Best possible starting hand
Just wanted to throw this fun topic up there. You can choose the best hand either counting the superpower, or just the starting 4 cards. My pick would be Cat Lady, 2 Goats and a Synchronized Swim...

I can only think of 2 things that can remove cat lady turn 1:
1. Potato mine
2. * shroom + any 1: primal mine, hot date (* must be behind), * Choy
3. Pumpking

Hand: Mustache Waxer, Mustache Waxer, Zombie Plumber, Dark Moon Rising.
Superpower: Dance Off.
1st Draw: Zombie Plumber.
Gives you four damage to throw around and four random 5-drop+ zombies on turn 2. That’ll allow you to clear a lane or two and potentially win without triggering super-block.
Of course, the odds of nailing the perfect hand, the perfect superpower, and the perfect top-deck are... low (down to zero if your opponent is packing Weedwack or Sunburn or chooses to oppose the 1st Waxer down).
This also works:
Hand: Mustache Waxer, Mustache Waxer, Mustache Waxer, Dark Moon Rising.
Superpower: Terror-Former 10,000
1st Draw: Any 1-drop Mustache (Brainy/Sneaky... there are several)
I’d have to math it out... I think maybe this’d be less probable b/c of the triple Waxer required, but less vulnerable to removal b/c Terror-Former is your turn 1 play. There are lots of viable top-deck options, but few of them would make it into a competitive deck.
On the plant side you have a theoretical turn 2 win possibility with: PuffShroom, PuffShroom, PuffShroom, Coffee Grounds/Blazing Bark
This is much more likely to get opposed (zombie in front of Shroom) but has the advantage of dealing about 12 damage through opposition. It is also more probable that the Huge hand b/c your top-deck is irrelevant.
That’s the best I can do for plants offhand; I don’t spend a lot of time thinking about plants.
