Tip: When selecting a plant before the start of a level press the heart in the top left corner to add them as your favorite. They will then show up at the start of the plant selection thing so you don't have to scroll all the way down to find them.

Tip: Plants like Blover and Hurikale blow back and instantly kill flying zombies. Flying zombies can be the dodo riders in this world or any zombie that has been launched in any way (like chard guard) except spring bean(had to nerf the combo it was too overpowered). Knowing these game mechanics can help you instantly kill high health zombies like gargs that will survive past your dps plants.

Sun shroom is one of the best sun producers as it has a middle phase which produces normal sun but you can also plant food it when that happens it gives you a lot of sun and grows up immediately and you can plant more of them unlike a sunflower

Bit of a fun fact about shrinking violet, it oneshots imps. On top of that, it can freeze Arnold’s (gargantuars) meaning if it shrinks an Arnold, it kills the imp along with it

Pro tip: the shrinking violet completely annihilates small enemies such as imps. So if you get the imp pear and turn zombies and gargantors into imps and shrinking violet them they'll be deleted from existence. Also I'm pretty sure you shrinking violet twice to do the same thing.

Just a tip wolfy, you should lock in the blue book. So you can se different stats on the plant and you can read what plants does. It helps you to know what and how good plants are.

[@danielflorinduta4713]

In case you didnt sort it out, the ice cube on the zombies head is actually just another defense thats even tougher than buckets. So in this game theres actually 4 grades of armor. None, cone, bucket and something stronger like a barrel in pirates seas or a minecart in the wild west. Theres actually a 5th level of armor for like 2 worlds

[@Soul.Resonant]

Protected(Conehead) Hardened(Bucket) and Machined(Object related to world, like Skull from Jurassic marsh and Pyramid head have same defense)

[@ihavethebrainofarat2309]

Good way of explaining it is that there's 1-4 for certain worlds, but some worlds have armor that's 3.5 rather than 4 (bulkier than bucket but not as bulky as brickhead). Ice block would be a 3.5 meanwhile a 4 would be a barrel head or pyramid head for example. Jurassic Marsh has both with a fossilhead (3.5) and an amberhead (4). By this I mean 1s absorb the least damage (die quicker) and 4s absorb the most damage. Pharaoh zombie is another 3.5 or might be a 2 but there's also pyramid heads. Although the almanac says that Brickheads and additional world armor have the same amount of defense and absorb the same amount of damage, it's wrong as world armor absorbs less

Tip about Shrinking Violet: It can only be activated (excluding its plant food) when a zombie goes in front of it in the same lane. (So no you can’t put it in the middle lane and normally shrink a zombie above or below if nothing is in that same lane.) Upon activation it will shrink anything in a 3 x 3 area around it.

Wolfy, you can avoid ads by going into the quest log, go to the world category, and where it say’s how many levels you are from unlocking the next plant, click on that every time you finish a world level. Each time you finish a level, it gives you the opportunity to go to the quest log.

Hey Wolfy, you can tap the heart icon on the top left side of a plant in the seed selection, and it will make it appear at the top of the list so you don’t have to scroll all the way down to find it

[@gregormccormick6092]

14:26 Wolfy : "My new best friend." Why did I laugh so much at that line? Also you made a very good investment with Shrinking Violet, easily one of the best plants in the game and she will help a lot in the later levels, especially with her low sun cost so you can just throw one down and any big zombies within range become so weak you could probably just keep Reapeter/Torchwood for a very long time, also she will make Penny's pursuit so much easier in some situations, also just wait until you get some of the Modern day plants like Moonflower and Nightshade, they are really good.

[@vex9795]

I like that you keep using PvZ music in the first few minutes of the vid. Nice touch

[@devinwadkins194]

On the top left of the seed selection menu, you can favorite the current selected seed by clicking the heart icon. You can do this on your favorite like repeater, torchwood, shrinking violet, etc and then they will always appear at the top of the seed selection menu.

Shrinking Violet. Another S Tier Plant in my opinion. Really love her Also yes. Sunshroom is much better in this game. Second best Sun Producer, only beaten by Primal Sunflower, and she's very late game so. I highly reccomend And also Stunion is like Iceberg Lettuce but costs 25 more sun, has more range an works better with Fire Plants. Fecking Chilli Bean, he's nothing like Stunion

Really? I think Moonflower is the best one

Shrinking Violet's greatest strength is that if you use its plant food effect at the beginning of a wave of Gargs, they can no longer throw imps due to the fact that imps are deleted. Also if you have a a Sun Shroom with First Strike then it grows to full size instantly AND gives you a few hundred sun

[@Traxinator06]

This comment was on the last video, but wasn't sure if you saw it. IF you were eventually to get a premium plant, (Don't recommend until late game like Big Wave Beach and Jurrasic Marsh) You should definitely get one of these: - Gold Bloom: By far one of the most overpowered plants in the game, gives 400 sun instantly and costs 0 sun, the only downside being once you use it he takes over a minute to recharge. But it should help with getting sun early on. - Grapeshot: Essentially a Cherry bomb, but better, keeps the 3x3 explosion radius, but also launches grapes all across the board doing less damage, but still enough to kill imps and other small zombies. - Cold Snapdragon: Like snapdragon, only slows zombies and plant food effect freezes and does damage, love this one. But the downside is that you shouldn't use any fire plants with it because their effects will just cancel each other out. - Imitater: Same from the first game. - Electric Peashooter: Weak on it's own but acts like lightning reed and the damage chains into other lanes, also pierces through every zombie. When upgraded it's a powerhouse. Wasabi Whip: Bonk Choy, but has a fire effect and better plant food. P.S: Not every premium plant requires you to pay for seeds, you can get them by playing arena and Penny's Pursuit. P.P.S: loving the new editing style and been enjoying your videos a lot recently!
