FAQ
- How can I play this game?
Tutorial: • [NO LONGER WORKS] How ...
- Will you cover the other plants?
Yes, I'll do every plant in the game.
- Why is the sound quality so bad?
That's how the game is, there's nothing I can do about other than replace the music.

Jester in international version: I am the destroyer of strategies. You must prepare around me or lose.
Jester in chinese version: I can only reflect like three projectiles.
Something tells me the Chinese devs REALLY REALLY hate Jester
Everyone hates jester
But intetrstingly the Chinese equivalent of jesters (kung Fu world)come earlier than in international
@@rizkidary837 they're a lot easier because they have cooldown between reflections, so they dont nullify certain types of plants completely.
Hammer and nunchaku: I got ya homie
I think the inconsistency with Icy Currant might just be a carry-over from Electric Currant. I've seen Chickens manage to dash right through the electric fields just fine, in fact it's a fairly frequently occurrence. Certainly helped to make that Zomboss fight at the end of the Wild West Expansion just that little bit more insufferable.
That battle is so dumb I wish the gave us at least a peashooter
@@DiegoGarcia-fv2ue that ruins the gimmick of only hypnotized zombies being able to attack zomboss
That level is the only level that i just couldn't beat.
It is so finicky, electric currant and spikeweed does nothing to the chicken considering they spam chicken wrangler at the halfway point.
And when you finally reach the last stage they just spam gargantuar.
Awful!
I even pre boosted hypno shroom from zen garden and i still couldn't beat it.
The strategy that is available on the internet is so RNG dependant, one loose chicken and you're done.
I spent like a good two hours just tinkering with the strategy, not to mention the tens of thousands of dollars used for power ups.
Next time it comes thru I'll either not play it at all for the sake of my sanity or boost every plant that is used in that level. Hypno shroom, spikeweed, wallnut, and electric currant if it's even possible.
They should give us endurian instead of wallnut to give us at least a fighting chance.
@@Megajaybreaker4 well in that case just give us endurian.
It would make killing the chicken so much easier.
And it wouldn't ruin the gimmick considering it cannot attack the boss and they already give us spikeweed and electric currant.
chinese version just likes an incomplete mod, some are pretty strong, but some are so waek even if they are gold (plant division: white, green, blue, purple, gold) - just to show "look we now have a new plant".
dont care that so much, we dont know how the editors think either :(
well, have you noticed that? it's a episode just for trolled purple/gold.
The tuliptrumpeter interaction with turkeypult is the silliest thing ive seen in any pvz game
seriously, what the hell
Okay, but hypnotized zomboids were really unexpected. I wonder how this interaction even works, I don't think they would code this on purpose
If I had to guess plants and zombies are assigned to a “team”, and hypnosis simply swaps their team. So a hypnotized zombie switches to the plant team, but since zomboids are already on the plant team, they swap to the zombie team. That’s just a guess though.
It was likely an accident in the coding.
@@qualitytimewithted5160 And because zombie with hypnotized effect in the code can't eat nor take damage from plants they just walk pass your defence.
@@FourthEgo Perhaps Popcap of China didn’t realize the coding While Talkweb never fixed it..
Tuliptrumpeter at first sight: Meh, another projectile plant that isn't very good...
Heals: That's actually nice.
Level 2: Okay, now that's interesting.
Level 3: OMG, I love this plant.
Without levels it’s an alright alternative to the OP healer named “Aloe”
instantly becomes busted. WAIT DON"T USE THE TURKEY PULT
I wish it was in the international version. Of course it would be an arena exclusive which would be annoying but it would open up so many interesting strategies that aren't available with caulipower or hypno shroom
Level 5:I WILL USE THIS PLANT RIGHT NOW
@@Squeakybro lol
9:17 I like how it plays the pvz theme when it’s fed plant food.
Funfact : There's actually no things such a banana tree,
While the banana plant is colloquially called a banana tree, it's actually an herb distantly related to ginger, since the plant has a succulent tree stem, instead of a wood one.
And the banana is the berry not fruit.
Berries are a type of fruit, ones with seeds inside, so blueberry is very accurate naming
7:05 I don't know if this exists in pvz2, but in pvz1 zombies have a random speed stat so that could be the reason for the inconsistency
If you watch carefully, you can see that the middle balloon zombie wasn't damaged on the first tick, therefore wasn't slowed and got much farther in that time, letting it get by with its balloon intact. Whether this due to a slightly different speed or just a tiny difference in initial spacing when spawned, that's definitely what's responsible.
I believe the random speed was only in some pvz1 minigames
I believe not due to zombie having the same speed if they are the same one
The first one was like that due to the different walking animations for normal zombies in pvz1
they removed the random speed in pvz2 its all the same now
@@KogasaTatara514
I believe the actual cause is a bit weirder.
