"Our only hope is if our opponent doesn't read."
Opponent: "Hehe battle phase go brrrrrr."
"Those effects cant stop me because I can't read!"
I mean who reads cardian cards, sometimes you just gotta hope for the best and wing it xDDDDDD
Imagine asking your flower cardian opponent what his cards do and then he goes full auctioneer when reading their effects to you
"What's that do."
" *Yes* "

You're welcome, by the way. :)
KOI-KOI, YOU PUSS!
Thank you!
You deserve more subscribers
thanks for helping show MBT the light that is flower cardian's fun
though also thanks to MBT for showing how good they are. nice to see MR 4.5/MR 5 let them continue being the "play slot machine with your deck then make stuff people both don't know and can't be bothered to read".
The main problem is learning what the deck does and how it does it, from there it mainly is just playing some games out to get accustomed to it, then learning the best way to make combos. I played cardians during MR3 a bit after they came out with the second wave of support for it (with curtain), and it was a blast to randomly school people with a lightflare+rain while recovering a bunch of your hand cycling cards with willow after willow.

I like how in Arc-V the guy who uses the Cardians is literally known as a top deck god
Then he decided to not draw anymore with his monster effect cuz reasons... just because you cheated once in a duel it doesn't mean your luck got magically lowered, ya know?
@@majordukem He didn't have luck, he was a hero because it was exciting, sometimes the topdeck won, sometimes he lost, but people love it. Then he decided to stop relying on luck.
I thought all flower cardians said “solitaire until your opponent loses” and I was almost right
to be more precise, it's "solitaire until your opponent loses or until he/she decides to read"
I've been playing Cardians online for a while and and one of my Fondest Memories is intimidating a dragon link player into surrender through the sheer number of monsters I was summoning every turn.
inside his head he must have been like “well all this special summoning’s gotta do *something,* and i’m not prepared for it, whatever it is.”
The worst thing that has happened to me online as a flower cardian player is the fact that one time i was dueling with a guy multiple times (i like to stick and duel with the same people once i know if they are friendly or not) and he finally decided to read my cards in one of the duels, ended up with me passing turn with 4 cardians and a cardian tuner that got hit by infinite impermanence.
@@majordukem a Flower Cardian's worst enemy: reading.
Just yesterday, I used super all in and brought back 2 flares and 2 showers.
My opponent whent AFK right there. Lol
Ironic
God, I love Flower Cardian. Feels good to have such big beatsticks on the field after 45 minutes of activating Willow.
KOIKOIKOIKOI
genuine question, how can you get them to be beatsticks? i cant see any card that boosts their attack more than 1k
@@technodragon990 Lightflare is thicc. 5k ATK is huge. Lightshower's 3k ATK is also pretty big. I think that qualifies as beatstick.
@@GniefFiar ah i see, yeah good point. thought you were referring to the main deck monsters ngl
@@GniefFiar also at the time, i was just getting into flower cardians, bit more knowledgable on them but still not amazing with them
I’m going to be honest with you, I watched the video several times, and I still have no idea what any of the cards do, but seeing what you did with it I’m committed to learn somehow
Okay but same
Reading gives you an advantage in any duel you play, who would have thought?
just play some of it through. learning flower cardians is easier by practice rather than by trying to comprehend all that they do only by reading. and thankfully EDOPro works, so you don't need to deal with doing the second to do the first.
honestly the thing that makes their text so long is their shared effects and conditions, kind of like ghostricks.
It's doro monsta kaado deck put all in for good measure
It's a pretty opressive deck if you play second sadly it dies to nibiru
He's done it folks. He's finally learned to read.
I wouldn’t go THAT far.
I mean, he learned Cardians from Hardleg's deck profile, so we can't know for certain.
Wrong. He never Normal Summoned Cherry Blossom even though he could have.
