Details

Sea Star costs 200 Sun and generates periodic sun drops over time while actively dealing 20×5 (small)
20x5x2 (normal) fires every 1.5s at range: 5 directions against Ground zombies, sustained by 300 toughness in its planted position.

Its economic contribution is front-loaded in early waves when sun is scarce, then transitions to a secondary attacker role as your garden fills with heavy hitters. Protect its planted position aggressively to keep the sun income uninterrupted.

Pros

  • Two-in-one value — Covers both economy and offense simultaneously, saving a planting slot.
  • Cumulative returns — Sun income increases in total value the longer Sea Star survives across waves.
  • Safe rear column fit — Naturally suited to protected positions where sun production is uninterrupted.

Cons

  • Fragility under fire — 300 is insufficient if exposed to direct zombie approach without protection.
  • Economy dependency — Its best value requires staying alive — premature destruction wipes out future sun potential.
  • Secondary attacker — 20x5 (small)
    20x5x2 (normal) is a bonus, not the primary reason to plant it; do not rely on it for lane clearing.
1 Column 7 or 8 (back two columns) is the ideal position for Sea Star — farthest from zombies and safest for sun production longevity.
2 Build a two-plant wall in the same lane at columns 3 and 5 to ensure zombies never reach Sea Star's position.
3 Early in the level, Sea Star's sun generation is most valuable — plant it in the very first wave to frontload income.
4 In later waves once sun is abundant, move Sea Star's lane priority toward more contested areas where its 20x5 (small)
5 20x5x2 (normal) attack can contribute.

What is Sea Star in Plants vs Zombies Fusion?

Sea Star is a Common fusion plant created by combining two base plants in Plants vs Zombies Fusion. Common fusions like $name are accessible across most game modes and remain competitive throughout the game.

What does Sea Star cost?

Sea Star requires 200 Sun to plant. Building a strong sun economy early in a level — through sun-producing fusions or quick early waves — ensures you can place Sea Star when needed without resource pressure.

Which zombies does Sea Star target?

Sea Star focuses its attacks on Ground zombies. Use this knowledge to pre-assign it to whichever lane or row contains the highest concentration of those zombie types in each level.

How tough is Sea Star compared to other fusions?

Sea Star has 300 toughness, which places it in the mid-range of the fusion toughness scale. Pair it with a healing plant or defensive buffer to extend its operational lifespan across multiple consecutive waves.
