I was playing it but after I beat the game there was nothing for me to do.
It’s true. I think there’s a bit more to do in pvz1 than you give it credit for but it’s hard to beat the amount of stuff in pvz2

Haha he is now la papa for me until the end of time
Hey just constructive critiscism, that beginning bit of naming every plant in the game i feel like it's kind of redundant? Like most people clicking on the video are most likely long term fans of the games and they will probably already be familiar with the plants and even if they aren't they will be as soon as you talk about the plant later on, it's a minute wasted that most viewers won't realistically care too much about and could take away from the video but either way great video and keep up the good work i've really been enjoying your content lately so please keep it up
Yeah that’s fair. It’s kinda become a tradition at this point. I know most people are familiar and it is a big chunk of time. I’ll think about retiring it, maybe that’s something to have the community vote on