Flower Cardians are a deck I fondly remember for a random game I got placed in online a year or so ago
I was trying to figure out a Krawler deck and got placed against someone playing HEROs and I learned how hard it was for my deck to recover as they beat me. They asked for a rematch and I Iost again, so I asked if they wanted to play against my favorite deck, Ojamas, and I defeated the HEROs. They then asked if I wanted to play against their favorite deck, Flower Cardians. It was a fantastic back and forth before I ran out of Life Points due to me still taking the damage from leaving the Ronin Raccoon in Attack Position. The next game they switched to Darklords and it was also a someone even match with them having the obvious upper hand. I saw the writing on the wall, so for my final turn I summoned Ojama Emperor. They didn't read and walked straight into it delivering lethal damage to themselves.
This series of duels is ultimately one I hold very fondly as some of the best I've ever had with Flower Cardian vs Ojamas being the best of that bunch. I'm sure I could have beat them somehow had they brought them again for the next game.
Thank You, fellow Yugists and Friends for Everything
That's awesome, whenever i end up in a duel like that they go and play burn mystic never anything fun like that
Yeah, sometimes you find fun people like that or make a temporary rival and you just wanna through all of your decks at each other!
@@majorBearsky I think we've all had our share of "fun and interactive" gameplay like that lol
@@liviousgameplay1755 Exactly! :)
Whenever I find one of these long stories in comments, I like to read them in th he voice I think their profile pic would have. Needless to say, I enjoyed reading this comment for multiple reasons.
This deck is literally "DRAW MONSTA CARDO"
Tier 0 Flowercardian? I mean it exploits the fundamental weakest point of this game. The opponent’s ability to read.
Holy shit, you killed half the player base.
Ill just flip up a floodgate and see if that works
Any floodgate. Mistake, Summon Limit, There Can Be Only One
@@jameslucrative2054 And the band played on?
Golden Castle of Stromberg was made to troll everyone who does not read its effect after all the cost to keep the thing on the field.
For those who don’t want to read it.
Do some work.
You’ll get there.
Almost.
So close!
It destroys an opponent’s attacking monster and deals half its attack as effect damage to the opponent.
@@gossiperzoroark9629 People do actually be playing it only for the cost tho lmao
This can’t be true mbt wouldn’t do this
I’m literally shaking right now
it's amazing what 444.40 can do to a person.
@Raisin s For the fans' money. It was the money. Let's not kid ourselves, dude's gotta eat.
I was there when that notwifu guy donated it in stream. Absolute madlad, whoever that guy is.
MBT: Plesse dont make me learn flower cardigan
Hardleg: "BUH-DUH! BUILDIN' DECKS THE HARD WAAAAAAAAAAY!!"
Pretty sure forcing someone to read Cardians is a form of torture in some countries
This deck is taking 'reading the cards' to a whole new level.
Can pot sweetening have its own little segment in the youtube bar? It deserves it
And I thought 2020 couldnt get more unpredictable...
But MBT made a flower cardian tmt....
Something cool with Recardination: Recardination isnt a reborn, it adds 1 cardian from gy to hand and then special summons 1 cardian from hand. So, you can, in theory, use Recardination to add a freebie, like Willow, special summon one of the many bricks the deck has, and then activate the added card to summon itself, turning what normally would be a reborn into 2 special summons

Thank you, Joseph. I'm so happy you went through with it.
My one criticism is @13:13
>Recardination to take willow from GY
>Special summons willow from hand even though it's a freebie with Lightshower on the field
Would've been better to summon the tuner, then summon Willow, activate its effect, and draw a card after. You'd have kept more monsters on the field that way.
Okay so I have been playing cardians since before link format and God bless MR 5. With that out of the way I'd like to say that your point of the end boards not being strong enough isn't usually like that in my experience but a big part of that is the fact that you don't run super all in. It's quite literally the best card in the entire archetype and you don't run it. Most of the time in my games you can easily end on double lightflare, lightshower and boardefly. I think you are underestimating how strong a +7 is for this deck. Other than that I'm just happy to see cardians they are just so much fun to play.
