Aside of the Golf Star, the All Star is very ineffective at long range, unlike the Citron now. And besides of the borderline OP Tennis Star, no All Star needs a nerf. Especially not the Hockey Star, Rugby Star or the legendary underdog - the Wrestling Star. Because those 3 are already hard enough to play.
Also i haven't been in a single game with lots of All Stars. Not a single one. Citrons however can make up half of the Plants Team now. So i cannot understand the reasons at all behind of this, besides that the All Star can be effective at dealing with Citrons - which is a result of Citrons being overused.
Also to mention that the Imp had been overused before the Citron, but greeted with more and more buffs instead of nerfs.
Popcap does better not listen to the outcry of the Citron casuals, that abuse the damn Orange Beam all day, but get salty about All Stars punting them because people get sick of Citron snipers.
It's the same reason for me now why i have to constantly counter-pick in matches, because of the masses of Citrons. Just like earlier, where i had to constantly switch to Pea Shooter to get rid of all the Mechs.
Hocky star (ice) is the top 3 all stars I think you got it confused with the gaolie star (the one that shoots very fast and little damage)
Not sure why the allstar is getting a nerf. Its like they want to get rid of their mistakes of the past because in PVZGW 1 everyone used the allstar but not to shoot but to spam the abilities. Now with the imp and super brainz people can do it much easier with effortless impkata and gravity grenade that really do too much damage. And heroic kick and turbo twister really make it hard for the plants. (yes this is where the all stars ability spammers went)
The citron is only deadly if the person can aim if its just a noob than its just a pinata. The reason why the plants are winning now is because at least 75% of people have no skill at all. When the roses got nerfed people switch to the zombies and spammed imps and superbrainz because they are easy to use characters. Now since the superbrainz was nerfed hes gone, the imp finaly has a counter but its not effective against meches. The citron cannot 1 vs 1 a mech. Only the ice citron can. The iron citron with his mech breaker can only hit the mech with 3 shots before the mech vanquishes him. Peas are the real mech counter but citrons don't have the power to stop meches even though they are specifically against meches. Against everything else they are op.

You're actually the one that confuse the two, Hockey star is the fast firing one,while Goalie star is the ice variant

Impkata do wayyy less damage then simply shooting and make imp super vulnerable during it, It really only useful to finish off people. Gravity grenade is OP yeah but huhhhhh it didn't do any damage neither lol

Didn't that apply for litterally everyone? Heck Considering he have a splash,he's not that hard to aim neither

Just how it that even a argument
There just so much wrong in this post that I don't know that to say. The only thing I can agree with is that Citron isn't that effective at 1v1'ing a mech,but even then he round it up by Helping His team taking out a Z-mech as he can lock out of his abilities for a fairly long time with EMPeach. making him much easier to take out. Or can generally survive a Z-mech due to bunch of defensive options + citron ball to escape.
