Strategies
With
Small-Nut should mostly be used early-game, assuming the player has this as a starting card, and also as a weak shield for early defense. He can be used as an extra boost for Mirror-Nut to deal direct damage to your opponent, and Smackadamia helps improve Small-Nut's durability.
However, as the player progresses throughout the game, they can find better alternatives for this plant such as Template:PvZHLink, Galacta-Cactus, or Template:PvZHLink, which have better stats as well as an ability.
Against
Due to his incredibly weak stats, any damaging zombie or trick can immediately destroy this plant. That being said, letting this plant hurt the zombie hero can sometimes be a good strategy, seeing how 1 damage can be a good trade-off for letting your Super-Block Meter build up so you can block a stronger hit later on.
However, this becomes really dangerous when Mirror-Nut is in the field, so prioritize on destroying Mirror-Nut first.