"Soul Charge from deck."
How is this not meta!?
Oh...
Today's skit: A quality skit.
My Brain: *I'm Teaching Cards To Synchro Summon!*
Yknow its the 7th "willow eff?" That gets em
After lurking for over 10 videos i've finally sub'd, you're just too hilarious. I love your TMTs!
This videos and their intros are the only thing keeping me alive.
Seriously, my organs just shut off for the rest of the week until another one of these comes up, see y'all next we
Learning Flower Cardian is the Yugioh equivalent of taming a dragon; it takes forever, it’s dangerous, and you are going to get burned. But once you master them you’ll be unstoppable
Man I can't believe he read them
I went 3-0 at locals awhile back with this deck. Nobody knew how to counter it and nobody understood what they do. It was hilarious! I'm definitely gonna take this deck out of the book and run it again soon
That intro almost went way over my head lmao super funny as always real highbrow humor on this channel I see
Oh sweet it’s that one deck that loses to nibiru worse than anything else ever.
Aka Card games in a card game.
It doesn’t straight up lose to Nib. Unless your opponent knows Flower Cardian Cards, which is unlikely, then you would have other ways to get stuff on board. Like Super Koi Koi, or the new monster.
Card games on moto... card games!
You should see my ballpark combo otk deck it literally just plays chicken with nibiru to find out if they opened it lmao
Can confirm that it doesn’t cause a few of their cards summon when there is a high level monster on board and they can keep going
They can just keep synchro summoning with the token as material.
Joseph, you don’t need to change, you look fabulous in your Flower Cardigan.
Also, I wanna point say that Zebra Grass with Moon is a reasonable inclusion, cause you can use Boardfly or Moonflower to summon it.
MBT looking like a sexy grandma tho
EEEEEEEEEEEEEEENJOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOY!
I feel in love with deck on the anime. Chojiro had a good tier them and his duels were hype.
Too bad it was ARCV and no one is allow to have nice things but Yuya.
Though, I wish for a L1 that lets you treat other Cardians as tuners, or hell summon one from hand/gy.
A level 12 synchro that requires 5 monsters and a tuner as material and has a good effect would be pretty cool (they have a synchro tuner, so they can put 5 monsters and a tuner on the field)
I've been taking Cardians to competitive levels for years now, and once got top 8 at a national level tournament with it! Such a fun rogue deck. Opponents totally have no idea how to counter it lol
Here are some fun tech choices:
1) Vanity's/Majesty's Fiend
Since you can start easily without normal summoning, Vanity's and Majesty's Fiend are nice alternate win conditions. Vanity is also a nice Allure target if you choose to run it.
2) Card Advance
Additional stacking is always nice, and the extra tribute summon you get from it can synergize well with Vanity's Fiend. Also, you can stack some spell cards with it, then use Allure to draw the spells, then just banish a dead Cardian. It easily provides more control over your plays.
3) Isolde-BLS-Linkross Package
By running an Equip (I recommend Moon Mirror), a simple combo would be going to Isolde, search for BLS. then dumping the equip to summon Pine. Then, link away the Isolde for Linkross, summoning 2 extra tokens for you to synchro. If you have Peony, sync away the 2 Linkross tokens to go to Borrelload Savage, which can grab Isolde for 2 free negates.
I was featured at Mkohl40's channel for my top a few years ago, would be nice if you can check that video out too. Thanks for featuring Cardians!
Oh almost forgot, before anyone accuses me of cheating:
Of course I am aware of the Cardian-only restrictions. Simply do your plays before summoning the Willow. This also means dropping the Flower Gathering package entirely (no Zebra Grass and Paulownia). Summon your Willows last, synchro it away immediately, preferably for Boardefly. (That card is low-key busted, a lot of decks cannot handle grave control early on)
Cheers!
