@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.

Far future or modern day are good worlds to level up.

I would start with the Far Future Pinatas and see how it goes. Sometimes you can get 70 to 80 seed packets for Blover in one Pinata 🙂 Blover is probably the most used plant in BattleZ Arena. Also check out the PvZ2 fandom page. There you can see if it is worth to upgrade a specific plant to the next level and if you get any higher value out of it. For instance, Bowling Bulb starts with the yellow ball at level 7.
@FantastiXxPVZ You've been mentioned by Zackscott in his new video^^ 🙂 Maybe someone should tell this guy about penalties, lol.

@PowerTossI really want to get blover to 6,but my MF and Dusk is half way to 6 ☹️
Consult the fandom site for tables of level cost/ benefits, blover L6 will have a recharge rate of 2.5 seconds and still cost 25 sun.
Level 6 dusk lobber will do from 65 to 75 damage.

Haha, and about the old Battlez Streak system, which used to be rewarding. Hacks, pshh, he doesn't know how much I have played or how high my streaks used to be.
He did decent though for his "First Run." He killed the first Cardio Zombie, but maybe should have watched my vid closer, so the other 2 didn't get away. It wasn't his levels, he didn't stack enough squashes or PF them like I did. His Squash is Mastery and he should have had absolutely no problem. I can do it without Mastery Squash. 🤷♂️
@FantastiXxPVZRegarding the old streak system,i wish it still existed ☹️
I have won 55 continious matches from sap-fling tournament,challengeing with opponents from low,mid,high levels and even mastery but still not lost a single match :D
If it still existed i would have benefited a lot these days.

@MAGICDAVESHROOMSo which is better?
imo, .5 seconds on Blover is huge. You won't need double blover with this. Although, there is going to be times when Blover is banned and the only real strat at this level is to use Dusk Lobber. That's a tough one. I can see with a .5 second advantage to Blover, you'd hit 4 M much easier this tournament.
Excellent. Now to see how much better it performs in the Arena ! Congratulations.

I am sure it would, but someone from EA/PopCap just wanted to be a killjoy. 👿

I would probably go for dusk lobber, but if if you're a big ftp blover fan remember blover is the most powerful plant on the lawn.
