In the original PvZ, Cabbage-Pult solely served as a peashooter replacement in the roof, as the roof is designed to prevent you from using all of the powerful plants a player in the roof would have accumulated. Simply put, Cabbage-Pult is entirely and intrinsically tied to the roof. So when they remove elevation from the game, Cabbage-Pult loses all purpose.

What if cabbage-pult targeted the furthest zombie, instead of the closest? That way it gets a simple, but unique mechanic and purpose: to soften up new zombies to be taken out easier with the rest of your frontline plants. Then buff the stats so it's better than peashooter, and voila, something that is actually interesting to use.

A small thing I'd like to add for the "lobbing over isn't always a good thing" is that even for graves it can be a downside. Since more often than not if there is a lot of graves using cabbage you'll usually never clear them all out meaning they can end up just blocking up half your lawn cause cabbage keeps lobbing over them to hit the one or two stray zombies instead of when it's needed to clear out the grave sitting where you wanted to put a wall-nut.

The half fire rate but double damage is secretly a downside. For example, if a zombie has 20 health left, both CP and peashooter can kill it in one hit, but the peashooter will recharge its next shot faster while the CP wasted half a shot on overkill. The fact that the CP can miss is also reduces its effective damage output. A peashooter can't miss as long as there are zombies in the lane, but if a zombie dies while a cabbage is mid-arc the shot is always wasted.

@GNVS300

It wasn’t always that way with Peashooter, back in the day the headless body could still be hit a couple more times before fading away. Also another advantage Peashooter has is you can plant him to narrowly kill a zombie if he only needs like one more hit but Cabbage can’t get his shot out in time, at least on low levels

@KLIXORthe

Жыл бұрын

that also means the CP can kill slightly sooner in certain situations, in theory. say a zombie has 80 health. two hits from CP is the time it takes to reload one shot, vs the peashooter needing the time to reload 3 shots. assuming travel time is the same it would mean you could kill slightly faster.

I still think cabage pult is a good and worth to use plant, mainly because of the plant food, you see, most lobber plant's plant food effect is firing out alot of projectiles and randomly falls around the map. This might be good if the plant has splash damage but a significant amount of projectiles can be missed and watsed. While cabagepult effect only shoot out enough prohectiles depend on the amount of targets on the map(include and obstacle that can block plants and can be destroyed such as: graves, octopus... ) but this mechanic allow the cabagepult never waste a projectiles while still does some good damage to both tanky single target or crowd of enemies

Cabbage-Pult in PvZ: Stronger damage output than normal Pea-Shooter at the same cost and cool down meaning it can kill Zombies and clear lines faster (assuming they aren't getting too close), also hits Door Shield Zombies as well as hitting Snorkel Zombies who are submerged, making you not have to possibly rely on Tangle Kelp and Fume Shrooms. The first plant you get on the roof meaning that it's the first line of real defense you have on the sloped surface, allowing you to not have to suffer from using Pea-Shooters or anything like that. Overall a really cool plant, and part of a really cool plant Trio of catapults, all of which have really interesting and powerful abilities (Kernel-Pult is able to butter Zombies and stop them in their tracks, and also become Cob Cannon. Melon-Pult over all is really useful and also has the Winter Melon upgrade which just makes it all the better.) . Cabbage-Pult in PvZ2: Same as PvZ1 for the most part, but no slanted levels means there's no real practical use for them outside of hitting zombies who may have something in front of them, but with Plant Food that's really not worth it as most other plants have some high damage output move when given Plant Food, such as the Pea-Shooter, or any other Pea-Shooter later in the game (ig the Plant Food for Cabbage-Pult hitting everything on screen for 200 damage is something but like, cmon...). The closer a Zombie is (namely like 2-3 tiles away) the longer it takes to kill it unless you have like 3 rows of them, making them entirely unreliable in these scenarios (It can be this way in PvZ1 as well, but I feel like that rarely happens unless you're really unlucky in your waves). Overall out classed by so many new plants that were introduced and doesn't get that much time to shine and is likely forgotten after some better plants are obtained.

I think another issue with Cabbage-Pult is that there is quite literally never a reason to use it over Bloomerang. If there was a level that had like four graves in one lane, Cabbage-Pult might see some use there since zombies may get too close to Bloomerang before it can fight back, but in Ancient Egypt you'll generally only see one or two graves on one lane (sometimes three but that's rare, and even then one of them is usually far enough back the zombies in that lane start getting attacked quickly enough it doesn't make a difference).

The cabbagepult was designed to serve as a lobbing equivalent to the peashooter in roof levels. But roof levels dont exist in pvz2. So the only real benefit it has over a peashooter is its ability to clear gravestones, which can also be cleared instantly with the FREE grave buster plant.

