Chomper is actually a pretty decent plant in pvz1, just not in the way it was intended. This is because of its 5 second recharge. This fact essentially turns it into the pvz1 equivalent of magnifying grass, being a high-cost but low-recharge instant plant. If you have a lot of sunflowers on the field, chompers can easily take on entire levels on their own.
Not that it would have been usefull for this particular challenge considering the high maintenance for this strategy, but it could be very handy in the future.

[@Pihsrosnec]

isn't it more like that one plant from pvz2 that acts as a peashooter bit turns into an instant if a zombie is near?

[@joaopedro-mm5lf]

[@vlassispolitis-a]

Like a single target guacodile

[@bauhler]

​​@@PihsrosnecYeah, it is more like that one plant. I didn't choose guacodile because it's a pretty forgettable plant. Case in point: you yourself forgot it's name. Magnifying grass is a much more well known example of converting sun directly into damage, hence why I chose it for comparison.

[@Pihsrosnec]

@@bauhler fair enough but I'd probably forget what magnifying grass is called also

[@bingoviini]

Whack a zombie would be really easy on mobile, as you can "whack" multiple places at almost the same time.
Just spam your screen with 8-10 fingers like a todler and the zombies die incredibly fast

[@crunchylettuce5446]

Chomper is actually a good plant, the whole point is that he is essentially a permanent instant. Instants don't make him "invalid" because he is a different type of gimmick instant himself. It's easy enough to get rows of Chomper going and he synergises better with wall plants than almost any other plant in the game, as well as spikeweed. I doubt he was any fun to use in this challenge, but Chomper is in no way bad in any of the ways you mentioned.

Cherry bomb actually would've been useful for the wack-a-zombie, since it's 5x speed it'll explode instantly, therefore you have an instant 3x3 click essentially.

[@jasonwolnik7029]

I think that it would've been too time consuming to select the seed packet.

[@thatoneguy9582]

yeah but by the time you click on the seed packet every zombie has sauntered on three quarters of the way down the fucking lawn

[@HoloCure_Gamer_45]

In 5-10, you can plant on other lanes too even if the Zombot's AI doesn't send out zombies on those lanes that were cleared by lawn mowers. It could have made the run a bit shorter than your playthrough, but I like to see different strategies.

[@gamingchannelhack]

I was impressed by the bushes on the right. When the zombies came, it was hard to guess which row they were in

[@dkienenb7953]

Great video! Commenting to boost this in the algorithm!
Also, the zombies not spawning in a lane is tied entirely to a zombie triggering the mower and not how many plants or otherwise exist in a row. You can fill the other lanes with catapults for more damage each zomboss cycle.

[@magicjinn]

One problem with this is that eventually Zombot will destroy all lawnmowers, after which the game seems to switch to looking how many plants are in a lane. If I planted a lot of catapults on all mowerless lanes, and then Zombot destroyed the lawnmower with an ice/fireball, he would start spawning zombies on all other lanes again, which would most likely kill me.

[@Randomonus699]

here bro, you dropped this 👑

[@tehbestbear]

[@samcertified7178]

That's crazy, I experimented with playing Plants vs Zombies on five times speed a while ago and revisited it again a few days ago and now I'm finding out there's already a video on it. At first it kind of made me disappointed but it feels kind of validating to know that I'm attempting a real challenge that someone has already established. I've been cheating a little though cuz I'm using an auto clicker for my sanity but regardless of how legit it is it's still a fun challenge.

[@onionknight7995]

while i love the ingenuity of taping mice together, theres a little strategy called 'double click butterfly' where you use two fingers on one of the mouse's buttons and alternate clicks between the two fingers.
if you have a mouse that has an adjustable / non existent debounce time, you can achieve clicking speeds up to 25-30 clicks per second.
...or youre like me and dont double click while butterfly clicking, while achieving 16-19 clicks per second
these methods are largely used by the minecraft PVP community, where before 1.9, how fast you clicked really mattered.
thought this might be helpful for anyone else crazy enough to try this challenge.
and if youre even crazier youll find clicking methods such as drag, bawl, and bolt clicking, achieving clicks per second up to 180.

[@magicjinn]

All of these ideas are very cool, but the only problem is that it's hard to move your mouse around while butterfly clicking (you could technically use a different mouse for that) while also actually focussing on the zombies on screen. I think cps are only a part of the equasion, reaction time is also a big part (especially for dashers). Also, I personally just really liked the idea of The Wackinator, it added a bit of wackyness to the video. I still have it in my room somewhere as a momento.

[@onionknight7995]

@@magicjinn it's absolutely better content, but as for the butterfly clicking, its honestly just like anything else- its hard at first but once you practice for a bit you can track and click just as well as if you were normal clicking.
The Wackinator was a very creative solution, I must say.

[@3141minecraft]

If you have a NASA pc, try 100x speed. That means level 2-5 would be nearly impossible even with auto clicker

[@magicjinn]

Ha! That would make 1-2 impossible as well. This challenge originally started out as 10x, but I had to scale down as it was wayy too ambitious.

[@3141minecraft]

​@@magicjinnyeah, you are right. I am pretty sure that applies to a lot of levels, not just 1-2. Also, I am pretty sure you can't even play this unless you have NASA PC because 100x speed means 1 second of real time is equal to 100 seconds of in-game time, and trying to run the game at speed will crash it.
If you want something harder, you should combine challenges. For example: 5x speed in brutal mode

[@V1_the_scug]

The bushes are actually from the Xbox version of pvz

[@magicjinn]

True, but if I'm not mistaken they're actually present in the files on PC. I could definitely be wrong though.

[@我妻選]

[2-5] I've got lowest of 7.2 CpS when strained, 8.2 CpS at best legitimate and 9.8 CpS by scratching the mouse button against the finger bend (which exhausts the entire arm, but is more effective).
Taking in account how in the game you have to actually move the mouse around as you react, and that not only will it strain but you have to keep up for extended period, this is kinda hell to play.

[@niceuuuuuu]

did u try butterflying on ur other hand and aiming with ur dominant hand? I think that'll work best

Hadn't tried that, but I did use my dominant hand for aiming, with the Whackinator (yes that's what I call it) in my other hand.

[@he3004]

it's far past the time to give you advice but you could have blocked the underlight of the second mouse to aim with just your dominant hand while you went ham on the other mouse
