Normal Upgrade Ideas - Plants

Here are some ideas I threw out the window for upgrades that won't end up at the end of a prize map. They can be rewards for reaching each Grand Master rank like normal promotion 'till Master. Note that they're not named & don't have upgrade points required yet. Also, reply what other normal upgrades you'd like to see or what I should change about ones I propose.

Sunflower

  • Sunbeam can now heal allies hit by its beam.
  • Heal Beam can now be used while sprinting.
  • Heal Beam can now heal any plant nearby the beam.

Chomper

  • Each Chomp heals Chomper by 2.
  • Burrow is quieter & less visible.
  • Spikeweed is less visible & reveals nearby zombies' location.

Cactus

  • Big Bulb Barrage increases Garlic Drone's speed & deals more damage
  • Zombies nearby Cactus while using Garlic Drone will be revealed.
  • Potato Mines are less visible.
  • Petal Propeller lasts longer & faster.

Peashooter

  • Exiting Pea Gatling doesn't delay your movement.

Kernel Corn

  • Butter Beacon won't be seen by zombies.
  • Butter Beacon buffs all allies' damage from primaries.

Citron

  • Peel Shield will activate when using Naval Laser
  • EMPeach deals a little bit of damage when stunning enemies (more for Z-Mech)

Rose

  • Jinx is larger & can hit more zombies.
  • Arcane Engima's aura is larger.
  • Goatify locks abilities longer.

Nightcap

  • Spore Strike is larger & can hit more zombies.

Snapdragon

  • Blazing Trail acts like a shield.

Oak & Acorn

  • Acorn Dash acts like Sprint Tackle & sends Acorn farther.

    They seem good.

    I want upgrade that have Spore Strike hypnotize-effect by rapidly hitting like Rose's Time Snare, like Hypno-shroom.

    1.Last time I checked spore strike has infinite pierce.

    2,If blazing trail becomes a shield I think plants should have zombies highlighted through it

    3. Being able to make zombies vulnerable in butter beacon's large AoE without them knowing seems a bit much

    4. I really do think chomper needs regen on hit. Super Brainz in combination with upgrades regens health by simply breathing on someone

    5.Spikeweed revealing zombies doesn't seem fitting imo

    A lot of these upgrades are good, but some of them are arguable. One of them is easy to point out "Heal beam can be used while sprinting" Which would be too strong in PvP.  "burrow is less quieter and visible" Less visible yes but more quieter, that's a bit much. People need to know if a chomper coming their way, it moves quite fast. The last one for me would be "peel sheild will activate when using navel laser" I can understand its easy to get hit when navel laser is active, but at long range that can be deadly. If it was added it should be a 4 or 5 cost.
