I've been looking at this topic for awhile but have refrained from answering since I don't particularly have a favorite variant from each class but since I've recently Mastered all of the characters in the game and I'm not distracted by feeling compelled to level everyone up any longer I've noticed some clear favorites have popped up now that I feel free to play whatever I want again.
PLANTS
Peashooter: If I'm playing Ops I go for the Electro Pea hands down due to the massive crowd control ability, but for Multiplayer I prefer the accuracy of the Law Pea or Agent Pea.
Sunflower: For Ops it's usually Vampire Flower or Stuffy Flower and for multiplayer I'm partial to the Fire Flower or Dark Flower.
Cactus: I tend to gravitate towards the Fire Cactus or Ice Cactus.
Chomper: For a Biting Chomper I go for the Hod Rod, and occasionally the Unicorn Chomper and my favorite Spray Chomper is probably the Fire Chomper.
Citron: I prefer the Frozen Citron or Toxic Citron depending on whether or not I want the Beam style weapon.
Kernal Corn: Commando Corn or Party Corn will tend to get my time.
Rose: My favorite Rose is Toxic Rose with Party Rose following up a close second.
ZOMBIES
Imp: Party Imp is my favorite because of his Party Time sound track but I also like the Scallywag Imp because his Z-Mech has one of the longer timers.
Foot Soldier: I'll gravitate towards the Arctic Trooper or General Supremo.
Engineer: Roadie Z is by far my favorite Engineer.
All Star: I like the Rugby Star for his explosive rounds but also the Moto-X Star for locking out the special abilities of the Plants.
Scientist: I like the Chemist for the broad sweep of his Chemical Beaker Blaster but if I need range I'd probably go with the Astronaut.
Super Brainz: For close up work I prefer Toxic Brainz while Cozmic Brainz is my pick when I need range.
Pirate: Tough call but Captain Sharkbite is probably my favorite for sniping but if I need someone better at close range I'll go with Captain Squawk.
I'll join in, too. There are several character classes that I hardly play (yet) and I will note those. Many of these choices are difficult as I often have more than one favorite with classes I play frequently. I'm only a medium skilled player, and many of my choices reflect how forgiving the characters are with my abilities, how effective I can be with them. But others are because of how fun I find the variant to be to play.
Also, for many months I was one of those players who only liked to play plants. I only took to zombies when the Spooky Squash boss hunt occurred. Since then, I've developed a lot more skill with some of them, but I still lag behind compared with plants. With the exception of the Sunflower class, at which I'm very good, I suspect you can see a thread running through my choices of how forgiving the character is to poor accuracy.
Often my choice of character will vary a lot depending on whether I'm playing ops or multiplayer.
PLANTS
Peashooter: Electro Pea, but I will only use him in multiplayer if my team is getting trashed. I like all the splash variants, perhaps toxic is favorite.
Sunflower: I've mastered all but two (Metal Petal and Mystic Flower). Vampire Flower is by far my main, but Alien Flower is really fun.
Cactus: Default Cactus. I suck at playing cactus.
Chomper: This is another class I don't play much. Disco Chomper is the most fun but I'm hoping to get skilled at Hot Rod along the way.
Citron: IRON CITRON! i also love playing Toxic Citron, heck they're all fun and effective.
Corn: Commando Corn, followed by Default Corn
Rose: Default Rose
ZOMBIES
Imp: S.H.R.I.M.P. Scallywag Imp is super fun but not so effective for me.
Soldier: A class I haven't done much with. I use Default or Scuba, and will get around to playing the soldier class more soon.
Engineer: Another class I haven't developed much. Roadie Z is my favorite.
All-Star: The first zombie class I got used to. I've only worked through a few variants. I do best with Cricket Star, but I'm levelling up Goalie Star right now, and he's getting pretty darned effective with the ice upgrade.
Super Hero: Toxic Brainz. I don't really care for playing this class but Toxic is the most fun and effective for me.
Pirate: I've barely played him at all, no preference worth noting.
Scientist: Computer Scientist. Before I got him, Chemist was my go-to. Computer Scientist seems like a direct upgrade from Chemist to me, with a bit more range thrown in.
