Awesome score! I would not replace PPM with bombard mint. There is a bug that you don't get the scores for the helmets of the zombies when you use bombard mint. I don't think this has been fixed yet. But you can try it yourself 🙂 

Did someone say RNG? I think I've never seen so many zombies coming out. I actually recorded that one...you can see the video here.

A great score for F2P plants without mints.

Just trying to imagine if you have level 5 Stallia, if this were a true PvP game I wish I have not been paired with you in the Arena.

Keep up the good work and thanks for sharing. 

@eieio_31310 @FantastiXxPVZ Yeah, Stallia 5 would have been awesome that round 🙂 I'm working on it.

But even if I had the seed packets for it I could not afford it yet^^

I'm always low on coins and struggling to get plants to level 5 ☹️ Since I live in Germany I don't get any ads and can't take advantage of any glitches.

Oh so your only source of coins are from streaks and tournament rewards? 3000 or 3600 at a time? this is a real struggle.  Just wondering how far you are away from France or Holland, as when I traveled Europe last time I had noticed I only need to cross the boarder and the ads were available.

Yep, that are basically my only sources for coins + farming zen garden (but I'm also out of sprouts^^). I live not that far from Austria and should get ads there. I will see if I get ads the next time I go hiking 🙂

Reinforce-mint as you want to set the ZDL higher initially. For information on scoring, penalties, and ZDL, read here: https://www.reddit.com/r/PlantsVSZombies/comments/9kt4y4/battlez_faq/

@FantastiXxPVZAfter first 3 matches of over 3mil+, my scores keeps being under 3mil,the zombie come out so slowly☹️(

This is why I said use Reinforce-mint early as it signals that you are having no issues killing Zombies, so the RNG produces Zombies that are harder and more of them, but as soon as there is a sense you are struggling, the game will compensate on the next wave with fewer and weaker Zombies.

So paying attention early is real important.  Many times I am distracted and forget I started an Arena match so I am far behind (10, 20 seconds or more) and struggle to catch up.

Makes perfect sense to use an R-mint early to tell them Zombies to "bring it on" as I am ready to rumble !!

Thing is your expectations might be too high. If you see a really great score posted, it's not the norm. At your level, I see alot of YouTubers post an average score of 2.2 - 2.7 Million. So, you aren't doing bad. Also, Zombies coming out too slow might be a result of a plant death, a lawn mower triggered, or slow killing. Also, look at what kind of Zombies are coming out. If it's Bucketheads, ZDL is high, if its Coneheads, the ZDL has been lowered.

On future games you can compare the Zombies in the Zombie Alamanac to tell what Level the Zombies you are seeing are. Like, for example the Arena might have lowest ZDL sparsely producing regular Zombies, mid-range ZDL producing Conehead Mummies, Higher ZDL with Bucketheads and optimal ZDL with Pyramid Heads or just a crap ton of Bucketheads, like we are seeing now. Those are easy comparison. Sometimes in Arena we may see cross-Adventure type Zombies, like Low level from Ancient Egypt and Some higher ones from Far Furture.

Probably did just that.

Definitely. Unfortunately, not much you can do, but try to avoid planting in column 6 to column 9 initially. Try to use your Blover as a sacrifice to take the skull beam, since Blover is an insta-plant and is not a Penalty plant. I'd check out that link I posted about scoring. 👈😉

I usually use PPM after a Reinforce-Mint/Blover combo and plant it on the most right column. You have to be a bit lucky that no shoveling guy comes out or your PPM charges fast enough. I also have a specific "time stamp" when I take a peek at my score to see if it is a good run. This tournament you want to try to have a score of 2M+ at the 1 minute mark. I'm usually already out of plan food at that time (or have one left). But don't focus on your score too much during the game 🙂

@PowerTossAfter numerous matches with lơw RNG I finally got over 3mil again
not my best score indeed though,but i am 1st in gold ^^

@HenryThePear Very nice!!! 🙂 You will definitely get the 4M score in Jade League during the Boosterama. The ZDL of the zombies in Jade League might start a little bit higher compared to the ZDL in Gold League.
