## **Version History (Plants vs. Bloons)**

V5.0
* The newly reworked Card Battles, was added, along with 15 new plant cards such as the Cactus and Snow Pea ones.

## Notes

* Yellow, Pink, Zebra, Rainbow and Ceramic Bloon sends are good for rushing, especially with Regen and/or Camo applied and with hearty grouped sends.
* Ceramic Bloons have a RBE of 104, so a rush of these can bust through your opponents defenses if not well defended.
* A good rush card is the Empowered Nightshade card (4-2), with 9 Grouped Camo Regen Zebras unlocked on Round 11 for a measly $2000.
* The Heinous Air (3-1) Draftodil card is very powerful, sending 55 grouped zebras on round 12 for $2000, outdoing many other good rushes.
* It is important to hold either Juggerlanche or Chain Lightning in your hand in early game to counter possible rushes. Such rushes include, but are not limited to, 9 Grouped Camo Leads, 16 Grouped Camo Regen Leads, 9 Grouped Camo Regen Zebras, 55 Grouped Zebras, 30 Grouped Regen Zebras, 8 Grouped Camo Rainbows, etc. it should be noted that Juggerlanche does particularly well against non-MOAB class rushes.
