Rotten Fish + plant

Learn how to effectively use Rotten Fish and Plant in your Monster Train runs. Get tips and strategies to maximize their potential and overcome challenges.

Hey there! So, you're looking to get the most out of Rotten Fish and the Plant in Monster Train, huh? Smart move, these two can really combo off each other if you set them up right. Let's dive in! Rotten Fish is a bit of a niche card, but don't let that fool you. Its main draw is that it gives you a 'Rotten' debuff when it enters play. This might sound bad, but in Monster Train, debuffs can be a good thing, especially if you've got cards that benefit from them. Think of it as a setup card. The Plant is your payoff for that setup. It's a unit that gets stronger based on the debuffs on your enemies. So, if you've got a Rotten Fish in play, or other cards that apply debuffs, your Plant is going to hit like a truck! How to make them work together: 1. Early Game: In the early stages, you'll want to get Rotten Fish out as soon as possible. Don't worry too much about its stats; its job is to apply that 'Rotten' debuff. If you can get a Plant down too, great, but focus on the debuff first. 2. Mid Game: This is where the combo starts to shine. You'll be looking for ways to stack debuffs. Cards that apply 'Rotten' multiple times, or other debuffs like 'Poison' or 'Weak,' will make your Plant a powerhouse. Keep an eye out for upgrades that might enhance your debuff application or your Plant's attack. 3. Late Game: By now, your Plant should be a major threat. If you've managed to keep the debuff train rolling, it'll be clearing waves for you. Just make sure you're protecting it and your other key units. Sometimes, you might need to sacrifice a Rotten Fish if it's taking too much heat, but its job is usually done once the debuffs are applied. Watch out for: * Enemy Resistances: Some enemies might have resistances to debuffs. This is where you'll need to diversify your strategy or focus on other units. * Card Draw: Make sure you have enough card draw to consistently get both Rotten Fish and your Plant into your hand when you need them. * Unit Placement: Sometimes, where you place your Plant can make all the difference. Try to position it where it can hit multiple enemies or is protected from direct attacks. It takes a bit of practice to get the hang of it, but once you nail the Rotten Fish + Plant synergy, you'll find it's a really satisfying way to play! Good luck out there on the train!
