Strategies

Here are some requirements and rules before you add your own strategy to pages.

General

• Do not abuse boldfacing, italicizing, or caps locking formatting.
• Do not cuss or use inappropriate words.
• Do not add strategies that require hacking.
• Avoid confusion. Be clear and use proper grammar.
• Make it realistic. No crazy reasons to bring a certain plant.
• Do not remove a strategy just because it does not work. It may not be for you.
  • It is, however, fine if the strategy is impossible to use in future updates if there are changes in the gameplay (e.g Spring Bean + Blover strategies not being usable in Plants vs. Zombies 2 since the 6.6.1 update).
• Do not edit other people's strategies unless you are fixing grammar, formatting, or other technical aspects.
• Always put the newest strategy at the bottom of the "Strategies" section, not at the top of the section or at the bottom of the page.
• Do not create new pages just for your strategy.
• Some game modes have separate pages dedicated exclusively for strategies to prevent larger page load time. If you are placing a strategy on any of these game modes, please use the game mode's strategy sub-page.

Titles

• Strategy names do not have to be unique to the page, but it makes it more interesting. Numbered strategy names should be placed in numeric order.

Plants vs. Zombies specifics

• Survival: Endless strategies must be able to last a minimum of 40 waves.

Plants vs. Zombies 2 specifics

• Strategies should not rely on spending money for Plant Food or Power Ups.
• Please do not use image templates to display required plants. Use text instead.
• Premium plants and/or boosts should be noted at the top of the strategy, or put in a separate section. There are special templates made for these:
  • Template:PremiumIncluded and Template:PremiumMaybe.
  • Template:GemiumIncluded and Template:GemiumMaybe.

• Here is an example of how a strategy should be formatted:

==Strategies==
:''Created by {{U|<Your username>}}''
===Strategy 1===
*'''Required plants:'''
**<Plant 1>
**<Plant 2>
*<Details of the game process. It should be explained in one or more bullet points.>

Plants vs. Zombies Heroes specifics

• Each Card must have 1 to 4 quantity, as the game does not allow more;
• The sum of all cards must not exceed 40, as it is not possible to do that in-game;
• You are not obligated to use the PvZH Deck Builder template, as you can also post an image or write just text, but you need to mention the following:
  • The user who posted the deck;
  • A description for the deck;
  • A name for the deck. Try to be unique;
  • The name of the hero who uses the deck.

Have fun and enjoy adding your own strategies to the Plants vs. Zombies Wiki mainspace!