It’s very useful in the first stages of egypt because it can hit the zombie even if there’s a grave in front of it. A peashooter can’t do that. But I dropped the cabbage pult once I got the boomerang plant because it can hit both the grave and the zombie

Something that could have worked for cabbage pult and maybe some other plants is that they focus on high health zombies. If you gave cabbage a little more damage as well as focusing strong zombies it could be an interesting plant to work with. People use spikeweed to deal with weaker zombies so the damage dealers can focus the tankier zombies so this could provide a neat opposite niche.

I think the issue doesn't really stem from cabbage-pult so much as the amount new lobber/piercing plants the dev team added. Back in PvZ1, Cabbage-pults were Peashooters of the roof. All other options had some downsides that made the choice to pick Cabbage meaningful (Kernel-pult deals less damage ; Melon-pult and Winter Melon cost too much for early game ; Fume-shroom is impractical to use in daytime). It even had extra uses that made it relevant in other worlds, like targeting hidden snorkels or shielded zombies. Too bad the design team didn't think this through for PvZ2. They added a slew of strong enough piercing plants like Bloomerang and Laser Bean, and better lobbers like Akee and Dusk Lobber. At the same time, the returning plants were buffed: Kernel-pult got more uses (like insta-killing some flying zombies) and the 50 then 75 sun meta made Melon-pult and fume-shroom more viable as early plants.

so a peashooter

I feel like the purpose of Cabbage-Pult is that it is just one of the basic starter plants. Unlike PvZ 1, PvZ 2's selection of plants feels more "Journey Progressive" or feels like the type of game that has a better and more effective weapon/person/object than the last as you slowly go through the game. In PvZ 1, each plant has a special role to play in the game, they are all unique with different purposes. PvZ 2 however, is not the case, every time they introduce a new plant, it feels like the plant is a better and upgraded version of a previous plant, take Peashooter for example, there are so many other plants better than it, no less it's other counterparts. Once they introduced the new "Level System" to PvZ 2, there were already some plants that were...questionably better than others. After another month or so, I realized by then, PvZ 2's plant selection wasn't about strategy anymore, at least not really. Remember what I said about PvZ 1's plant selection? Every plant the game has is unique, has it's own purpose, and has no other plant that can do it better, or at least similarly. Yeah...just scrap that away from the PvZ 2 table, then you got PvZ 2.

I think you should make a video about plants who lost their use in the sequel. Plants who don't have a point in the sequel because their original purpose wasn't translated well. Cabbage-Pult was made as a roof Peashooter, but since that's not in the sequel they really had to stretch its purpose. And like you said it gets both outclassed by the default plant and multiple plants in the first world. I feel like its only purpose here is to be the defacto tutorial lobber.

I always have used Cabbage Pult over Pea Shooter because of UPGRADES. Which, although a large amount of people abstain from upgrading their plants, are still a valid part of the argument. While Vanilla PvZ2's upgrades can be extremely unbalanced, they can be essential in the newer player's first playthrough. When upgraded, Cabbage Pult can absolutely lap Pea Shooter in damage, and since it is unlocked at an extremely early point in the game, you often have a lump sum of Cabbage Pult seed packets. Rant/ rebuttal over.

Ever since release I've questioned why cabbage pult exists in PvZ2, its ONLY use in PvZ1 is to lob over the roof tiles. But in PvZ2 there is no roof level? When PvZ2 first released it felt so cursed to be planting any of the lobbing plants at all because of the lack of slanted tiles. Kernel pult and melon pult at least have uses in stalling and crowd control respectively, but cabbage pult is like you said a worse peashooter. No, I don't count lobbing over graves as a 'use', I just see it as a bonus for a plant. Example, if you look at apple mortar do you think its use is to lob over graves?

I love these newer styles of videos you’re doing. Keep this up!

cabbage pult could have a damage/speed scalling based on how far the project travelled it would be good at long distances and week at close distances, the reverse of peashooter straight shoot aproach, making both a great complement to each other it would be a great synergy.

Some information you might be interested in is that the pvz 2 wiki says that peashooter and cabbage-pull have the same dps due to the cabbage-pull having half the fire rate and double the damage.

another thing you have to consider for the DPS is that cabbage has high damage and slow ROF. That can often add up to a lot of overkill damage. If a zombie has 5 hp left and gets hit for 40 thats 35 wasted.

Even in the original game cabbage-pult was only really useful due to the roof slope. Sure lobbers had uses like going over shields and hitting snorkels but kernel pult does the same while also stalling, and once you get melon pult you'd never use cabbage again, just kernel and melon.

