Hey everyone! Progress on part 2 is going at its pace, but I just thought I’d clear up some common recommendations or questions regarding this challenge going forward! • Why are you using plant food if PvZ1 doesn’t have plant food? I didn’t think about this going into the challenge, but I’ll be sticking to using plant food due to how PvZ2 is designed around this mechanic. • Why won’t you use premiums from the first game in this challenge? The main reason I’m not using premiums is just to have strategies for this challenge be more accessible to everyone. There are exceptions to this rule, I can use them if the game picks them for me to use. But I’m limiting myself as much as possible in order to make this challenge as fun and “freemium” as possible! Also gem plants and one seed packet plant are exceptions to this rule. • Can’t you use [insert plant here], they were in PvZ1 China? And what about [PvZ2 plants that function the same as a PvZ1 plant that isn’t in the game]? The way I see it, plants such as Bonk Choy were designed as PvZ2 plants first, and were added to PvZ1 China later, so I’m not counting them as PvZ1 plants. Iceberg Lettuce, while possibly based off of a scrapped PvZ1 plant, was also redesigned as a PvZ2 plant. As for plants like Gloom Vine, or PvZ2 plants that have a plant food which acts like a plant from PvZ1 like Ice-shroom and Doom-shroom, I won’t count for the challenge either. A PvZ2 plant is a PvZ2 plant. I’ll update this with more questions and answers as I find more or come up with more. I appreciate any and all suggestions, but I’d rather you all have official answers before the next part! also i want to thank you all for subscribing but i MUST do it verbally so you will hear that soon
I am honestly 90% sure this challenge would be completely impossible back in the day. Torchwood is the only real way to get through ice age apart from jalapeño. Now that torchwood is a seedium it's doable.
FINALLY someone is giving spikeweed the credit it deserves, it works perfectly against the chickens and dynamite guys killing them with ease and no scratch on the other plants. It literally carried me through wild west along with repeater
The way you commentate over gameplay and encourage people to try this on their own by making it as “freemium” as possible is really good. It has this energy of a good friend infodumping about a game they like. Cannot *wait* to see more.
@@kingfish9512 you mean day 9 and day 20 (or 21)? those are locked & loaded levels, the plants were chosen for him, and it can pick plants he hasn't unlocked yet
Wow, utilizing Cabbage-pult's Plant Food on PS 24 was actually insane. I would have never thought that would be the solution. Also, EY EYO EYO "Ancient Egypt." got me.
Plants vs. Zombies 2 is a totally normal game with peak game design and absolutely no glitches whatsoever, whether they be visual, functional, or both, and it has only gotten better with every update. Damn good video.
Honestly I just for some reason really like this type of content. I don't know if it's the way you do it or how I just like PvZ2 played this way(not lvling, I love the game but hate what EA has done to it), or maybe the way you show the content(the commentary and also showing most of the content itself and explaining stuff), but all in all I love it. Massively underrated channel.
I did try this challenge once before, exclusively for modern day because I thought it was thematically appropriate. Never would’ve been craaazy enough to try the entire game like this though. Looking forward to the next episode ^^ Also your editing is amazing-
It's so surreal finding another PvZ fan that just so happens to play/know Cookie Run. I know that it's not an impossibility, but it sure feels like it. Either way, welcome to the club, brother!
Can't believe it's been little over a year since this video that introduced me to you, your commentary even on videos on different genres are always enjoyable. Hope to see more this coming 2024
I have ALWAYS maintained thst cabbagepults plant food is good enough for it to b taken when going through story mode and I'm glad it's getting the recognition it deserves
A couple things I remember from future areas is Lost City LOVES forcing you to use specific plants through conveyors and locked and loaded levels, and Far Future oughta be pretty doable
underrated as hell, this is so entertaining to watch and im not joking. its weird to see an actual original challenge idea for pvz 2. I can tell that your gonna be a good youtuber in the future :)
I don't play PvZ2, but this video ramdomly came up in my recommended videos. Wanted to just catch a glimpse, but I ended up watching the entire thing. Nice video! Also it's nice to see that this guy's channel had 300 subs before this video, but now it has 2,5k+! And I love the edit at 18:10, it made me laugh out loud.
Usually when I watch these sort of videos from smaller creators I don't know, I am always able to watch part 2 because the videos are usually a little older. So that's why it's so frustrating that this video is only days old and I have to wait for part 2 haha. Well, I guess I'll have to subscribe to not miss it...
Such an interesting concept! I’ll definitely be watching the entire series, and for that you have earned a sub! Also it just shows how much they did to make the game better than the original.
as someone whos ride or die pvz1 and not too big on the other games, i really love this! plus i never got too far when playing pvz2 anyway, so its fun to see someone get farther than i did with the plants ive known and loved for so long :]
fun fact:you can actully get the plants early even with the update it takes 4 steps step 1:open the Almanac step 2:go to a plant in world you haven't unlocked step 3:click/tap on the locked plant step 4:click/tap view world bonus step:then complete the first level to unlock the world
There’s a Rent a Plant button above the Let’s Rock button. Clicking on it gives you the option to watch an ad to get one of three random plants which you don’t have yet for that one level. Restarting the level brings up new plants. After beating the level you can purchase 10 seed packets with coins and 10 seed packets with gems. You can also get adventure plants you don’t have yet with seed packets. Therefore, you could abuse this to unlock plants early. Also happy 2k sub :)
Dang its been so long since i have seen/heard of about pvz 2 and this video is recommended to me. Dang brings back childhood memories man! Great video idea
20:51 Yeah, ground plants don't stop some zombies such as the bull rider when he's charging or the explorer zombie. But it's weird how zombies eat the potato mine still even though it's on the ground.
Fun Fact: One of the new updates will remove cannon aways for some reason, that means PS won't have any Minigames just like AE and PS should now be possible with only pvz 1 plants
I love the fact that PVZ 2 is slowly creeping to my recommendations, it's like a nostalgia punch to the face 😌✨ (Also CROB Poppin' 4 U music let's goooo 😆🍪🎤)
21:06, haven't played PvZ 2 in a while but I see they kinda fixed the camera for ultra widescreen phones, in older versions, the camera was still centered even on said wider screens on most newer phones, thanks to that, you can see more on the right during gameplay and you'll see zombies pop out from thin air when a wave starts to spawn zombies. Looks like they tried to fix it by panning the camera more to the left, and since they didn't bother to change the camera's behavior (like making the camera scroll less on wider phones), during the seed selection screen, the zombies would get cut off on the right.
You can in fact still skip worlds, if you go into the plant menu and scroll to the plant you want and then click to go to their world, it will jsut straight up take you to the world you want to go to, no key needed

