Plants: Use the right team composition
So, there is this whole Zombie are better than plants thing going on. Although I can't deny that the zombies are better one offense with their 4 old classes and that their new classes are slightly better rounded than the Plants, a lot of the problems you may experience as plants come from your Team composition. Why? Well, lets make it simple. Currently, to many people spam Kernel Corn and their is a lack of Citrons and Sunflowers. The Citron is the best character to take the Garden by far, since the ball mode makes it hard to hit and two assault Citron that play tactically and use their CC effectively can easily take over a Garden. Also, did I mention that Citron is the ideal counter to Scientist, Z-Mechs, Imps and Super Brainz? Learning to become a good Citron will make these classes much easier to handle. If there where more Sunflowers charging into the Garden with a Citron or Peashooter and be ready to sacrifie their lives for the greater good, the teams would do way better. That doesn't mean that Kernel Corn is a bad character, I think he's the second best capture class. However to many people (and I am guilty of it too) just use him like a Cactus and spam the Garden with the Shuck Shot and Butter Barrage. If you're team is composed of a bunch of squeakers (which happens to me every single game on both Plants and Zombie sides), just get 1 or 2 friends to help you, it will make the game much more enjoyable. That doesn't mean that I think that a certain Zombie tank could use an HP nerf because he outclasses the other one by far (yes, I'm looking at you, Super Annoyanz)

Post patch yes I have tried, I think I managed to build the same teleporter three times, it got destroyed 5 times and I died about 10 times...we had another Rose trying to help build it.
Please don't bother telling me all the plants had to hold my hand and defend the teleporter with me, how would the objective be won then?
I wont try again, anymore. Class is total trash, tickles the enemy...
Your opening lines say it all, you can't give everyone a tutorial on which classes to play and how to play them. Brainless zombies don't need that, they have double the health and double the firepower.
You obviously haven't even played Citron to say it's a counter to the Mech, the stun doesn't stop primary damage, it only stuns the abilities of the Mech for 5 seconds, amazing...? No seriously, that's amazing...
Balance is NEEDED, plain and simple.
