Mangostream

Mangostream is a seed packet premium plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2. Mangostream requires 250 seed packets to be obtained,
Mangostream releases a powerful stream of laser down the lane as well as adjacent lanes she is planted in. The said laser autolocks the first available zombie in her lane and next door, repeatedly attacking it and will target the next available enemy if the laser still has some duration left. Shortly afterwards, Mangostream needs to recharge several seconds before attacking.
Like Ultomato, Mangostream can also be planted on each other, but unlike Ultomato, Mangostream's power won't be increased but her attack range will be evolved to Full Board area, allowing her to attack any zombie on the lawn at the cost of her sun cost increasing by 500 the more Mangostreams there are on the field. Like Ultomato, Mangostream's sun cost will be decreased if she gets defeated or get shoveled.
== Origins ==
Mangostream is based on the real-life mangosteen, a tropical evergreen tree with edible fruit native to Island Southeast Asia.
Mangostream's name is a combination of "stream", referring to her laser stream attack and "mangosteen", the real-life plant she is based on.
=== History ===
Mangostream was originally created on June 5th, 2019 as Saucersteen, portmanteau on "mangosteen" and "saucer" as a Space Ages obtained plant. She was pretty much the same except she had longer attacking duration as well as being a flying plant. Additionally she only had one stage when planted.

== Upgrades ==
=== Plant Food effect ===
When given Plant Food, Mangostream will become covered in electricity, boosting her attack. Mangostream's PF attack now deals 1800 damage in addition of dealing a small amount of splash damage around targets in 3x3 area. The splash damage is also capable to ignoring armors, attacking the zombies directly.
=== Fila-mint effect ===
When boosted by Fila-mint, Mangostream's attack deals an additional 3000 damage.
== Strategies ==
Function-wise, use this plant as you would use Ultomato, except she is capable to attacking the next door but her sun cost will be increased significantly compared to Ultomato. Mangostream when upgraded to stage 2 gives her the range of Homing Thistle, though support is still required to defend her.
Plant Food powered Mangostream is very powerful as on top of her stream laser attack, it also deals 3x3 splash damage, although small is very useful against swarms of Zombie Chickens and Ice Weasels. The splash damage is also capable to attacking zombies directly, ignoring their armors in the process.
