Latest zombie meta.

Stompadon, going viral, fossil head, buffed up trickster with rust bolt.

clearly a pay to win deck. But, since the developers want to keep making the zombies stronger, protected, untrickable.. Why not make rank, against the AI? Because quite clearly, the plants will get fed up losing and no one will want to play as a plant..So when everyone becomes a zombie there will be no one to match against. It's no fun, playing against someone who has ALL the advantage on their side. Just makes game rage. If you've being playing as plant and collecting cards to build a stronger deck, it's gutting, feels like you wasting time playing. I never felt like this last year, when the game was new it was fun, and a challenge. Now, it's just dis heartening, and crappy. The nerfs, to the zombies should really be necessary, if the developers had properly tested the game, yes they can limit the amount of legendaries or super rares given in packs.. But then, some can just trade in all their plants to get all the stompadon's going viral's fossil heads etc.. The plants really need something to push the zombies back.

    Zombies are suppose to be brainless bodies that want to eat us, but these zombies seem to sharp, smart, super strong, fast, and once they've eaten all the plants.. There is nothing left for them to eat. So what happens then? They eat each other? Die? 


    You killed me with this part xD 

    I guess they are like the World War Z kind of zombies (those that could run-upstairs xD). I don't know, maybe they just re-die when they have nothing to do.

    Ok, now we are going somewhere. I personally don't like Spudow. His playstyle seems a little bit... odd. I mean, Guardian is mostly about buffing the health of the plants and Kabloom is mostly pure face damage. I only have 2 decks with him, a nut and a berry deck.

    One thing that I like to do, is to gather as much synergy as possible. This means that if I plan in creating a Berry deck, it is going to be a Berry deck all the way through. (Except for some specific cards like Wall-Nut Bowling). But this is more of a tempo deck, playing as many cards as possible on every turn until a finisher comes and ends it all.

    As a zombie main I am completely aware of the potential than the zombies can achieve, so I prefer to play control decks whenever I play as Plants.

    Here are some of my favorite decks. You may or may not have all the cards, I just want you to see the playstyle that I like to use.

    This is a very greedy deck, since I lack early game cards. The idea is to use the Primal Sunflower, Solar Winds and the Sunflower from the Sunflower Seed to play my big cards as soon as possible. Rose is pretty good at creating control decks, because of her superpowers, so I enjoy playing with her.

    Similar concept here, just with Solar Flare.

    Another small thing that I like to do, is to just include 3 copies of some cards. Most of the time 3 copies of a card is fine, except for those absolutely-need-to-include cards I keep 4 copies in the deck (like the Tacos). This gives me 1 or 2 different options that I can include in my deck, and more options = better plays.

    Now, Plants are getting some sweet cards on the next expansion. Solar gets heals and removals,

    Oh, goody.  Because healing and removal weren't ruining the game enough as it is.

    I suppose the currently popular Solar Flare deck consisting of playing only one Plant and then the entire rest of the game being nothing but destructive tricks (leading to a stalemate if you destroy the plant) will be able to be replaced with a deck wherein the single plant is no longer necessary.  -_-

    Please tell me the next expansion will at least have some way of getting rid of Environments (personally I'd love an Environment with no ability other than "Cannot be replaced by other Environments").

    Well, people still complain that zombies are OP and that the current healing AND removals aren't enough, so I suppose that's why they are going to include some more.

    Well, there is only one card right now, the Excavator Zombie. 3 cost 4/2 professional mustache zombie (sneaky) with gravestone. When revealed: Bounce an environment and all plants there.

    If you played PvZ 2, it's the guy with the golden shovel than moved plants over him.

    Squirrel Herder can remove Planet of the Grapes, but that's kind on an exception.

    Rustbolt stomp is not new by any means. I posted a deck before hallowe'en, and I don't even play Rustbolt or hearty that much. So I can safely say that I don't think that I was the first

    @saintlydevilis I share you my decks with which I have been successful so far, I hope you will be helped to solve the problem with the zombies.

    i got AstroShroom deck of NightCap In Internet, it's incredibly good, it does not let the enemy do anything.

    Beans 2 - Cheap of Green Shadow is the one I use the most to advance, but anyway I put the ones that have helped me, make the changes with the cards you have...

    good luck...

  • Thank you for your decks, I will give the a ago if I've all the cards, and maybe craft a couple I don't have to be able to play them. I really appreciate your help, and taking the trouble to reply. I've not bothered doing rank since season reset as I didn't want to be wound up, and moaning on here. But, I do want to rank up before season ends. So I will be giving it good go today, and the next few days.

    I think that the season is about halfway through or now being "hump week" since the season is still 5 weeks right?
