So, while we're all talking about Pant team vs Zombie team balance, how about discussing which variants are asolutely awful. Please take note that this is just my opinion based on my experience. I'd a...
I'll throw my two cent:
Bandit cactus got a small buff to his ammo count so that he's not too ammo starved,it just rather low,but he's better off that way,otherwise is more like a mid-ranged cactus and didn't seem to have got the projectile speed nerf. He can maybe use a small damage buff,but otherwise he's decent for me.
Power cactus got a very good shook arc and ice cactus got a bit better with the amount of new high hp char. But yeah I agree that they both shouldn't get a damage dropoff. Hurt them too much for long range shooting.
Agree with toxic and chomp thing being really lacking at damage right now,they clearly both need a buff
Dunno for iron citron as I never got my hand in it,but afaik,he's rather underrated. same for corn in general
Plz no buff for law pea,like you said he's a good variant if you know how to play him and it actually still hold true even after his LOTL nerf. He can do bunch of damage really quickly.
I'm surprised you didn't mentioned power flower,as she kinda the worst sunflower for me (altrough she not bad,just a tiny bit below the rest). For the rest of her variant,shadow flower afaik is just basic that fire a tiny bit faster. He probably don't need buff if basic don't get a buff neither.
Yes plz buff ice rose,she one of the worst char of the game right now.
Other all-star variant could use buff (mainly rugby star and wresting star) but yeah those need a buff to compete with the rest
Ammo buff for flameface and cannon could be good yeah,cannon need a better shotgun too.
Landscaper is meant for direct hit anyway,the splash seemed to be the same for me.
I do feel like some foot soldier variant could use a buff like sky trooper and the mentioned tank commender,the problem with tank commender is that he's simply outclassed by scuba soldier. Getting his 20 splash in long range could help already.
Party imp Z-mech is identical to basic afaik. But yeah he could use a small damage buff. And the commonly asked general hp nerf.
Yeah scientist is a class in which stuff can go from OP to UP if we're not careful (Dr.chester to Zoologist like you said). That why it hard to make change to him But at any case,archeologist do need a buff. Maybe a slightly better shotgun splash? It a bit lacking right now.
I don't think cosmic brain need a buff,his uncharged punch are bad,but he make up with his good laser.
Edit: Also to @xXFrozenChromeXx about ice pea, despite getting no change,he's actually much MUCH better thank to the higher hp stuff and amount of damage resistance the zombie team have,which make freeze generally more common but also way more useful.
There nothing better to freeze a turbo-twister superbrain, a barrel blasting pirate and even a Z-mech. And with hyper he can easily juke those before triggering the freeze.
@Boolerex fact is despite they are useful, they are rarely picken, both ice peashooter and ice cactus.
For the iron citron need something to replace the Bar Upgrade if you play something else beside Turf takeover. This upgrade is situational. He get that Bar Upgrade at elite lv5.
Every class usually get good things at elite 5, like damage, ice, fire upgrade, poison. Much better things..
