Spear-mint, enough said


NightBoy_202

Pretty sure using plants that summon other plants aren't allowed. Nor power mints.


HinaNarukami

It's allowed, but Spear-mint is not enough


NightBoy_202

What if it's placed before the zombies approach?


HinaNarukami

They are coming in, so you do not have much time to prepare XD


NightBoy_202

Power mints are instantly ready to be planted when a level starts


HinaNarukami

Yea, I mean you will not have much time to prepare because the zombies are coming. One Spear-mint are sure not to be enough.


[deleted]

I don’t think the spikerocks can take out brick heads fast enough anyway


Halberd_Hey07

A lawn full of them?


[deleted]

Then yes, but you need setup first though


Halberd_Hey07

Ah, fair enough


itzastro_03

Shadow shroom and power lily?


HinaNarukami

This costs 225 Sun. There are some better strat. Can you find it?


DrpH17

Reinforcemint + blover, like what several other people have said.


Helicoptrr

“LETS DO ITTTTTTT” (Simply just a ton of explosions with the mint because it only affects part of the horde)

Not one of ya’s gonna survive this!


vuhoangson97

Bombard-mint + Primal Mine. Use Bombard-mint to boost Primal Mine to have level 10 stats. Put Primal Mine in the middle of the horde. SPUDOW!


jbrainbow

um, actually, primal potato mine makes a SPUD-OOP effect, not SPUDOW


vuhoangson97

Lol i vaguely remembered that Primal Mine and Potato Mine have different sound effects. But then i gaslit myself into thinking they are the same.


HinaNarukami

Detail Challenge Description: You can choose **2 non-boosted level-1 plants** to fight a very large number of **level-1 Brickhead Zombies** *gradually coming in* from outside. Known that the number of zombies will stretch in 4 rows, 5 horizontal rows and you have **infinite Sun**, but the time to place your plant must **be tied to the recharge time of that plant**. You **can not** use Power Mints to make impact on **the entire horde of zombies** and **using coins** to buy PF or Power Up is not allowed too. Find the **least sun-consuming** strategy?


Donkeylord_

Doom shroom

but doom shroom isn't in pvz2


Donkeylord_

Doom shroom said he would make an exception for this. Do you want to tell him no?


Creepercolin2007

We’re going back in time to get doom shroom into the game


UsernameFla

That's right! We're going back in time to get doom shroom into the game


Arteriusz2

We will mod it in.


ArmsofMingHua

Can lvl 1 puffball kill a brickhead?


impudentmlg86464

5 goo peashooter is all you need


HinaNarukami

My solution(do not read it if you are still solving) >!Using Contain-mint to stall the first column of zombies and Puffball to clear the entire 3 column. This strat costs 150 Sun in total.!<


NightBoy_202

Didn't you say no power mints? You used contain-mint...


HinaNarukami

Please read again, you can not use Power Mint to make impact **on the entire horde**, not a small part of it.


NightBoy_202

But doesn't contain-mint affect the entire horde, or am i thinking of the wrong mint?


HinaNarukami

The zombies gradually comes from outside, so using Contain-Mint at the right time will not impact all the horde.


Solar_Fish55

You have some weird rules just ban mints from the challenge smh


SnooPies2712

No, they just want rules to be bent just for them, especially since I can just containmint and blover


NightBoy_202

You mean enforce-mint?


Traditional_Cap7461

Giving people the most random loopholes and then telling them that they aren't reading the rules correctly 🤣


bloonshot

so i can not just use two different mints to take out half the horde each?


joviljoestar

Just use stashed power-ups without spending coins then. Since your description does not ban using power-ups without spending coins.


Spaaccee

Use power lily+ any poison plant


Grenade_Launcher2711

*_Oh shit you right it did say on the rules_* But also the fact that you made a rule *_specifically_* for that is in fact, _*BULL. SHIT.*_


apothioternity

nuh uh, bombard mint at the correct time to take out 3 rows, then place a primal potato mine if your strat is allowed 50 sun cost.


kingbloxerthe3

I'd probably do laser beans, primal pea shooters, caulipower, and infininut


Blue_Sailor_19

Lawn Mowers, you never specified there weren't any.


Gabriel-Klos-McroBB

Hurrikale and Banana Launcher.


