This thread is inspired by prior threads that we've done - and it's finally time to do 5e Oozes and Plants!
WAIT!!!! I thought we were doing just one category at a time!!!! What is up with combining Oozes and Plants?
I don't really have an answer except that there weren't many of either, and believe there is no chance that both an Ooze and a Plant will win the upcoming Survivor 5E Monster Winner Eat Your face Off
Grand Championship for the greatest 5E monster of all time (limited to monsters in MM, VGtM, MToF (also excluding humanoids)), so think of this thread as an early elimination round for that contest. If you believe I've made a terrible mistake, please send your complaints to /dev/null.
IMPORTANT NOTE- DOWNVOTES ARE WORTH 2 IN THIS THREAD.
Each Plant or Ooze starts with 20 points and you vote for one Plant or Ooze you like which gains 1 point and against one Plant or Ooze you dislike which loses 2 points. It is intentional that a negative vote is worth more than a positive vote - first, because it takes something extra to whittle these guys down to size. Second, because.
Upvotes are in green, downvotes are in red (unless you are on your phone, and are unable to). Copy and paste the previous poster’s vote and change the numbers. You may vote once per day. This is an honor system, and we are all honorable gamers; please do not abuse it. If this means you vote once at night one day, and once the next morning - that's fine, but don't vote again until the following day.
This is purely a popularity contest and you do not have to explain an upvote or downvote, but feel free to - explanations are where the fun is! When downvotes reach 0 the Plant collapses under the weight of its own absurdity (FATALITY!). Finally, if an Ooze or Plant has one vote left, then you have to make the choice to use all of your downvotes to eliminate it; there is no vote splitting. In addition, you can't upvote and downvote the same Ooze or Plant (no "see" votes). And you have to use BOTH YOUR UPVOTE AND DOWNVOTE if you vote.
Two important points that you must read before voting-
1. This is a pure popularity contest, and is meant to be fun. You can cast your votes for whatever reason you want. Spite, irrational love/hate, huge creature envy, gameplay mechanics, strategic voting, and so on is perfectly acceptable. You can comment for the reasons for your vote, or not - up to you! But this is for enjoyment only.
2. This is a list of monsters classified as Plants or Oozes in 5e. The list includes the main official sources (MM, VGtM, MToF).
3. As always, the list is the list. If you have a complaint about the list, please direct it to /dev/null.
