Grass DPS
Snapshade
Snapshade changes the Budboo line from one occasional venom seed to a three-seed spread. That T2 breakpoint matters when the projectiles split across a packed lane and start several Poison timers instead of piling onto one target.
Quick Verdict
Three venom seeds create Snapshade's T2 spike
Snapshade changes the Budboo line from one occasional venom seed to a three-seed spread. That T2 breakpoint matters when the projectiles split across a packed lane and start several Poison timers instead of piling onto one target.
Snapshade is stage 2 of the Budboo → Snapshade → Thornwisp → Chomperwraith line and turns the starter's occasional poison into wider pressure.
F2P value: Snapshade is worth a measured T2 test because three poison seeds can cover a busy lane, but it should not take premium materials before that spread is visible.

Best Teammates

Stalkerix - Grass Tank
Stalkerix buys the time Snapshade needs to spread poison through a crowded Grass lane.
Upgrade Priority
Priority: Medium at T2 — good spread pressure with a clear placement condition.
Use the lane edge and center positions against the same packed wave, then keep the position that sends the three venom seeds into separate targets most often.
Pause when all three seeds keep landing on one target or poison does not improve the clear.
