4-6 corns every game

But who can really blame them when pea shooter and corn are the only plants that are decent now?

Citron can't tank like he's supposed to. His damage is pretty subpar because his attack overheats too quickly. All for what? So he can move around a map faster? Please.

Rose is useless now aside from building teleporters. She didn't need a health nerf. She can't duel anyone anymore and gets blown up as soon as she leaves cover.

Chomper is pretty meh, always has been. It's good at causing chaos but beyond that he's kind of a one dimensional character. He has one job, to chomp people. And he usually dies in the process.

Sunflowers are outclassed by scientists. Scientists heal just as well, have far better team pressure and objective pressure, and Better utility spells.

Cactus is outdated. Deadbeard does a better job at sniping and has far more versatility. Cactus basically is forced to play as far back as humanly possible because it has no way to save itself when caught up close, unlike deadbeard. It's decent in defending objective with mines but replanting those mines is a suicide mission.

Every game now just has 4-6 of one character. Whether it be corn, imps, super brainz, deadbeards, or peas.

  • Dude you're missing the point.

    Nobody is playing Soldier now because everything else is so much better, and everyone is playing Corn because everything else is so much worse.

    Thats the issue we have with imbalance.

    Zombies are just so much better, easier to play and more fun to kill with due to this.

    I play Soldier because he's easy to Use :] People do use soldier, no point to use Corn and Soldier too much in the same team, so there's no reason to abuse picking him anyway.
    And he fits perfectly zombies strategies. Has two way to escape and usually since Mech and S.zombies get the focus no one cares me and i can shoot from distance while being totally safe.

    Corn is garbage, corn is overvalued and people should stop play it, unless they are VERY very good.
    Corn is a character that is made only for "carry" and play like rambo in a team when all character all dependant to each other. He's hard to play because he cant fit very well his team composition.
    He's good character and no Soldier isnt worst than him, Soldier has 25 less but more accuracy and two rocket jumps can used consecutively (also can aim and shoot while jump, corn just spray a wave of bullets behind him)

    Besides that, the rose discuss,  Support doesnt mean you shouldnt have way to carry team :] Just less chances 😉
    Speaking of, Engineer is "support too" well this is kinda a joke design :]
    Rose doesnt need buff but QoL changes. Thanks a lot, a new character in the new game has died cause community QQs, try to back our new team-mate and bring it again in the middle of rift, thanks.
    Sometimes even sunflowers can carry defenetively games, and the reason why you dont see Sunflowers do their job properly is because two reasons:
    - you pick a support when you suck at the game and want to get carryed, instead Sunflower is the most hard character to play, and even Rose.. wow.
    What a well designed game. Instead you're forced to pick Toxic PeaShooter.. which is a useless character.. well but since he's easy to play and he's the killer... people are even going to say he's op. Wow what a well knowledged community. And people have the proud to say "Vampire sunflower is op" . Yeah defenetively this community have very good knowledge about balance.

    - you get costantly gangbanged actually because of many dashes/blinks/teleports and you suffer people from low range, and Electro Brainz chains you before you can even heal someone, cool.

    Yesterday i won 60% of my plants games.

    Only One BBQ corn every time i won... coincidence?
    No plants dont sucks. Their just hard to play. Plants do not need buffs, but QoL changes, need to be more enjoyable in the way people should't  switch team whenever they are plants thinking "omg plants are so painful to play"

    Citron is really weak, I don't really care what you argue with. I've played as the imp post patch and I can outright body them. Went 10-2 vs one in a turf wars. His empeach is completely nullified against a gravity bomb. Have you ever tried to take down an imp at close range with his beam? It's funny trying to watch them attempt to drag that slow beam around quickly. Even though the reticle is in place the beam has to catch up, and it will never catch up to a constant jumping in every direction imp. Also, the Citron has the inherent problem of being an extremely wide bodied target. Which basically means I can hip fire with anyone and connect. It's very easy to completely annihilate Citrons. All forms. The best variant of citron is a maxed Iron Citron, but even he has some massive flaws against anything that is currently "armored". Not saying a character like that shouldn't have flaws, but the Citron certainly is not a great character. 

    I think some people in here are actually overestimating the plants capabilities in here. I've finally started playing as the scientist, and he is by far, the most proficient vanquish master there is in the game. It's actually too easy. I used Computer scientist, and the zoologist. I can rack up 20+ kills in the first area of a turf wars match, and end it every time on that first section. Killing literally everything. Two shot sunflowers, Roses, 3 shot a peashooter, 3 shot a corn. They don't even know what hit them. When I die I can cover the ground quickly again with teleport, and I'm right back in their face before they had a chance to advance much. And as the imp it's very similar, as I can just constantly rush in and dump a clip and drop things with ease, and they really struggle to hit me. I mean like, really struggle. It's pretty pathetic how easy it is to suppress with the zombie team.