Idk if pvz2 is the same but in pvz1 it shoots past newspaper and screen door zombies which is an added bonus for cabbage pult unlike peashooter

Cabbage-pult is the only plant to have its firing rate increase through leveling up cabbage-pult fans

Yeah, I used this plant back when I was a fan of the PVZ franchise. It's flawed, for sure. Though the only reason I still used it is because, well, I didn't know it was considered 'not good' in-battle. So I went and used it. In PVZ1, I would pair it up with Kernel-Pult and Melon-Pult/Wintermelon-Pult since I thought it was a good strategy to have it as a back-up plant, thinking it would do extra damage to some zombies. I went along with it and it worked! Sometimes. There were some times where I struggled when using cabbage-pult in PVZ2. Nonetheless, I still pushed through regardless of it being 'pointless'. So what do I think of it? Meh, it's alright. It's not the best lobbing-plant in-game but it isn't the worse either. Though, I do agree with your points. This is just my perspective of using cabbage-pult at a young age.

The reason plants have a varied fire rate is so that there will be variation in the way the projectiles look when you have a bunch of plants and it won’t be the exact same pattern every time they shoot

cabbage-pult during pvz: I defeat big zombie while my entire family dies and i carry every plant. cabbage-pult during pvz2: pls protec me bucket zombie scary boy!!11!!

The thing i like about cabbage-pult is the power up it has when you give it the plant food. It targets all of the zombies in the field so it makes it easy to deal with big waves quickly

I always use cabbage-pult and this hurts my pride but this guy is right it doesn't work in pvz2

In all the years Ive played this game, its mods and penny's pursuit, I think Ive used it less than 20 times. It just didnt deal enough damage to deal with big crowds even when leveled up.

His boost is pivotal in the early campaign. Gets crept over by other plants quickly but this goes without saying.

Few things I can think of to make the cabage useful is to either give it an op leaf ability or buff it's damage and add more enemies with front facing shields that can be dispatched faster by hitting them directly with lobbing weapons. Lastly add splash damage, small radius and 50% or 25% splash damage for an early cheap splash damage plant

Looking at the bright side, Cabbage pult is like slow Peashooter but serves a bit purpose that prioritizes shooting zombies from the barriers like graves, but other lobber plants just outdo cabbage pult. Also in Ancient Egypt, they have Grave buster with 0 cost so we have more reason to pick other plants.

You should make a video on Kernel-pult also, since it has the same struggles as cabbage, with a little more usability

Also another thing about cabbage vs peashooter is that shots from peashooter will still travel straight to the next zombie when the original one dies so they're not wasted when fired excessively unlike cabbage where the shots will simply hit the ground unless another zombie happens to be nearby.

I want to put out that I will always pick cabbage over peashooter. In early world completions within the versions with keys (ex. Bbw with only plants up to iceburg lettuce going in) it is what got me through the early levels. The huge this with it is actually to do with plant food. Once you can replace it yeah, you do, but it's far better than peashooter imo simply because of its ability to go over graves and its plant food.

I genuinely prefer Cabbagepult to Peashooter literally just because of the animation. I love that lobbing spectacle!

I like to use it for Egypt levels with a ton of Graves or the grave spawner zombies cause it'll target them over the Graves which a peashooter cant

Wish there was a Torchwood for lobbing plants. Something to do with frost, maybe! (and if you're gonna argue "there's already Winter Melon for a freezing lobber!", consider they still added Fire Peashooter when Torchwood is a plant they had to bring over.)

Happy I clicked on this Video I haven't played PvZ2 in ages but it's got a special place for me. I remember everytime I redownloaded the game the moment Kernel-Pult or even Bloomerang was unlocked I'd stop using Cabbage-Pult 🔥😂

If cabbage gets a buff in the future (e.g. fire rate, plant food scales with levels), it would be more used and be better. If I had to change cabbage pult, these are the changes I would do: 1. Increase its fire rate from 2.85-3s to 2.35-2.5s. 2. Big cabbages would always deal 5x the damage of the regular cabage, even with levels. a. Big cabbages could probably shoot a second wave on level 3+ (more waves every 3 levels). 3. Splash damage to all the zombies on a 1x1 tile area (splash damage being half of the regular cabage. a. Maybe at level 6+, every 10 cababges could shoot straight with more splash damage (base 20 to base 30). i. At max level, ever 2nd cabbage will be shot straight, also it can Peirce up to 10 zombies. 4. Increase the accuracy, so it can hit faster enemies better. 5. More HP; it's a cabbage, a hard leafy plant that takes more effort to cut than lettuce. Base Hp increase is 300 to 750. a. It could probably get synergy with cold plants, being harder to get eaten, because frozen cababges are almost impossible to cut. i. The health increase with cold plants is +75%. ii. This only works if there is a cold plant on the lawn.

At least in PvZ 1, cabbagepult was good against the screen door zombies and others that carried a barrier. It wasn't better than kernelpult, which stunned often enough to be useful even if its base damage wasn't as good, but that was its use-case. Aside from being a version of peashooter that worked on the roof.