From what I can tell, the way that Electric and Icy Currant are programmed to deal damage is different from Spikeweed. This is because while Spikeweed only begins its attack while targets walk over it and deals consistent damage with exposure, the two Currants are always attacking. This sounds fine, but the time between attacks is rather noticeable, and the hitbox of said attack isn't nearly as large as Spikeweed. This causes an effect where zombies can walk through the AOE without taking damage because they entered the area between damage ticks. This is the exact reason why a Chicken can dash through a Currant sometimes but never will with Spikeweed. Same with variants like Weasel. These enemies move just fast enough and have such small hitboxes that they have time to pass through the AOE before it hits them if it ticked over just before they made contact. Really stupid, and really frustrating, but it kind of makes sense, at least from a logical standpoint. A simple fix would simply be reducing Currant's damage per tick but increasing the rate at which they hit. But of course, nobody likes Currant, so they'll never get attention.
This is probably my favorite series on TH-cam at the moment! I think it’s very interesting and fun to watch these! Keep up the good work Flag :)
Wow thank you!
flag, can you say im cool? id appreciate it.
true
@@flagzombie Of course man!
@@centralkaufci lmao
Can I just say how brilliant your music choices are
Super Mario Odyssey? Club Penguin? Chowder Bookin' Cook?
This is S-tier quality content
Thank you :)
It’s pretty cool that you used music from extreme pamplona. I haven’t played the game for ages
6:09 Icy currant is so cold, it can freeze the game itself.
Lol
Good one
We've seen a few design choices in the Chinese version that are strange to say the least, but Eggplant Ninja being unable to hit flying zombies might be the most baffling yet. I can't think of any reason for that to be a thing.
its simply too good so they had to make it slightly less good
because the devs have a crippling addiction to making flying zombies spoiled
This guy deserves a rest after making such high quality videos 😃
Yes, but he has the all plant rankings soon! Guy doesn’t give himself a break
I really like the idea of a plant, that when given a plant food, has an entirely different ability!
Edit: Y'know Ultomato sorta counts actually! When given a plant food, it basically turns into a Doom Shroom!
lava guava counts..?
@@minty_macaron It’s a temporary. I meant, sorta like a buff that changes the purpose of the plant. Think what happens to torchwood and cactus, but they change their entire ability if that makes sense.
@@nickk3077 so tocobility from the first pvz 3?
@@berdyking7967 Never really paid attention to PvZ3 that game doesn’t look very appealing.
@@nickk3077 true, but tocobilities are pretty cool.
i love how tulip thrumpeteer makes a cute little sound every time it attacks and the plant food plays the menu theme!
I really like the detail you put into overanalysing these plants!
Keep up the good work, This is a really good series!
Thank you!
Crazy Dave approved
Great video keep up the great work
Thanks Dave.
Note how Banana Dancer still has Coconut Cannon's sound effects
Banana Fan Dancer is the definition of “Reaction Skills 100”
you are prolly one of my favourite youtubers to watch probably ever, your videos are INSANELY REWATCHABLE please never stop
That's really sweet thank you!
I could never agree more with a 1 year old comment
@@LowQualityCarbink same
Flag zombie never dies
He always come back
Ironic
Ironic since you identify yourself as a grim reaper
Agreed
Indeed
I like it that tulip trumpeter plays the PvZ theme with his plant food, probably meaning he helps play it on the title screen
There's something so intriguing about seeing and learning about the Chinese version of PvZ2. Great content regardless!
the tulip trumpeter's healing form is so cute
Can't wait for part 7! These videos really makes me relaxed, It just feels satisfying for some reason
I just realized how detailed the bios for the Chinese exclusive plants are 😅
Love your overanlyzing videos Flag
Say ever tought about making your own top list ?
Like your own ranking of each PVZ game from worst to best ?
Its always interesting to see what sort of plants the chinese edition creates compared to the english one, makes me wonder if there is a fangame with almost all the plants from across different PVZs
I know that there's a group of people working on Plants vs Zombies Universe, which is supposed to be a pvz game that includes plants and zombies from all the different official games including the Chinese versions. It totally sounds like a huge undertaking and so far it just seems they have some of the Ancient Egypt levels/zombies/mechanics from pvz online playable in a very early build but I'm not sure how far along they are or what's done since I normally don't keep up to date on game news. They have a yt page but I'm not sure if they have any other spots where they post news
Bro the fact that Hammer and Nunchaku zombies freaking reflect MUSIC SOUNDS 💀💀💀
Nunchaku and hammer zombie:*reflect sound using hammer
Physician:wait, that's impossible
Banana Dancer is just, a very beautiful plant for me ! In fact, her face actually resembles Blooming Heart's :)
that banana tornado plant is a great concept if only these chinese devs knew how to program her
The return of the greatest and most informative series on TH-cam
Personally, assuming Auberninja makes it to the English version, I think Auberninja will be decently good. Not too overpowered, but can still pack a punch, or shuriken in his case, when needed.
