  • PVZ2 challenge runs are a staple of the community. And I don't have one done yet. Let's change that, because you know? That seems pretty important and helpful to me. Run was fun though, so I can't complain. Don't have much more to say so just watch. Also let me know if you want more of this challenge, because I will totally beat the main game 100% if I can (and, if you are really lucky, RFL after!)

    Idea: pvz 2 nuzlock where if any plant dies, you aren’t allowed to use that plant for the rest of the game. This includes insta plants, so you effectively can only use one cherry bomb throughout your entire play through. I feel like this would be interesting and I’ve never seen anything like it before

      Add in an exception for the starting plants (sunflower, peashooter, wallnut, and potato mine) and I think that would make it a little easier (as loosing all your sun-producing, damage, defense, or instant use plants could easily spell the end of the run. (Maybe potato mine isn't infinite, but I feel like the others kinda have to be)
      Maybe something involving growing extra plants using the garden that provides plant-food effects. Provides that plant immunity from destruction for that one level, or brings it back for that specific level, and indefinitely brought back if you manage to beat the level using it.

    Technically due to how you get plants in conveyor levels, each plant uses a different seed packet thus being allowed in the rules of the challenge, as it is one plant per packet.

    doesn't nightshade turn into a ranged plant if powered by a moonflower? like for the lock and load modern day thing with only 4 plants? seems like that'd help with explorers/balloons

    • @DoberMapping
      @DoberMapping ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Yes

    • @jonathantonner4263
      @jonathantonner4263 ปีที่แล้ว +50

      Nightshade deals much less damage when attacking from range sadly

    • @Late0NightPC
      @Late0NightPC ปีที่แล้ว +35

      It does, though I don't think it would help here. Unpowered Nightshade has a very short range, but deals 200 damage per leaf and throws a leaf every 4 seconds. Powered Nightshade on the other hand does get full range, but deals 100 damage instead, also every 4 seconds while regrowing a leaf every 5 seconds. For reference, a basic peashooter hits for 20 damage roughly every 1.4 seconds, meaning Nightshade's just barely more effective when powered than a peashooter
      Explorers have 350 HP on the update Creeps played, it later got nerfed to just 250, meaning it would take 16 seconds to kill a single explorer, and balloon zombies have 900 HP, so it would take almost a minute to kill one via a powered nightshade. In theory that seems good, but because it was his only source of damage, that means he wouldn't be able to attack any other zombie in any lane for that period of time.

    Hey I’m not sure if you take suggestions but I have one if you
    Can you beat pvz2 with only peashooters?
    Rules
    1:beat every zomboss (or as many as you can)
    2:you may only use peatshooters (no support plants at all) (the only exception being sunflower and it multiple variants examples include sunshroom, twin sunflower, and primal sunflower)
    3:Gem and seed packet peashooters are allowed (these include fire pea, peanut, shadow pea, etc)
    4:No leaving up plants
    Besides that everything is on the table
    Now what classifies as a peashooter? Any plant the either A fires peas or B looks a lot like peashooter (not mint class as the would allow things like torchwood to be allowed.
    Anyway just a quick thought I had that might be fun

Sure, it wouldn't help against weasel zombie, but at least explorer cant burn nightshade when it's 3 tiles away.

    The pre-planted endangered Guacodiles(It was either lvel 5, 6 or 7)
    Twin Sunflower(Level 4, makes no difference)
    Threepeater(Level 5, placed at the 2nd row)
