Plants vs Zombies 2 - Zomboss - Seedium Showcase - Fila-Mint - May 2024

Fila-Mint - was offered between May 12, 2024 through May 19, 2024.

Fila-Mint is a member of the Fila-Mint family. mint.
Fila-Mint costs 0 Sun.
Fila-Mint does 150 damage to each zombie on the lawn. (+150 damage per level.)
Fila-Mint's bolts will bounce two times. (+1 bounce at levels 4 and 7.)
Each bounce only does 50% damage. (+25% on levels 5 and 8.)
Fila-Mint plants will be boosted for six (6) seconds. (+1 second per level.)

Commentary:
Fila-Mint doesn't sound all that impressive. The damage is fairly weak and Fila-Mint feels more like a softener than a zombie eliminator. But that's only at lower levels. Once Fila-Mint levels up, the damage becomes respectable and if there are a lot of zombies on the lawn when Fila-Mine is planted, there is a good chance most, if not all, of the zombies will be eliminated. Isn't that what we want from our mints?

Bottom Line:
It's not a sexy mint. It's not a tier 1 mint. This mint won't wow anyone with its effects when first obtained. However, on those levels where Fila-Mint plants are required or where other plants are banned, Fila-Mint and its family of plants make for a solid backup plan.

00:00 | Difficulty 3 = Zoybean Pod
02:17 | Difficulty 3 = Pokra + Draftodil + Dazey Chain
04:11 | Difficulty 3 = Fila-Mint = FAIL. You'd think this strategy would be an easy win. Wasn't even close. Not exactly a good sign for the Mint of the Week to fail when using a strategy of only its plants.

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.