It most likely will be a Spear-Mint plant.
Youd think they'd have her level 3 be 5 seconds so it'd cut the cooldown in half again, but for some reason they bumped the attack cooldown from 2 to 8 so it only becomes a 1 second decrease??
Yeah, banana dancer is kinda garbage
The heian age music in the beginning is just..
✨✨✨✨✨✨AaAaAaAaAaA❤️❤️❤️😩😩😩
Good choice in kirby music, I immediately started recognizing the sountracks you were using
Tuliptrumpeter: Can be reflected
Banana Dancer: Can't be reflected
Me: Sound can be reflected, but wind can't
The devs: hmmm yes , total logic there.
My 2 Cents On The Plants
*White Melon Sumo Wrestler* - Just a worst Chard Guard. Half as much damage and can't knock back Gargantuars. The plant food ability is Fine ig
*Icy Currant* - wasn't a big fan of Electric Currant cuz you have to use Garlic and Garlic sucks in pvz2 due to their being so many zombies that can instantly kill him. So I kinda feel the same with Icy Currant
*Tulip Trumpeter* - very weird. The healing is very weird and the damage is Fine. Its cool ig
*Eggplant Ninja* - It's a copy of Boophone Geigi. Nothing special.
*Banana Dancer* - why does it have to wait for 13 seconds to attack after 15 seconds of resting? Super weird.
Are you watching the vid and typing in real time? I respect that
@@cyber0806 yes
But garlic is good, your just bad.
@@berdyking7967 There is just too many Instant kills in Pvz2 that your setup would get ruined
@@grandom7116 I personally don't bring garlic into a level with instants, or bring removal to kill the instants/ plant food garlic, but that's just me.
Just because it is not mentioned in the video Eggplant Ninja is considered a great plant because it could potentially deal a considerable amounts of damage to the zombies. Yes, I mean it. It deals damage per frame so if you place it in the front (causing it's bullets to fly slower) its bullet will hit the zombies for more frames therefore dealing insane amounts of damage. Also if you speed up the game it does less damage.
There is a supplement to the attack of Eggplant Ninja. His darts stay on the court for the same time each attack. That is to say, the slower his darts fly when planted on the right, the more damage they cause to zombies per second
Cool! I didn't know that
I cant wait for the best plant video.
Me too
Saaame
I voted for lily pad lily pad op
Your videos are very informative, keep up the good work
I like the fact that when fed plant food , tulip trumpet will play the main theme of pvz
LOVE THIS SERIES i play china version but deleted week ago i knew all plants but still love this!
It seems BananaDancer has some wierd code relating to firing.
Maybe she checks every 14 seconds~ if there is a zombie in rnage, Which would explain why T3 took her sleeptime down, but attackrate barely changed.
Sumo Melon: Enforce-mint
Icy Currant: Winter-mint
Tulip Trumpeter: Enchant-mint/Reinforce-mint
Eggplant Ninja: Spear-mint
Banana Dancer: Contain-mint
Sumo Melon's attack is extremely weak tho... it's mainly used for defense
@@ninjapirate123 so? chard guard is reinforce-mint instead of arma-mint
@@ninjapirate123 typo i meant enforce-mint not arma-mint
@@ninjapirate123 endurian and blockoli also do damage, both are reinforce-mint plants
@@ninjapirate123 CHARD does deal dmg albeit subtle
Tuliptrumpeter is actually a tulip a flower seen in the netherlands
As a netherlander. I can confirm this is true
10:20 and 10:35
Plant : They betrayed us
tuliptrumpeter is literally an amalgamation of scaredy-shroom, caulipower and [insert healing plant]
Peach
Aloe
Will you ever tackle already existing plants? Like Peashooters Level 1-5 and Costume Plant Food Effect Special.
Yeah,he said he'll do it like 40 times now
Hoho
Player: Is the family friendly on?
Hypnotize Zombie: Let me check.
So, it's with these particular set of plants where bugs and glitches really started. Even the animation started to downgrade.
You're making excellent content. Keep it up.
10:25 Intriguing
Your videos are always interesting. thanks for making me enjoy it
So Banana Dancer
Costs 375 sun
Can't even one shot a buckethead
Takes 30 seconds to attack
And has a garbage plant food ability
This is actually the worst plant in the game
jackfruit be like : my skill more worst than yours
Banana Tree from PvZ OL:skill issue.
It's funny how the tuliptrumpeter is actually playing a sousaphone
Does anyone else remember when eggplant ninja was like the most op plant ever?
