Shinobean

Shinobean is an attacking Plant in the game Plants vs. Zombies: Suburbia Defenders. He is unlocked after completing Day 17 of Abandoned Greenhouse.
Shinobean attacks by throwing piercing shurikens anywhere in a 40° angle in front of it. These shurikens pierce through 2 Zombies and are thrown twice per second, but only do .75 damage to Zombies they hit.
When its projectiles are boosted by a Torchwood, they pierce through 3 Zombies and do 1 splash damage to all Zombies on the tile.
== Origin: ==
Shinobean is based on a Shinobi, another word for the Japanese assassins known as ninjas, and a bean.
== Overview: ==
Shinobean is a very good mid-game Plant, as its high attack speed and pierce allow it to quickly weaken groups of Zombies. However, Shinobean is very bad against strong single targets such as Gargantuars, so be prepared with other Plants to take care of them.
== Plant Food ==
Shinobean shoots a barrage of 50 shurikens down the lawn.

==Strategies:==
Shinobean is a very good mid-game Plant, as its high attack speed and pierce allow it to quickly weaken groups of Zombies. It also works extremely well with Torchwood, getting extra pierce and some splash damage and allowing it to weaken Zombies much quicker. Due to its low damage and unpredictable attacks, it is a good idea to use it lower the health of Zombies, allowing more powerful attackers such as Melon-pult or Hedgehammer to take them out. Because of this, Shinobean is very bad against strong single targets such as Gargantuars, so be prepared with other Plants to take care of them.