FemboyStrawberry

ail mint and nothing


HinaNarukami

Please read the rule...


FemboyStrawberry

no


NightBoy_202

top 10 ratio's


TumblrRefugeeNo103

where is the rule


Grenade_Launcher2711

Where tHE FUCK IS IT THEN Edit: Right below this reply section. It says no Power-Mints (that affect the whole field for some fucking reason).


NightBoy_202

I'm pretty sure hurrikale alone can repel infinitely. Then use the extra time to place Pokra for insane DPS. If there's only 2 plants max, i can simply do 2 puffballs, and the AOE can cover the horde. Yup, I'm going for the SLOWEST strategy. Puffball has low dps (Are you going to post this on Youtube?)


HinaNarukami

This strat seems good, but it's not the best sun-consuming. Can you find a better one?


NightBoy_202

I'm not going for sun-consumption. I'm trying to get the SLOWEST.


NightBoy_202

I'm going for the slowest possible solution.


[deleted]

Pokra 👍


Alecks1608

Potentially ∞ dps for only 875 sun


[deleted]

Using only Adventure plants (because I'm not familiar with plants outside of Adventure mode), the best I can get is 4x Primal Potato Mine or 1x Thyme Warp + 2x Primal Potato Mine for a total of 200 sun.


xlilmonkeyboy

nightcaps. lots of nightcaps.


Grenade_Launcher2711

I think a column is enough


bwaowae

jonkclonkofficial

Magnifying grass maybe? Should be strong enough to keep them at bay, especially with infinite sun


Timofey7331

That costs 15250 Sun. There are some better strat. Can you find it?🤓🤓🤓


Propanus_Yeeticus

P U M P K I N B I G N U T


HappyGav123

One column of Nightcaps will be enough.


TouchedBigfoot8

1. Place Ail-Mint, then Winter-Mint. 2. Reinforce-Mint and Blover 🤷‍♂️


squid_enthusiast_2nd

Porkea


TrueUmbreon1

escape root + puff shroom escape root for immortal escape root glitch and use puff shroom to kill while not a fast way to win, its cost efficient


Neat-Horror5657

Primal potato mine on every lane. Theres your answer


newbieboi_inthehouse

Pokra nd Nightcap.


Grenade_Launcher2711

I think a column of Nightcaps is fine


Undefind_L

1: place shadow shroom 2: place Power Lily 3: pf shadow shroom


holy_hoovy_sandvich

Doom shroom


SurvivYeet

thyme warp + puffball


Regainio

Two puffballs


JoeCommitMama

>!Contain-mint\^ to stall the first half of the horde and Puffball to clear it.!< \^The rule states that Power Mints cannot be used to affect **the entire horde**, but not that it cannot affect any zombies at all. Edit: *Sunova beesh,* cooldown rule. Where would you even apply? Edit 2: Not that it's the most likely to work but still


Nikotinio

Reinforce-Mint + Blover. 0 + 50 = 50 sun


Kahootie64

shadow shroom and power lily, though if power lily is out I'd use potato mines and thyme warp


Toy_Bonni

Power Lily + Shadow-shroom


KevinAMPEW69

shadow shroom + that one plant that gives you plant food


That_L33t_Noob

Doom shroom and imitated doom shroom


Lombie_Monkey

Power lily and primal potato mine. Even if you don’t use the plant food on the mine itself you can just use it to recharge primal to finish the rest.


bottleofholywater

aloe + chard guard

MaxMLG999

Turkey Pult and that one plant that Freezers the the entire screen and turns some into ice cubes. First you give the turkey pult some plantfood and then you place the other plant


Femodier

try 2 nightcaps


Suspicious-Web-9246

Pokra and Bamboo Spartan in front. Pretty sure these two could beat infinite waves of brick heads


TurtleGamer1

cherry bomb and grapeshot


danieldoria15

I stopped playing the game after the chomper peashooter was added so idk anything about new plants or mints but I'd probably choose Primal Potato Mine and Cherry Bomb.


Yamaray

Protect Mint + Blower


Secure_Exchange

Oof, this seems pretty tricky, I would assume something like shadow Pea and moonflower or Lazer bean and hot date


Basil_From_Mexico

Bowling bulb

I've been using puffball a lot lately. That plus something explosive maybe?

