Strategies
With
This trick is very handy, especially against
Mega-Grow and
Guardian heroes as both classes focus on boosting their plants' health. Compared to Barrel of Barrels, Super Stench can only be played once and is restricted to 2 heroes, but is cheaper and can affect more than one zombie.
A good strategy is to fill the lanes with weak zombies and then play this card so that any plants on those lanes are destroyed after combat.
If you are playing as Impfinity, one of the notorious strategies that will clear the field is to play this on zombies whose ability hurts multiple plants. The most well-known examples include Barrel of Deadbeards]/Gas Giant. This will destroy every zombie and plant they manage to hurt, completely obliterating the opponent's board and can synergize well with Valkyrie or "When Destroyed" abilities. While it is possible to increase their effectiveness with the use of Binary Stars, Impfinity is better off with other alternatives.
If you are desperate for cards, you could play it to get one, although it is a waste unless you have some zombies on the field.
Against
Once your opponent plays this card, any plant in front of a zombie will definitely be destroyed unless they are
Armored and are confronted by a zombie with 1 strength or less. The best scenario would be a one-on-one exchange on all lanes with zombies, but if that doesn't happen, either destroy them with bonus attacks, stall them by Freezing, or remove their
Deadly trait by Bouncing. However, the last solution is not recommended against zombies with powerful "When played" abilities.
If you want to prepare for this trick, either play Team-Up plants in front of your main plants, or play Force Field to completely nullify the zombies' attacks. But beware, as
Strikethrough zombies can bypass Team-Up walls, while Force Field can be overridden.
