Details
Frost Cattail costs 300 Sun, carries 300 toughness, and attacks every 1.5s with a range of Entire map against targeting Hybrid zombies for 40×2 while applying a chill or freeze effect that reduces zombie movement speed significantly.
The slow application window created by its freeze effect is where true value is generated — combine it with hard-hitting plants to shred through immobilized zombies before the effect expires.
Pros
- Zone control — Slows entire groups, keeping multiple zombies at bay simultaneously.
- DPS amplifier — Frozen targets take additional damage from compatible plants.

Cons
- Low raw damage — 40x2 alone cannot kill fast enough without supporting DPS plants.
- Resistant enemies — Several zombie types ignore or resist freeze effects.
- Team reliance — Underperforms significantly when used without complementary damage dealers.
