Shroom for Two - A Plants vs Zombies: Heroes Podcast

Hello, Heroes!

Welcome to another battle episode of Shroom for Two! This episode features a face-off for two former favorites! Taylor and Mike took two deck archetypes from our crowddecking segments, Cyclecap and Valkstorm, and battled against each other! We each built a Cyclecap deck and a Valkstorm deck, and played two best-of-three matches. The matches are on our YouTube page, in the show notes below. The results may surprise you...

Hello, Heroes! 

Welcome to a newly nomenclatural episode of Shroom for Two! This week, we reach back to follow up on the Zoo-Mech deck with Gargologist. Taylor thought the deck was compatible with Headhunter as a payoff card, with dancing dudes at the low end and gargantuars at the high end. Mike, as the resident Headhunter-owner, gave it a spin to test the theory.

Afterwards, we jump into our next battle series! We’re going back thr...

Hello, Heroes! 

Welcome to another growth-tacular episode of Shroom for Two! This week, Taylor and Mike take a look at long-neglected Core Set build-around-me Potted Powerhouse! We investigate what cards outside the Mega-Grow class work well with PP, and what the basis for a good Potted Powerhouse deck looks like.

Our conclusions may surprise you! Or, they may not, since we realize pretty quickly that Potted P...

Hello, Heroes! Welcome to another gravedigging episode of Shroom for Two! We’re not digging our own graves this week - instead, we’re jamming Pogo Bouncers and Mixed-Up Gravediggers to show why Neptuna is the best Gravestone deck.

In our latest installment of Crowddecking, we break down the Gravetuna archetype into its core, its support cards, and its flex slots. We discuss how to play it, how to beat it, and how to build a deck tha...

Hello, Heroes! 

Welcome to another episode of Shroom for Two, where Taylor spreads the word of the new Philadelphia gospel: Did you know that all the food you’ve ever eaten is alive inside you, and that the only way to deal with that is to turn yourself into a statue? Neither did Mike! You’ll get some education on this latest nutritional trend. 

You’ll also receive some education on the subject of Frankentaur and Shieldcrusher Viking...

Hello, Heroes! 

Welcome to another decktacular episode of Shroom for Two! After coming down from the world’s least exciting Super Bowl, Mike and Taylor dive deep into the new, post-rebalance decks you’ve been posting in the ShroomForTwo Discord channel. We present our most-played decks since the last show - Mike’s Beta Carrotina Bog of Enlightenment deck and Taylor’s Transfiguration Molekale deck.

Then, we review several decks posted...

Hello, Heroes!

The great rebalancing is upon us! The new balance patch has landed in PVZ Heroes, so it’s time to dive right in to the new meta. We’re diving in so deep, we recorded an entire second podcast this week! We recorded a Colossal Fossils retrospective on Wednesday, the night before the patch dropped.

When the patch arrived on Thursday, we decided to record again! Enjoy a bonus segment from future Mike, and future Taylor, on...

Hello, Heroes! 

Welcome to another frytacular episode of Shroom for Two. This week, we’re examining a pair of year’s end videos from Fry ‘Em Up, the biggest PVZ Heroes YouTuber. 

He has two videos up right now that showcase his favorite plant and zombie decks for 2018. Mike and Taylor watched those videos, built some of the decks, and took them for a spin. Check them out yourselves, and tune in for our commentary! 

As a reminder, we’r...

Happy new year!

Hello, Heroes! Welcome to another draftacular episode of Shroom for Two! 

This week, we’re ramping up for our special holiday battle episode. We liked the idea of drafting decks in our previous battle episodes, so we’re sticking with that. 

We’ve got some additional restrictions on the deckbuilding this time that should ensure some creative and different decks. You’ll have to listen to find out what they are and what we picked! 

We ho...

Hello, Heroes! 

Welcome to another ultimate episode of Shroom for Two. This week, we sink our teeth into an interesting twist on aggro decks, with a full treatment of Smarty aggro decks. 

We go over Justini’s big write-up of the archetype a few weeks ago, and we look at the aggro Rose deck that Mike took to the tournament and the Fight Club.  Various other builds are discussed; including Beta Carrotina and Green Shadow.

Our next crowd...

Hello, Heroes!

Welcome to another jamtastic episode of Shroom for Two! This week, we finally get our hands around a Berry Spudow segment, just in time for it to get nerfed. Come listen to us discuss the listeners’ decklists, and the substrata within them! You’ll hear us talk about how to beat the deck, what makes the cut, and what doesn’t.

Also, you’ll hear us do a very silly Card of the Week segment, wherein Mike slams on the “Compl...

Hello, Heroes! 

Come turn and face the strange on another episode of Shroom for Two! This week, we’re overjoyed to report on another data-mined balance patch that hit the reddit last week. Tons of juicy meta-shaping details to be had, so don’t miss it! 

We blow off Card of the Week this week (sorry, Overstuffed Zombie), to spend some extra time on the balance patch. Pretty much all the boogeymen are in the crosshairs this time: Briar...

Hello, Heroes! 

Welcome to a very competitive episode of Shroom for Two! This week, we’re starting with some follow-up from our Pecanolith OTK segment. We only covered the first half of listener Sushi’s post, so we round out the coverage of the non-Guardian choices for those decks.

Next, Mike pinch hits for Taylor during Card of the Week. It was Taylor’s turn to do the deck, but he disenchanted all of his Mayflowers, so he couldn’t b...

Hello, Heroes!

Welcome another episode of Shroom for Two, that is nowhere near as scatological as the title suggests!

This week, we begin the show by plugging the third Reddit PVZ Heroes tournament! The deets are in Discord, as is the sign up link, so head on over to #tournament-rules to find the info!

We also discuss the launch of our new Shroom for Two tip jar! We haven’t had a means for listeners to give us money yet, and we’ve rec...

Hello, Heroes! 

Welcome to a much belated episode of Shroom for Two! Apologies for our technical difficulties over the last week. Mike’s electricity is working again, so we’re back on our regular schedule! 

We’re making up for lost time, though. We’ve got a pair of spooky Cards of the Week to discuss. Mike’s got a Jack o Lantern deck, and Taylor’s got a Frankentaur deck! We discuss how to maximize these fairly mediocre event cards, a...

Hello, Heroes!

Welcome to an unusually explicit episode of Shroom for Two! Fair warning, there’s a fair bit of profanity in this episode. Maybe Valkyrie Brainstorm brings that out in Mike and Taylor, because that’s what they talk about in the main segment. Our latest deck to be featured on Crowddecking is the current Zombie deck that everyone loves to hate, Valkstorm. We’ve got a big pile of degenerate legendaries to talk about, and...
