PvZ World Concept: L.E.A.F. Dojo
Hidden in the mists of Asia lies the L.E.A.F. Dojo, where plants practice the ancient arts of Mushroom-Fu and other secret techniques. But everything changed when the Zombie nation attacked. This world is based on China's Kung-Fu level, and features weapon racks that can turn zombies into special warriors.
Tiger Lily
- Sun Cost: 275
- Tiger Lily attacks with her sharp claws, and her roars sends zombies running in terror.
- Family: Var-mint
- Appearance: A cross between Shrinking Ultra-Violet and Savage Spinach
- Tiger Lily makes sure to blossom anew every year. "Never change my stripes? Do I look like a zebra to you?"
Tiger Lily attacks any adjacent tiles. She occasionally roars, which sends zombies running in the other direction. Be warned though, this mean…
Tecku Talks: PvZ3 Beta Impressions
Well, I said I would have more to say if another game came out, and it looks like PvZ3 is on the way... sorta. If Popcap has taught me anything, it's that their strategy is to wait and wait and wait on a game until long after all the hype for it has died down, then release it and act surprised when nobody shows up. But I'm going off on a tangent. Let's talk about the PvZ3 Beta. I didn't get a chance to play, but honestly? What I see makes me feel sad more than anything. Not because I think it's all bad, oh no, I think there's a lot of good, but because that good is bogged down by trash that makes the game seem unplayable.
Alright, let's get a little less gloomy and talk about the good. The basic gameplay looks close the original two games, …
Tecku Talks: An Update from the Undead
Hey. So, someone messaged me and asked if I was going to do more Tecku Talks now that some new games were out. Well... honestly, probably not. I may do a post if something really speaks to me, but it's unlikely that this will be a regular series again. I mean, I kinda want to, but I have nothing to really talk about.
- 1 PvZ2
- 2 PvZ3
- 3 PvZ Heroes
- 4 Battle for Neighborville
PvZ2 is all over the place. At this point, PopCap is just confusing me on it. They've shown they can make new plants and new Roman zombies, but they won't make any new worlds. Penny's Pursuit is just another leaderboard Skinner-box. I've already beaten all the worlds, so why would I want to waste my time grinding for hours upgrading my plants? And really, that's what the game is now…
Complete Collection
Hey guys! Well, this might just be my last blog post, or at least my last until a new game comes out.
So, I finally got a complete collection of 4 of each of PvZ Heroes cards. It's been quite a journey. Kinda like this blog. I had a lot of good memories with this series, and with this wiki, and I think it's a nice time to retire. See ya!
Tecku Talks: Card Pack Value
So, if you don't know, today's daily challenge in PvZ: Heroes is impossible. PopCap is using the same Puzzle Party from last year but didn't take the nerfed Medula Nebula into consideration, making it literally unbeatable. Maybe PopCap will give us a bonus pack for this error. Speaking of which, what is the value of a pack, anyway?
Tecku Talks About: Pack Value
- 1 Value of an Average Pack
- 2 Factor: Non-Duplicate Cards
- 3 Examples on Using the Formula
- 4 Cost Analysis
This post will use some math to determine the average spark generation rate per pack. For starters, let's calculate the average value of any given pack, ignoring elements such as getting new cards, the small chance of unlocking a Hero, and bonuses from multipacks. Each pack has a guarantee…