dude i just started playing pvz 6 days ago and then you upload this god tier video
btw in a older version of pvz you COULD skip level 1-4 ( *insert your name here* 's house)
You can use ice pee it was in the first game
@@aaronmasschaele i can, but i won’t for adventure just to make the challenge fair for anyone
Thanks for explaining
as a pvz2 veteran, i appreceate all the throwbacks and explaining how the game has changed
Also, rip the trophies that they removed after beating Zomboss for some reason.
@@RGC_animation still in the almanac
My mom's daughter beat pvz4 in 37 minutes, he's my mom's favorite sister because of that
@@notrobloxburger yeah but new players can't obtain them anymore

I am honestly 90% sure this challenge would be completely impossible back in the day. Torchwood is the only real way to get through ice age apart from jalapeño. Now that torchwood is a seedium it's doable.
Torchwood is actually free and buffed, so Torchwood is basically broken.
@@destinyofwar1892Torchgod.
torchgood
theres no way you need torchwood or jalapeno to beat ice world, you must be terrible at the game
@@s.c5714 What else would you use to reliably unfreeze plants?
FINALLY someone is giving spikeweed the credit it deserves, it works perfectly against the chickens and dynamite guys killing them with ease and no scratch on the other plants. It literally carried me through wild west along with repeater
Simple and basic, an excellent plant
I'll still pick spikerock
Man I've been using bonk choy the whole time
I use both bonk choy and spike weed like a true madlad
I CANT DO 22, SOMEONE HELP

this was a lot more entertaining than i expected, kudos! excited for part 2
YOOO THANK YOU! love your content dude!

You got such a charismatic way to narrate trough the adventure and such a fun concept of a challenge I adore it ! definitely gonna stick around
thank you so much :)

@@theoriginalalex it's almost impossible without catus in neon mixtape tours final boss
@@theoriginalalex dylan brings up a good point, what about bosses in worlds like neon mixtape tour, that are pretty much carried by premium plants
I am sorry but
Is that EY EYO EYO from some song?

