Commentary:
Last week we had Sling Pea; a plant which only targets the five (5) closest zombies. This week we have its opposite; BoomBerry; which only targets the last zombie in a lane. We didn't think of this combination but we really should try it out.

Some players advocate plants which target the closest zombies - Homing Thistle, Sling Pea and so on. Others advocate pushing the zombies back - Hurrikale, Tumbleweed, Chard Guard.

Bottom Line:
BoomBerry gives you a lot of firepower for the cost. The problem is - can you handle its drawbacks?

Perks = Knockback / Heavy Watering (Seeds recharge faster.) / Boss Buster (Damage to Zomboss.)

We do not get a preview of Penny's Pursuit before it is released. So what you see is what players get.

We also try to vary the strategies from week to week and showcasing different plants and strategies and ideas. Using the same strategy week after week would be boring to see.
