Deadbushes as a rare would be 169 grass each as a start later on becoming more rare as people place them.
You're making them sad if they can't sell dead bushes anymore! + I really like them as a way to get sticks (Can we even get sticks from them in 1.12?)
YOU GUYS DONT UNDERSTAND THE VILLAGERS ARE USING ME AND THE DEADBUSHES TO TAKE OVER THE WORLD THEY ARE HYPNOTIZING YOU RUN WHILE YOU CAN RUN
Don't really see them around to begin with, so doesn't really matter to me if they're removed/rare or not. On the other hand, sticks are sticks... easy way to make more without depleting your wood supply. You could do a variation of a Rare Deadbush instead like there's the Rare Pots.
