Berries MUST be Nerfed
I have never called for nerfing before. I also thought some of the nerfing, like with Valkyrie, were maybe not needed but still was not upset about it. But now I feel the Strawberrian/Strongberry com...

I think that might help. I still think the single most effective step would to raise Strawberrian cost to 4. It would prevent the all-too-common chain of Shelf Mushroom -- Strawberrian Fusion on that -- giving you not only 2 damage for the fusion, but then the additional 1 hit from Strawberrian. PLUS you now have a FREE Berry Blast to use in future rounds. And that all happened on only Round 3. Round 4 you throw a Strongberry, and that is tough for any deck to fight.
And for those saying, "Well berry decks aren't that hard to beat or even that common at the higher tourney levels." I can now say that is not true. I am at level 47 right now and STILL seeing mostly Spudow Berry Decks -- and they are all in the mid- to high-40s level.
I have a berry "splash" deck that is just insanely OPd. I just finished a fight were I was so beaten down (I had 4 health left and he had 16). And with zero plants on the field, in round 8. I was able to wipe out all his zombies and win on the next round. I should not be able to fight back with ZERO legendary cards like that. It felt ... "dirty".
I think you're completely overlooking the fact they can be completely dominated in games as well. Again, if people choose not to run decks that counter these when the meta had them in play constantly, whose fault is that?