Yeah
I know I'm late to this comment, but how?
T-t-t-three hundred sun? For a inconsistant citron? Its funny how chinese plants are eather very powerful of paper miche week.
Hey Flag! I love the PvZ2 China videos. Keep up the great work. But something I always wondered is how you manage to do these showcases. Like which version of the game are you using and where can I find it (im terrible at looking things up i can never find what im looking for)
Everytime i see a video from this series i get super happy, love your videos!
Thanks!
I think the Shield Zombie is acting like the bull, it’s shield is getting disabled because it *is* being knocked, it’s just knocked forward instead of in the proper direction
So many plants can't damage imp cannons
i hope there was a pun at least on par with "electric current" in chinese when they made fucking "icy currant"
6:08
nah, he doesn't crash the game; he freezes it to death!
You analyzed my favourite plant, myself
Even at level 2, tulip trumpeter already reached its power spike and still better than caulipower
You know it really feels like we came a long way with these plants like we had a bit absurd ones sure like monkey-fruit but we never really had plants as complicated as this like aside from icycurrant every plant is complicated in some way shape or form here
6:08 *insert wii crash noise*
Flag zombie you should do the over analyzing for PvZ online
Who the hell changed all the Chinese Exclusive Plant Names.
Egrett Flower --> White Egret Flower Fighter Plane
Firebloom Queen --> Flame Flower Queen
Frostbloom Queen --> Crystal Orchid
R.A.D Missiles --> Mischief Radish
Auberninja --> Eggplant Ninja
It's honestly stupid.
You're back :D
Man, the chinese version has so many more plants. Everytime I think 'this must be the last one' I am proven wrong. They may be broken in many ways, but they sure are plentiful.
There is like 50 more plants left
Banana dancer is the definition of terrible. I legit thought this thing was gonna have a niche role of a low sun attacking troop that had a very slow but somewhat decent power but omg it is absolutely terrible.
Notice how the face of tuliptrumpeter is similar to thyme warp's just the teeth is a little bit different
grettings from Peru, love ur content
I love that u use Sonic Unleashed music.
Fun fact:place two banana dancer in the same line then give two of them the pf, if you do so, the zombie which can be attracted will be thrown of the lawn
This is amazing, after you over analyze all the plants and zombies of the Chinese version of PvZ 2 can you over analyze the new zombies in PvZ2 Reflourished.😀
There is already someone did it
9:15 i thought u were gonna say that she will sing the menu screen and damage zombies in a 3x3 hitbox
8:17 one must imagine trologbite happy
these videos should be called "how many plants can bully jester?"
Tuliptrumpeter hypno projectile being able to be deflected and hit a soy turkey is the epitome of PvZ Chinese programming
10:26 that is the most painful betrayal ever you can't kill either
Damn that tulip trumpeter is broken af
tuliptrumpeter isnt even using a trumpet, its more like a sousaphone
Flag singlehandedly reviving the PvZ2C fandom
10:20/10:35
Note to Self: Don't combine Tulip Trumpeters with either Turkey-pults or Zoybean Pods in levels with reflectors.
Johnny the melon is not happy with his entire family dieing to zombies
Thanks to you using Kirby and the forgotten land music I want to replay that game now.
I don't know what my problem is, since Icy Currant appeared, I keep saying that Icy Currant is cute X3.And then when I looked back at Icy Currant's face, it was almost like Anya's face 🗿,btw thanks for info :)
(I don't know if that sentence is correct or not, because I use google translate)
Now i really want to see you just playin around with these guys in a few levels
10:22 imagine being the first person who ever died to this, that’s hilarious
Tuliptrumpler at lv 2 + soda palm = yippie we won.
missed opportunity for the eggplant ninja to be called auberninja
Hey Flag zombie, you should try tulip trumpeter's reflected red note on tiger grass's tiger minions since i'm pretty sure they function similarly to zomboids
Tiger Grass isn't in this version of the game yet.
@@flagzombie What about the Illusions from The Magic Mushrooms
@@BirdieBirdieWoofWoof It turns them into regular hypnotized zombies. It just adds the purple and bubble effects on them, they still fight for you.
@@flagzombie wait, so there isn't two Gatling peas (mega and cinesse)
@@theoneandonlymastergunner Nope
I've noticed that if Banana Dancer's plant food effect sucks in zombies that were sliding on ice tiles, it'll throw them away like flying zombies.
THANK YOU FOR DOING THE EGGPLANT!!! I LOVE YOIR VIDEOS!!!!
Just wanna say thanks on everyone's behalf for making this, flag, it's very interesting to find out about stuff from this version of pvz2 that seems almost alien to us and you do a very good job explaining everything. Great video as always
Thanks :)
