Fun fact in the original version of the game, the dancing zombie was actually michael jackon in his Thriller outfit, but after his death, they thought it was a bit distasteful and changed the sprite

The reason why there are "suddenly" two rows of water in the backyard is because World One is the front yard, which didn't have a pool. Your backyard always did.

“Why am I protecting these people?” You dare question Crazy Dave?

Unwritten pro rule: Finish every level symmetrically.

"..And we have the Dolphin Zombie that jumps over your first Zombie" Man's brain started twisting

5:47 That Zomboni was already about to die though...

Since you seemed confused, here a little clarification: Worlds 1 and 2 play in the front lawn, worlds 3 and 4 in the backyard and the remainder of the game on the roof. This is why world 3 and 4 have a pool to begin with - it was there before this all went down. Not to mention, at the beginning of each level, in worlds 1 and 2 you can see that there's nothing like a fence up front with only a wonky picket fence at the top, while in worlds 3 and 4 you have zombies requiring ladders to climb your backyard fence :) This however raises the question on why a) at night there appear graves out of thin air and b) how the zambonie zombie gets the vehicle into your backyard in the first place.

Pro Tip : The strat to speedrun Zomboss is to freeze, thaw, and refreeze the robot as much as possible. When he is still, let the plants to their job, when he moves blast him with heat and refreeze, repeat the thawing process if you can for extra damage (remember to not overuse this strat since the Jalapenos and Ice Shrooms are needed for his balls, use them wisely and keep your brains inside your head)

"Remember kids, zombie won't eat your brain if you don't have one.." -CrAzY DaVe

"So in world three the gimmick is that there are now two lanes of water in our backyard for some reason" A pool. It's called a pool.

Not pro tip: If you don’t have any wall nuts or defense plants and you need to buy time to do something, use a flower pot (if you have them on your inventory) or sunflower. They load quickly and could buy you a couple seconds to do something if you need it. Ps you could use any plant tbh lol, just try to use the cheapest in your inventory Also, the final boss has a pattern with the fire and ice balls. I’m pretty sure they alternate every time, but just in case make sure you have at least one fire and ice plant in your conveyor before the zombies fires the thing

I love how he doesn't realise that the Yard and the Pool are different places.

The nostalgia from PVZ hits harder than a pea to the face

Fun fact, I completed this game 10 years ago when I was 8 years old. I still remember sat on my bed with my I pod touch on the final level. My hands were aching and my I pod was boiling hot.

"I feel like its just a bad idea to add this when you constantly have to fight off against zombies to protect our house." Have you ever considered that these houses were built before the apocalypse?

eazyspeezy: *explaining how pvz works* everyone watching: do not cite the deep magic to me, witch. i was there when it was written.

seeing him react to how highly optimized the speedrun is was hilarious

the fact that he doesn't realize that world 1-2 & 3-4 are separate places (front yard and back yard) makes me unnecessarily mad

2:20 The strat I use while bowling is > wait for wall nuts to load up > hit the zombies once to make a larger group appear > use the walnuts you already have to hit the zombies closest to you This saves wallnuts by hitting zombies that would have appeared anyways with wallnuts that bounce off the first few zombies

"My strategy was just to place random things and hope I didn't die" That's literally how I play the game in general

If I ever did a speedrun of this game, all my time would go towards carefully selecting my plants in the right order 😅

It’s nice to see a game that is old. Lots of nostalgia. Still play it.

I haven’t played plants vs zombies in years holy shit it’s been a hot minute. The nostalgia is hitting me.

4:50 "it is a bad idea to build two lanes of water" this is the backyard that has a pool they never knew there would be zombies

Plant V Zombies 2 title: The speedrun to get my credit card canceled.

I purposefully put off watching this video for 3 months as I wanted to play it and though I could not play consistently or not at all on some days I have completed it yet again thank you for such an amazing nostalgia trip down memory lane means a lot man thanks:)

I think you can shave off some time in the early levels (tutorial stages) by planting the peashooters closer to the zombies. The closer the peashooter are to zombies, the faster their projectiles hit. The faster the projectiles hit the zombies, the faster they die.

"Dolphin zombies that jump over your first zombie" -EazySpeezy 2021 at 5:40

Shout out to those who remember the Michael Jackson zombie

I’ve played through all of these countless times, including the 2nd one as well, PvZ will always have a special place in my heart❤️

"most of your plants cant see over the lip of the roof so you have to place them in the 5th lane" Catapult plants: am I a joke to you?

Plants VS Zombies would be a lot harder if the zombies considered jumping the fence or running.. or even coming in from the back. Now that I think of it, the zombies could win against the plants pretty easily in some scenarios.

when he doesn't place his plants Symmetrically

4:31 *Zombie literally starts doing disco with an afro, bell bottoms, shades and a gold necklace...* _"This fake Elvis guy...."_ *Facepalm*

At the leaderboard at 9:41, “walrus” (114th) is from antarctica

I actually kinda like this video format. More of just listening to him explain the run rather than watching him play all the way through it

this guy really played plants vs zombies for 5 hours straight :| salute

I totally didn't expect there to be a speedrunning scene for this game, as it always felt like a typical tower defense game. That 50% rule is so clever in how it makes the zombie hoards just the right amount: it doesn't kick you when you're down and doesn't make the game boring when you figured it out.

