## **Strategy**

### **Summary**

Sunflower plays as a economy plant whose job is to produce sun to help you get your defences up quickly. However, spamming Sunflowers can guarantee bigger and better sun production. Sunflower is worth 2 Eco alternatively, which can be used as a farm to help you produce additional money. Sunflower is a good plant, but there are some tips and tricks to help you use Sunflowers properly.

### **Tips**

* **Sunflower** is a decent sun producer because she gives you sun which is good. She is mostly outclassed by bloon Eco, so she is a decently good plant to have in your team, the only problem is that she takes one of your plant slots.
* **Sunflower's** only weakness is anti-stalling, which means that she will produce sun inefficiently during early/mid game rounds. To counteract with the anti-staller, you have to get a good Eco to make it worthwhile. Sunflower's 4th Tiers are good, but her newly reworked Empowered Sunlight makes it so you can make a lot of sun without needing to spam the ability continuously.

## **Version History**

Sunflower was inefficient when she was released in PvB. In a few updates of PvB, she is now a good sun producer since Banana Farms were ripped off the game, she has received a multitudinous amount of buffs in her toolkit to make her more efficient and viable as a sun producer.