Your commentary and editing are gold. Keep it up 👍
True
Just seeing this channel now. Hoping you end up performing well on the platform
thank you!!
Can’t wait for part 2! Seems like a challenge- especially when you can’t defrost with snapdragon, hot potato, or pepperpult
An zomboss being impossible
It's so surreal finding another PvZ fan that just so happens to play/know Cookie Run. I know that it's not an impossibility, but it sure feels like it.
Either way, welcome to the club, brother!
hahaha, i guess that’s me huh? thanks for watching :)
also i know where that pfp’s from
Blind faith is ez. And 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑Y E T I F A R M🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑
you are criminally underrated wow
thank you, that means a lot!!
I always thought about this idea, glad somebody finally made it bc I’m lazy lmao
Can't believe it's been little over a year since this video that introduced me to you, your commentary even on videos on different genres are always enjoyable. Hope to see more this coming 2024
I have ALWAYS maintained thst cabbagepults plant food is good enough for it to b taken when going through story mode and I'm glad it's getting the recognition it deserves
TH-cam sure did a good one recommending your channel!
guess i’m getting favored by the algorithm hahaha
@@theoriginalalex seriously no matter where or what i watch, this video will 99% be in the reccomended
It would've been so fun if you recorded your actual reaction to finally beating Zombot in Pirate Seas
You know what? I think I’ll watch more of these vids. Great job!
A couple things I remember from future areas is Lost City LOVES forcing you to use specific plants through conveyors and locked and loaded levels, and Far Future oughta be pretty doable
10:30 got me dying XD
Victory potato WHAT THE FU-
“Victory potat- WHAT THE F⬛️K?
Same😂😂😂
When I saw it for the first time, I laughed a lot, even if it was night.
VICTORY POTA- what the fuck?
I haven't played pvz 2 and 1 for probably 1 year, and now I'm gonna start playing pvz 1 again thanks to this video
Heads up: twin sunflower & winter melon are gonna be essential to the run
SO UNDERRATED!! I can tell you put a lot of effort in this!! I subscribed and I hope to see more amazing content soon!!
underrated as hell, this is so entertaining to watch and im not joking. its weird to see an actual original challenge idea for pvz 2. I can tell that your gonna be a good youtuber in the future :)
This is a great video, well done with it! Subscribed & excited for the other parts
Excited to see where this goes! It seems that you have a good future ahead of you.
Been getting into PVZ2 modding myself lately, having you in the background makes for a good time. I admire your positivity/energy. Keep at it.
ayyy, that’s a unique compliment! thank you!
I can't wait to see part two and to see how you deal with frostbite caves' gimick, anyways loved this video!
The video quality is amazing! Please do part 2 and also I hope you start trending.
this is a really good video man, the "yeehaw" sound effect was funny to me lol
I don't play PvZ2, but this video ramdomly came up in my recommended videos. Wanted to just catch a glimpse, but I ended up watching the entire thing. Nice video!

i’m very happy you stayed through the whole thing to catch that edit, hahaha
20:51 Yeah kinda weird that plant like Potato Mine can't stop the Bull, while Infi-nut's Projector (which is the FULLY UNDERGROUND plant) can.
please continue this soon, im invested in this now
underrated!! havent seen good pvz nor pvz2 challenges so this made me like pvz again
This video was awfully convenient!
The other day I was trying to look for a video like this lol
This channel is one I’m going to stick around with for a while. (As Winter Melons biggest fan I hope he performs well in the later worlds.)
A well done video with a rather unique challenge. I look forward to seeing where this series goes.
I’d go in depth about how I enjoy and will enjoy watching your videos but instead just keep up the good work I’ll be awaiting part two!
appreciate that a lot :)
Wow, you're so underrated. You are actually really good. If you get famous. I'm an OG.
Dude you video making is stellar, your channel is gonna blow up in no time!
6:15
Merge Dragons is not likely to make you relax if you play it for 10 minutes every day, despite what the ad tells you.
Usually when I watch these sort of videos from smaller creators I don't know, I am always able to watch part 2 because the videos are usually a little older.

2:09 the most relatable PvZ 2 youtuber
Such an interesting concept! I’ll definitely be watching the entire series, and for that you have earned a sub! Also it just shows how much they did to make the game better than the original.
both have their pros and cons, but they’re both replayable!
as someone whos ride or die pvz1 and not too big on the other games, i really love this! plus i never got too far when playing pvz2 anyway, so its fun to see someone get farther than i did with the plants ive known and loved for so long :]
If you count pvz1's Chinese spinoff (endless edition), the following plants can be used:
-bonk choy
-laser bean
-dandelion
-snapdragon
-ghost pepper
as really cool as that is, i think it’d be a bit of a stretch hahaha
@@theoriginalalex ok, but maybe have that as a backup for if a level isn't possible with the OG plants
fun fact:you can actully get the plants early even with the update it takes 4 steps
step 1:open the Almanac
step 2:go to a plant in world you haven't unlocked
step 3:click/tap on the locked plant
step 4:click/tap view world
bonus step:then complete the first level to unlock the world
i hope you climb the charts, these videos are awesome
dudeee i’ve never heard that expression before, thank you!!
This is a realy good vid and it will be interesting later on since there are only 8 other Pvz 1 plants to get (counting lily pad and tangle kelp)
This is now my favorite PvZ2 challenge because this guy just redeemed my boy Cabbage-pult
your content is really fun! i wanted to say how much i appreciate you putting all the music you use in the description. not enough people do that.
Am I the only one who agrees he can use chomper
No i agree also why can’t he use the PvZ levels that cost your sweet money? It’s from PvZ still
No I agree
What about meeeeee
It’s kinda like a purple Venus flytrap.
12:41 that's so smart for what I thought was one of the hardest levels in the game.
There’s a Rent a Plant button above the Let’s Rock button. Clicking on it gives you the option to watch an ad to get one of three random plants which you don’t have yet for that one level.