"We will get our first pot plant at the end of the level" Now take that out of context

Why didn't you use Torchwood for the Pool Level? It gives Pea plants aoe and increased damage, its literally the perfect combo for wave clear

Eazy: Puff-shroom is pretty weak The entire PvZ community: What did you just say?

3:26 "Whatever I will live" Gargantuar: "Are you sure about that?"

JUST LOVE THIS SO MUCH , NOSTALGIC AND TIMELESS

"why am I protecting these poeple" you are protecting your self XD

EasySpeezy: Yes kill the zombies Crazy Dave: wuaheHavGajdbGwiGanaHshdnIwhhahB

_Shoutout to those who remember the Giant tree you feed plant seeds to, I used to feed it everyday on my Windows 7 home premium laptop._

Zomboss: *shoots fireball* Ez: *use Jalapeno*

PVZ is the definition of nostalgic!

There’s something so calming about your videos idk lmao I fr fall asleep to them at night

These speedruns are more real than Dream's

Oh so you are a speedrunner? Speedrun Gta San Andreas

“for anyone who somehow doesn’t know” Who the hell doesn’t know what PvZ is? Everyone of all ages likes it

I keep screenshots of my favourite symmetrical pattern I make in PvZ levels! The most favourite of mine is the Pool end level where i use this method! Twin sunflowers in all rows and in 2 last columns, 2 garlic in the grass rows adjacent to the pool. A row of 3 Gloom shroom on the back of the each garlic. 3 spikeweeds on the top and bottom rows at starting column with a snow pea on each of the same row at the back column. 6 cattails on pool with tall nut for protection. You can put pumpkin on the first gloom shrooms for extra protection. And you just need to refill garlics once they get fully eaten. There you go the snow peas on the both border lanes will slow down zombies and make them walk longer on the spike weeds along with the OP gloom shroom destroying everything on grass as well the pool lanes.

Walnut bowling was always my favourite level, sometimes I would start a new run just to play it

2:14 Hey guys it's me :D Great job explaining the run btw, it's so much fun seeing one of my speedgames get more recognition :D

3:16 "puffshrooms are weak" Shyguymask: hold your peashooters there mate

Beat the game in

I subbed, and at the start I was confused and thought that surviving enough time, more zombies came, and you just had to cherry bomb the final zombies and tap the prompts to advance to next level as quick as possible, but it makes sense now, that more zombies come when the zombies hp gets low.

lel

I can't believe no one ever realized the pool level is the backyard while the grass level is the front yard.

I Just Found Your Channel Today And Im Already LOVING Your Channel :) Keep up the good work!

for the roof i’d definitely use the corn tht shoots both corn n butter

Anyone remember when the old Elvis knock off zombie was actually a Michael Jackson zombie?

I love the fact he played for 5 hours straight, just to end up with 112th place.

I reinstalled the game after manyyyyy years and I didn't have any problem at all playing the levels. It was like slicing butter.I don't why it felt much harder and challenging when I used to play it as a kid. I still love the game as much as I did back then 💕

112th place is actually pretty good for a first/early attempt where you are still figuring things out. Well, exactly how good it is depends on how large the community is, but in this case it does seem like it was a decent enough performance.

Who remembers when the dancing zombie was dressed like Michael Jackson?

I remember being crushed when Crazy Dave got kidnapped

4:55 I mean the pool was probably already there he didn't add it after the zombie apocalypse lol.

this game is so nostalgic love the boss music so much

Made me irrationally mad when he called that clearly 80s disco artist “fake Elvis”

The roof top:wait somethings wrong...where's the cabbages,melon and kernel corn?!

Congrats on 1 mil!

For what it's worth, I've never even seen a Plants vs. Zombies video, let alone played it myself, so I appreciated the explanations. XD

Fun fact, that disco zombie used to be micheal jackson until they had to replace it.

i feel bad for him when the hypnoshroom didnt hypnotize micheal jackson

For the roof levels I do the garlic strat and put catapults in place of sunflowers on not garlic rows. In fact, my garlic rows are usually dedicated to sunflowers.

I used to play this with my dad all the time on Xbox, good memories :’)

05:40 "dolphin zombies that jump over your first zombie"

Rip to the Michael Jackson Zombie. Only OGs remember 😭

thank u so much this is a masterpiece

its my first time seeing the game past world 3 lol but this game is honestly my childhood and it unlocked so many memories that i forgot even existed 😭

imagine what his sanity would be like if he speedrunned plants vs zombies 2

Why are you not using the catapults on the roof???

This brought back so many memories

I’ve been watching these speed runs for hours today

The Pool level is the backyard...

NOW COMPLETE MY CHILDHOOD AND DO THE PHINEAS AND FERB EDITION OF WHERES MY WATER

3:16, you talking about one of the most op plants in PvZ history mates

The strat I use is Sunflowers on first and if possible second lane and potato mines for the first 3 or 4 zombies while putting the sunflowers and pee shooters

His editing is getting better and better, it’s amazing how much he has grown through a few months

Damn he sped ran through everyone’s childhood

This brings back the memories

Good job with the speed run i have this game and it's hard so you are a pro to me 😁

9:00 "I lost this one time and my mental was kinda straining" Yeah

If you think about it these zombies are people, literally resurrected corpses of people. You live in a world overrun by zombies and you struggle to survive each day defending your house with sentient plants.

My tactic for the roof (but not to speedrun) is this corn plant and the melon slingshot? The only mushroom i use is this frozen mushroom.

I love planting peashooter behind and sunflower front pf shooter and wallnut front of sunflower
