Saw-shroom (DsFanboy)

Saw-shroom is the first plant obtained in Crumbled Castle in Plants vs. Zombies: The Wacky House. Saw-shroom targets the two tiles in front of it, dealing 20 every second. Saw-shroom deals 2x as much damage when fighting against anything made out of stone or metal. It can only hit one zombie at a time, prioritizing the zombie closest to it.
== Origins ==
Saw-shroom's namesake comes from sawblades, tools used to cut through materials. Being a mushroom, it has the "-shroom" suffix at the end of its name.

== Overview ==
Saw-shroom deals three times as much damage against stone and metal, meaning it will deal 40 damage per second rather than 20. Below is a list of what constitutes as stone and metal:
* 
* 
* 
* 
* Oil Spil Zombie's oil barrel
* Gem Launching Zombie
* 
* Pipe Zombie
* Ice Cream Cart Zombie's ice cream cart
* Gargoyle Zombie (in stone form)
* Bulldozer Zombie
* Diamond Table Zombie's table
* s
== Strategies ==
Saw-shroom is a decent plant by itself, being capable of destroying s unprotected, and otherwise being capable of delivering average damage to most targets. Their cheap price makes them ideal to bring to nighttime areas. They can be used to provide reliable damage in the early-game, during which the player is still setting up a solid sun defense.
Saw-shroom is notably effective against s, dealing 40 damage every second. One unprotected Saw-shroom can deal up to 400 damage to a Buckethead Zombie before it dies; which is just under half of its health. Buckethead Zombies are common enemies, especially in the late-game where Saw-shroom is unlocked, so dealing effective damage against them in particular can help to prevent failures. 
Saw-shroom can also be used as a way to clear out s. It is cheaper than the , however, Grave Buster clears tombstones faster and it can also clear a variety of obstacles.
Like with most melee plants, Saw-shroom naturally fares well with defensive plants like the . His range also allows him to double up against a single target, allowing for more damage. Another easy and obvious strategy is to use s in front of Saw-shrooms. Since they are free, there is quite literally no drawback to doing this.