I like this challenge idea.And nice editing.Extremely underrated
Wow, this is a great channel. You’re editing is great too, I wish you luck on growing your channel!
Holy shit, this channel is so underrated… Was laughing my ass throughout 🔥🔥
Dang its been so long since i have seen/heard of about pvz 2 and this video is recommended to me. Dang brings back childhood memories man! Great video idea
16:21 if i recall correctly, if zomboss dashes into a plant using its plant food he’ll be stunned
Now this, is good quality PVZ2 content! 👌
glad you liked it!!
@@theoriginalalex Please make more! It's hard to find good PVZ2 challenges nowadays. Keep up the great work! 😊
@@fanster2763 of course, i’ll keep at it!
7:08 I thought that I would simply watch this one video and never look into your channel again, but you mentioned battle cats. Respect
tough, but i respect the honesty LMAO
The way you use the semantics to make the video more interesting instead of "oh well technically I'm still winning the challenge" is great
This seems like it's going somewhere big concider me a subscriber
20:51 Yeah, ground plants don't stop some zombies such as the bull rider when he's charging or the explorer zombie. But it's weird how zombies eat the potato mine still even though it's on the ground.
Very cool idea, also great video!
Fun Fact:
One of the new updates will remove cannon aways for some reason, that means PS won't have any Minigames just like AE and PS should now be possible with only pvz 1 plants
This was a really feel good video and I look forward to the next one.
Aye dude I loved the vid! Especially your style of commentary! Instant sub from me!
thank you so much :)
an interesting take on a pvz2 challenge, im excited for part 2!
I love the fact that PVZ 2 is slowly creeping to my recommendations, it's like a nostalgia punch to the face 😌✨
(Also CROB Poppin' 4 U music let's goooo 😆🍪🎤)
i'd say you should use torchwood, since hes not that much of a seedium plant when you get him by opening the game 7 days in a row
That's dope & Interesting, glad to see another PvZ 2 challenge videos...
Bro this brings me back to my childhood 🥹
i didnt know of this channel until yesterday, But this is amazing! It has a nice welcoming vibe to it. I cant wait for the next part!
this is a great series so far, can't wait too see how this goes!
the trick at the level at 15:03 was really impressive
Nice job I think I'm go to stay here for awhile and keep up the great work
this was a really good video I really enjoyed it an found it well paced and interesting to watch, keep up the great content!
If you keep up This type of content i Can gurantee that ill stay around
Its really refreshing just watching a chill pvz vid with a good idea behind it
14:01 I don't think many people think about this challenge when calling cabbage-pult trash
definitely not lol, i was just goofin
can't wait for part 2, this looks great so far
Fantastic video! It’s really fascinating since I played this game when I was really young (seriously screw ea for making us pay for PvZ 1 plants)
Now this is high quality content
10:29 - "Victory Potat-"
What the f-
Day nine is a normal level
But Spring Bean haters are about to eat good tonight cuz we ain't usin' em
Is not like potato mines or spikeweeds cant take handle take basic zombies for us
As for imp canons, spikeweed can takeout how as many as they fire 🔥
You are the most underrated youtuber in the world you are so funny and creative you have earned a sub man❤
21:06, haven't played PvZ 2 in a while but I see they kinda fixed the camera for ultra widescreen phones, in older versions, the camera was still centered even on said wider screens on most newer phones, thanks to that, you can see more on the right during gameplay and you'll see zombies pop out from thin air when a wave starts to spawn zombies.

Why does this part make me laugh so much
19:36 Wall Nut: Haha yea 😂🤓

You can in fact still skip worlds, if you go into the plant menu and scroll to the plant you want and then click to go to their world, it will jsut straight up take you to the world you want to go to, no key needed
