Mute-Root

== Overview ==
Mute-Root is a plant in Plants vs. Zombies 2. It has 6 nds of health, and affects all zombies in a 5x5 area around it. All affected zombies will disperse and move randomly around the lanes, and become evenly spaced among all five. They, when affected, will be stunned for a second, as they lose the ability to speak. The muted trait stays with them, even after they leave the affected area.

=== Plant Food ===
When fed Plant Food, Mute-Root will mute all zombies and do 20 NDS to them.
== Strategy ==
Mute-Root is an odd plant, neither killing zombies, nor healing plants, nor producing sun. However, its ability can break up hordes in an overwhelmed lane, allowing your plants to deal with them more effectively. It is completely unnecessary if you use AoE plants (e.g. Melon-Pult), but if you use single-target plants or rely on defensive plants (e.g. Wall-nuts) to keep zombies away from your offensive line, this plant can be useful. Primal Peashooter synergizes very well, as it is a single-target plant, and is effective at managing a few zombies, but not a horde. Mute-Root is still effective against Gargantuars and other high-health zombies, as being muted will keep them moving around. In Modern Day it can keep zombies summoned deep in your defenses via Portals moving around, and possibly divert a charging All-Star or Super-Fan Imp to a less important lane.
Its plant food effect is also very useful. Combined with Shrinking Violet's, many zombies will be either destroyed or severely damaged, and also shrunk. However, it is not as useful in terms of dishing out damage to many zombies, as there are many plants (Spore-shroom and AKEE, to name a few) that do it better. However, it still comes in handy with dispersing hordes outside of its range.