Iits sad because cabbage pults were once one of THE plants to go to for roof levels, and now they've been reduced to 'that plant you use at the start of the game because you have nothing better'

Cabbage pult will only be used if there's a world that has a landscape like the PVZ1 Rooftop. But then again, even if PVZ2 comes up with that world, we already have built high level enough experience and melon pults to just go straight melon or wintermelon pult.

I only used cabbage-pult and found him useful in ancient Egypt since he can shoot over gravestones while peashooter has to break every tombstone in front of him to get to a zombie if you don’t have a grave buster or there are more important graves to break cabbage-pult was actually useful but I don’t remember him being too useful after that

cabbage pult: the 'i am waiting for my pea shooter to recharge and i need to plant something' plant

i love finding breakdowns of random, specific aspects of games i know nothing about. do i know anything about plants vs zombies? other than i played it on my cousin's ipad once as a kid, no. was i captivated by this the entire time? absolutely

I've always thought Peashooter was better than Cabbage-Pult, with his Plant Food being the main reason. Also he's definitely useful for lobbing over graves given Bloomerang costs 75 more sun (and if you think that's a bad reason, then just look at the people who think Iceberg is better than Stunion because he's free). But then again, Grave Buster... yeah I'll give you that one. Also I still prefer him over Kernel-Pult, because while Cabbage has slightly less DPS than Peashooter, Kernel-Pult has DRAMATICALLY less DPS unless you get super lucky with butter. Sure using multiple Kernels in one lane makes them a lot better but most of the time I'd rather just use a different attacking plant in place. Also, Cabbage's plant food can reliably kill groups of weak zombies given it at least guarantees a hit on every single one, unlike Melon-Pult and AKEE (Kernel's does too, but Cabbage's does 5 times more damage). Furthermore he is quite useful for countering Barrel Rollers as Kernel's butter stun is actually somewhat of a disadvantage since it means he might get overtaken by other zombies, so he'll get hit less and may sneak through later on, which is dangerous if using close ranged plants (but then again there's still better options like Bloomerang). Also also, Blooming Heart is more useless.

Great video! I always felt something was just... off about cabbage. Also no one gonna talk about sun pod at 10:09.

I also used cabbage pult in some of the frostbite caves levels to avoid having to shoot at frozen plants, because proximity to snapdragon/pepperpult or the hot potato will take care of it fast enough. Sometimes it's good to have a cheap attacker

I only played PvZ 1, never any of the sequel stuff. So I was confused why people would dislike it. But knowing it was used in a setting without roof levels makes it clear. Just a case of a plant designed for a certain level type not being removed when that level type was removed too.

I never thought of Cabbage Pult as a good plant. Even in PVZ1 it's only used because you need a lobbing plant for the roof.

I think that it has salvation, it's just hidden. I am pretty interested on the ability to not only cross targets, but also damage them faster from far away, if i was a pz2 developer, i think ill make cabage-pult a plant that could ramp up damage the farther the target is, making it a plant that has some uses, more than the usual skipping tombstones bit, expanding on what it already has, instead of what it does not. Also great video, and congrats on 15k

I remember in PvZ 1 I completely moved from Peashooter to Cabbagepult even after the rooftop level because it had the same stats but with some advantages, like being able to bypass some zombies' shields or attacking the snorkels while they moved. I guess things didn't go so well for it in the second game.

Even in a meme build, it can't do anything. I can't believe i said this, but even Garlic has a gimmick and synergy with other plants

And even in the first game, it was unlocked for the roof stage, because of its unique challenges. Granted, so too were the other lobbers, but the other lobbers actually offered something to you.

The one use I can think of is that he can hit zombies that are behind the Dark Age's gravestones. But grave eaters are free, have a short cooldown, and by the time graves become an issue, I likely have enough firepower to deal with them anyway

i think the time variance between shots is there because having all the plants shooting at the exact same time would be weird to look at.

Cabbage-pult could have a slightly improved version that costs 150 sun but it deals 60 damage per cabbage instead of 40

The only use I have for cabbage-pult is in the beginning, when cooldowns actually slow you down and your choice in plants is very limited or nonexistent. I take both peashooter and cabbage-pult for faster rollout as extra firepower. Even when I get better plants, cabbage-pult along with peashooter work as temporary fillers. It helps to rush the early levels and get to the point where it gets outclassed faster. Its point, as an early-game plant, is getting outclassed and being redundant. Everything it does can be done by other plants better. It's a crutch and it's good at it.

One things not mentioned in the Peashooter comparision: lower damage instances with the same DPS is also generally better. You are less likely to overkill enemies by a lot, which can add up depending on the breakpoints on different enemies (which I don't know). Other games counteract this with armour often being more effective against a lot of small attacks, but I don'tthink PvZ has that?

The only reason why I think cabage pult is better than peashooter is because of its plantfood. Both peashooter and cabbage pult are awful, but at least cabbage has a redeeming quality