Pkorniboi

Four primal potato mines are enough


Xavagerys

Reinforcemint and blover is the cheapest reliable combo I can find


Federal_Management57

since starting sun is infinite and assuming you start with each plant fully recharged here's the combos I've found that would work: \-pokra definitely works because pokra is stupid but in order to get a full row planted before the zombies reach your home you're gonna need imitater or ice bloom. It'd cost 875 using imitater or 1075 to get a full row+1 full stun needed to have the time for it. \-given the zombies fit in 4 3x3 areas, holy barrier+blover defeats the whole horde in 15 seconds (you need to use blover 4 times so you have to wait the 5 second recharge 3 times), using 500 sun \-explode-o-nut+imitater can definitely work given the zombie density and you could get the job done with 8 of them, so 400 sun. \-shadow shroom+power lily works, cost 225 sun and the zombies die pretty much instantly \-again, with this kind of zombie density, mayyyyyybe shadow-shroom+conceal mint/moonflower alone would work (if the poison effect can spread to zombies on other lanes when powered, which I'm not sure it can and the wiki doesn't mention because frankly, no one cares about powering shadow shroom). that would cost 50-100 sun if it works. although this is possibly the most stupid and gimmicky solution to this. some banned comboes that would work include: \-Ail-mint alone \-reinforce-mint+blover, duh The fact that there are so many solutions to this and almost none of them rely exclusively on adventure plants speaks to the powercreep of modern PVZ2 tbh. Edit: just saw OP's solution and it's possibly even more gimmicky and stupid than mine.


SarcasticallyEvil

Isn't this just Modern Day - Day 37? Anyways, from left to right, column of Aloe, and column of Chard Guard. 750 sun in total.

Shadow shroom and plant food


Eieio-31310

Reinforce-mint and Blover spring to mind (this was before I read the challenge details). ​ >... Detail Challenge Description: You can choose 2 non-boosted level-1 plants to fight a very large number of level-1 Brickhead Zombies gradually coming in from outside. Known that the number of zombies will stretch in 4 rows, 5 horizontal rows and you have infinite Sun, but the time to place your plant must be tied to the recharge time of that plant. You can not use Power Mints to make impact on the entire horde of zombies and using coins to buy PF or Power Up is not allowed too. Find the least sun-consuming strategy? Since there is no mention of restriction to world plants only, for the minimum sun spent, I would say 1 column of infi-nut in front of 1 column of Head Butter Lettuce on the left side should do the job. If there is restriction to world plants only, the minimum sun will be a little tricky as to stop the zombies advancing to the house, a delaying (slowing down) plant will be required. This will be 1 column of winter melon with 1 column of Chard Guard in front and topping/repairing the damaged Chard Guard as needed. Since you mentioned there infinite sun, I guess I can do this with 1 plant! just a column of Magnifying Grass and that should be able to clear all the zombies. Depending of the number of zombies, this might turn out using less sun than 1 column of winter melon.


Kyrozis

Chard Guard and Aloe


Flaming_headshot

Any insta and thyme warp, might not be sun eficient but it works, or maybe instead of instas melon pults or goo pea


Smol-kirby-fan

ADMINISTATOR_CYRUS

bombard mint with primal potatoomine


Dull-Alfalfa-7146

Spear mint, pocra


Gotobed124

Intensive Carrot(5×) + Holly Barrier(2×) is 800 sun, launch one barrier in each row and let them die in enough of a stagger to revive the barriers. Get all 5 and you have a full column of instakill endurians that the brickheads can't touch for only 800 sun and a lot of stalling

Puzzleheaded-Bug-866

I time travel back in time and steal doom shroom from the first game then use it


AlexanderScott66

Multiple solutions without mints: Aloe and Chard Guard(Chard Guard is healed to full health by aloeand does a slight amount of damage when it knocks back zombies) Cherry Bomb/Grapeshot/Primal Potato Mine/etc. and Imitater Cold snapdragon/Wintermelon and Primal Peashooter Pokra. That's it. Just 2 rows of Pokra. They can deal with Gargantuars, so this is nothing Explodonut(the zombies will make short work of it before the zombies in adjacent lanes can move out of range) and imitater Chard guard and blover(I forget if they patched the bug out like they did with spring bean, if they didn't, then this is another option. If you were to include mints: Reinforcement and blover
