I don't mind the new Citron at all. Doesn't hurt the plants to have extra muscle, but if there has to be a nerf I would return his old crit box. That way he isn't too strong during 1vs1s.
When I play plants I play sunflower, chomper, and pea variants (right now ice pea is my fav), and I see a lot of people stacking imps more than all stars. I don't know why people stack imps either, I mean yeah we can all agree gravity grenade is annoying. but impakta isn't so bad and a lot of times mechs are blown up 5 seconds after being summoned (why do imps insists on summoning their mech in the middle of an open field?).
I do see all stars on the rise but honestly the only thing I hate about them is imp punt, with the maps being so tight imp punt is absolutely annoying. Honestly I cannot stand it, and I think the reason all stars are seeing a lot of streaks lately (according to popcap) is because imp punt is stupid. instant cast, imp on your face or near it, boom, dead peashooter, flower, and possibly chomper. The thing that makes the all star the most annoying character is imp punt onto a gnome bomb target, suburbination base, and to a lesser extent a turf take over base. I honestly couldn't care less about his long rate of fire or damage, I don't think that's the problem, it's his imp punt.
Also, I don't know why but when I play zombies I pretty much play super hero (cosmic brains now) and imps so Citrons don't give me any trouble, unless my imp goes into mech form then Citron wrecks my day lol. I have a hard time dealing with chompers, that goo is good, but no OP in my opinion.
Anyway just my two cents.
The problem with Impkata is, just like with the Gravity Grenade, that it requires 0 skill to use. It's just spray and pray until the clip is empty, and then use Impkata for spray and pray again to get a vanquish. Simply because it hits everything everywhere. And the good 100 damage it deals on a single target is too much.
Luckily Rose can nullify it with all 3 of her skills, but the sunflower is done when that happens in 90% of the cases.
Some people complain about the Imp Punt, but the Punt actually requires skill to be effective and can easily bounce off of tiny obstacles and miss the target completely. The Punt also does not hit you on a roof when you are right on top of an All Star.
The way Impkata emits bullets is cheap and broken. It should only hit enemies inside of a Doughnut shaped area. But instead it is just a complete sphere covering 360°, hitting everything above and below.
Dodging an Imp Punt with unpredictable movement on uneven ground is a lot easier than to avoid damage from Impkata. And just like with the Citrons EMPeach on Mechs, the Imps Impkata is rather ineffective on groups, but devastating on single targets. Which again does not serve its purpose.
