Mini Peashooter

**Mini Peashooter** is a attacking plant that is available for Plants vs. Bloons.

## **Tower Info**

**Mini Peashooter** shoots small, tiny peas at attacking bloons which does mediocre damage, but has less range than a regular Peashooter, but very small that you can fit him in many areas that you can't fit your plants in. Has some very useful upgrades as well.

## **Upgrades**

***Left path upgrades***:

**Effect:** Increases attack range and projectile distance by 20.

**Tier:** 1

**Tier:** 2

**Effect:** Shoots peas 0.66 seconds faster, increasing its attack speed without Faster Shooting from 1.5 seconds to 0.84 seconds (for Faster Shooting its attack speed goes from 0.84 seconds to 0.59 seconds).

**Tier:** 3

**Effect:** Further increases attack speed from 0.84 seconds to 0.51 seconds (Faster Shooting it'll attack every 0.26 seconds). Peas now do three layers of bloon damage which makes up for the very quick pea spitting attack.

**Tier:** 4

***Right path upgrades***:

**Effect:** Shoots peas 0.25 seconds quicker.

**Tier:** 1

**Tier:** 2

**Tier:** 3

**Effect:** Mini Peashooter's peas now have ten pierce instead of one, does fifteen layers of bloon damage instead of two and attacks every second with more range. Also adds a brand-new pea attack which is a giant pea which does fifty damage to a single target, but splits into eight peas that do three damage each.

**Tier:** 4

## **Strategy**

### **Summary**

Mini Peashooter plays as a peashooting plant who fires small, tiny peas at atrocious Bloons. His main role is to help you defend early game bloons in a similar way to Peashooter does. However, unlike Peashooter, he has some very good upgrades that will help you take on against those nasty Bloons. Mini Peashooter can only be used in private matches if you have Sunflowers in your plant loadout, but the placement size is notably different compared to regular Peashooter's and it's much easier to place him down in chokepoints of the map where most Plants can't fit properly in that position.

### **Tips**

* **Mini Peashooter** is a great starting plant to help you hold the Bloons off. It costs nothing in Private matches, which allows you to alternatively use him just like Puff-shroom. This plant can be used to help you out during the early game rounds due to its free cost and allows the greed of Sunflowers which makes up for it.
* **Mini Peashooter** has a lead weakness, so all upgrades and his ability cannot pop them unless you have Torchwood support. Use plants like Dandelion to pop lead bloons so you can defend.
* **Mini Peashooter's** newly reworked x-4 upgrade now takes late game to the next level. Torchwood combined will be a fierce combo to actually destroy/decimate most Bloons and can hard carry you to super late game with ease.

## **Version History**

Mini Peashooter has been a very good plant for a while, because of the ability to cost nothing in Private matches which made spamming Mini Pea overpowered. V4.0 nerfed it significantly, but the right path upgrade (x-4) got a makeover as well. Mini Pea is still a good plant overall.

V3.5
* Mini Peashooter was added to the game.

V4.0

* x-4 upgrade has been renamed to Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious (from Clone Mini Peashooter) and reworked from cloning Mini Peashooters to massively boosting its stats and adds a new attack.
* Getting Mini Peashooter in Private matches now always cost $75 (from nothing).
* **[bug]** Mini Peashooter's Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious super giant pea does not +20 bonus range from Long Range Peas (because it was coded incorrectly to not gain bonus attacking range).
* **[bug]** Mini Peashooter is still free to place down in Private matches.

V4.1
* **[bug fix]** Mini Peashooter's Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious super giant pea now correctly gains +20 bonus range from Long Range Peas.

V5.0

* Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious price decreased ($18,000 → $10,000).
* Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious pea and giant pea damage reduced by 50% (split peas from giant pea will now do 40% less damage).

## **Trivia**

* Mini Peashooter is the only plant that was added in PvB which wasn't in the PvZ franchise, besides that the Mini Peashooter was an unused plant in PvZ2.
