Blockbuster (Plants vs. Zombies 2)

Blockbuster is a seasonal vine plant, introduced in Blockbuster's buffet season. Like other vine plants, she can be planted around other plants to provide additional protection. She can also send spiky vines to immobilize and continuously damage the first zombie in her lane. She prefers targeting obstacles over zombies and also deals triple damage to them. She can only send one vine at a time, and the vine can be eaten by zombies behind her target. If the spiky vine is eaten or its target dies, Blockbuster will need 5 seconds to send another one.
== Origins ==
Blockbuster is based on the plant with the same name and appearance from Plants vs. Zombies Heroes and Plants vs. Zombies 3.
Her ability of prioritizing and destroying zombie obstacles comes from her ability to destroy any gravestones in both her lane and any surrounding lanes, and also from her Plants vs. Zombies 3 ability.
== Upgrades ==
=== Plant Food effect ===
When fed with Plant Food, Blockbuster will attack all zombies and obstacles on the screen with her vines for 5 seconds. This also activates the Plant Food effect of the plant on her.
=== Spear-mint effect ===
When boosted by Spear-mint, Blockbuster deals 100 additional damage per hit, her vines have double toughness and her plant food effect lasts 6 seconds longer.

== Strategies ==
Blockbuster is an excellent support plant. She can be planted over other plants to save space and can also stun single zombies. Her damage output is not so great when coming to defeating zombies, but be sure that Blockbuster will completely obliterate any obstacles including graves, barrels, tents, surfboards, iceblocks and even octopi. She struggles against swarms, as while her vines can hold a single zombie forever, they can also be eaten by other zombies, meaning that she can briefly scratch zombie hordes.
== Trivia ==
* Blockbuster was planned since Blastberry Vine's addition, even before PvZ3 existed, that's why she's so different from her PvZ3 version. 
* She was originally planned to be in Contain-mint's family, because she could hold two zombies in place or destroy nearby gravestones
