A masterclass to Wall Plants (in PVZ2)

Wall plants may be the weakest plants in PVZ2, so I figured I'd give a relatively (wall plants are super complicated) short guide on how to make the most out of them. It should probably be fine enough.

Interesting. My pick is Primal Wall-Nut. It can bear three haymakers from Gargantuars. Plus, their cooldown time and cost are beautiful.

[@jet711]

I wish there was a reason to use walls more often in vanilla, but problem is there's just too many instant-kill/nullifying-effect zombies with little counters. E.g pvz 1, you had spikeweed to counter Zombonis and Catapults, or magnet shroom for jack-in-the-boxes and ladder zombies. Pvz 2 has stuff like football mechs, wizards, explorers, e.t.c all of which are spammed in such high frequency that their counters can't recharge in time, discouraging walls and encouraging hyper-aggro strategies to kill them as fast as possible.

[@fIorapetals]

I almost always like to bring a wall plant in my decks. A strong attacking force means the zombies may never actually get that far down, but it's better to be safe than sorry.

[@aRealComputer]

hey, this is overall a great video, however i do have a major problem in how you compare walls to stalls, as i believe that really misrepresents how walls work stalls are meant to reduce zombie progress, such as a sap fling slowing down their progress, a stunion preventing progress for a short while, and even primal pea reverting zombie movement walls replace the progress zombies make via movement with their hp, something you have a lot more direct control over (if you noticed, stalls will actually reduce progress in both aspects) making use of both field range (when zombies haven't reached your walls yet, and are still moving towards them) and defensive range (when zombies are currently at your walls, a naturally stronger range at the cost of needing to maintain a resource (your wall's hp) to continuously make use of) can be incredibly important to the success of a strong defense i hope i explained this well cause articulation isn't exactly a strong suit of mine, but i knew this 100% needed some sort of explanation

Something very important is since wall plants are for stalling Cold Snapdragon is the best plant to pair with any Wall. This magnifies everything especially Spikeweed. This results a in Pumpkin and Infininut being the two best walls in my opinion.

Ok, recently I found a use for peanut, it is the best wall for dealing with backing attackers, this great for jurassic marsh as the enemies get past the front line so the tankier backlining is auctually useful, also it helps with the level in modern day dust up with flower line at the back and lots of pteradactyls

[@JoSephGD]

I've been using Tall-Nut with Sweet Potato and Rotobaga recently in vanilla, and it's a surprisingly good synergy. Sweet Potato helps move zombies in Rotobaga's range, and Tall-Nut keeps them in that range.

[@thatsabruhmoment17]

I dont think Vamporcini is terrible, just people not using it with the right mindset. I use it more as a pseudo insta that does slight damage to zombies around it and then proceed as a wall there. Yeah, it's basically cooler tomb tangler. It can help deal slight damage to a horde, and then stall them out to group some of them up for splash dps to take advantage of. I do think it's a flawed plant, but every plant in the game might be better than the common consensus, it's just that they're good in specific niches while the more popular plants tend to be good regardless of situation But yeah Pea-nut sucks lmao

[@snakesmartyt4433]

It does damage at lv 1?

[@whydoesthethebrainignoreth6273]

Pea nut great with reinforcemint tho

[@Buglin_Burger7878]

Peanut does the same thing you praise Vamporcini for, damage, but from a longer range and if zombies reach it then it will act as a well. It is functionally a straight upgrade compared to Vamporcini in every way except instant damage but in those cases you want instant damage Vamorcini loses out to actual instas and fails as a wall due to the hoard.

[@GNVS300]

It's still better than Levitater

[@thatsabruhmoment17]

@@Buglin_Burger7878 if you're using pea-nut as a middle board disruptor like I suggest Vamporcini be used, pea-nut has to be placed closer to the house to take advantage of its shots which while has more damage potential over time, is different from Vamp's quick damage to *several* zombies at a moment. Placing a pea-nut in the middle of a horde is a bad idea since it's not gonna do much damage to the horde because it's gonna get eaten quick, and Vamp at least deals damage in an aoe before it gets devoured

Chard Guard + Blover trick works in most cases. When being timed correctly, it can instant kill any zombies including Gargantuars. Tall-nut + Celery Stalker can dominate a whole level in Far Future (when Gargantuar is not around), which is interesting. Tomb Tangler - although not from Reinforce-mint family - works like a wall plant after swallowing a gravestone (and absorbing gravestone's HP).

[@NeoBing]

[@Amosus2]

Blockoli has become my favorite wall as of late. The way he's drawn reminds me of old newgrounds, games like Toss the Turtle specifically. He has similar health to Tall-nut, 8k I believe? But he also blocks flying zombies like Tall-nut. His main gimmick, being stunning the zombies, is pretty good against hoards. Especially if you can only put down 2, since their stun affects the lanes next to them as well. A couple of them are pretty good against a garg, since they'll be stunned for a while. Unfortunately, they can hit stunned zombies. I don't believe it stacks, at least it didn't really seem that way for me. Makes his gimmick pretty meh, but I can kinda understand why? If they waited for the zombies to be ready, it would either: Never attack Or Never let the zombies free Overall: He's a pretty interesting wall. The only one I actually choose to get other than infi-nut. Glad I managed to get him

Pea nut is basically a tanky peashooter that is useful with limited seed slots as a multi use plant, and meant to be placed behind other walls, but in front of other plants so when the front line of walls get breached all your plants don’t just die. (Edit): also it’s plant food acts like both a peashooter and walnuts making it useful for hordes as it gains health and can wipe out a lane of weaker zombies