@@Cashew sweet choices, I never thought about Isolde into Linkross (though if Linkross goes the way of the dodo like in the OCG, I will cry). For anyone who is interested in other extra deck tech choices: the high rank Xyzs are sometimes worth it but you'll summon them once every blue moon and they are mostly win-more cards. This video caused a stupid Seven Sins buyout, so if you can't grab it there is still plenty of extra deck space to work with:
- With the proper build/if you draw enough extenders and can get 3 Cardians off Koi Koi, going into Apollousa as your 5th summon is possible if Nibiru is a concern.
- Tied into the above, Number 65: Djinn buster is another monster omni-negation (with burn as an added bonus) that you can make after a successful Super Koi Koi, using fewer resources than Apo.
- Crumble Logos is another good Xyz which can come up going second. Don't underestimate Clover with Boar and Maple with Deer as board-breaking tools if you're forced to go second.
- For the Main Deck, we might never get Fairy Tail - Snow back but she used to be back-breaking for the opponent if you milled her off a tribute Cardian. In her stead, I've found that a cheeky one-of Darkest Diabolos triggers nicely off your tributes.
@@Cashew can be good options and bricky as well. But yeah worked for me too
I love these little skits slowly documenting not only bits and pieces of Joseph's life but also his quickening descent into madness.
This intro skit is the first one that I burst out laughing at. They're always funny, but this one. This one right here. Love it
Lol I was Just Playing Hanafuda on the switch when I saw the upload.
eXCUSE ME BUT YOU BEAT ELDLICH WITH DAMN FLOWER CARDIANS?
No one ever pays attention to effects, besides in one turn you can destroy everything
EYYYYYY
Incredibly, they have a pretty good matchup against eldlich because of one of their synchros locking the GY, so the eldlich spells/traps don't "float"
Enzo Rafael dude this whole video makes me wanna pick up the deck now
It was the first deck I ever built, but the cards were printed during MR4, and I basically rellied on soul charge to do anything.
Flower Cardians have always been that cheese deck that could do incredible stupid stuff, and they just got better with rule changes. But not a whole lot of people play them because they're so xenophobic. They're only consistent if you stuff your deck Flower Cardian cards.
Given, that makes the cheapest build also one of the most powerful, but from a competitive standpoint that's a death sentence
Loved this deck for years. Managed to pull off the exodia ftk loop in locals a couple of times. Takes about 20 minutes but it's worth it
my friend introduced me to flower cardians, i never actually knew what they did i just pressed activate effect until i could synchro summon
These skits are getting more and more clever, big fan of this one
I seriously respect that you didn't point out the pun at the start and actually trusted us to be smart enough to get it unlike a lot of other CZcamsrs lol
Intros getting better and better!
Thank you for this, great entertainment. It’s was cheers me up when I get home. Keep it up and looking cute in the cardigan xD
Joseph explained this step by step and I STILL have no clue how this works. I'm serious. It all just blanked out in me after a while. I'm happy it's good but I shall never ever read those cards
The skits just keep getting better
We need more Archetypes like this
Imagine going to your local Tournament and Gladis strolls up and deadass starts playing Solitaire, then XYZ Summons the King of Hearts with like 12 materials
"play 2 koi koi"!
Haha just kidding.
As a FC player, i know absolutelly all the effects and plays. Was not a easy way, but i love this deck.
Also, playing Super All-In doesnt mean it's been an FTK. It kinda helps you a lot about consistency (also luck), and go your plays further. This deck is amazingly playable now and when the support comes, then we shall ENJOY them even more.
This was one of my first decks and I've always loved them. I personally like the 'upgrades' as they make for an easy double lightshower with their 'SS the Flower Cardian you Draw' effects. The deck is basically Drawn Cardians go brrrr
Really good video. Thankfully i have the ability to playback because the commentary is so fast but i appreciate that as i learn through repetition
I’d seriously watch a skit show just of these MBT jokes before each episode. Stuff’s legendary.
I didn't think I wanted to see MBT in drag, but after that cardigan skit... my mind is changed.
A really cool thing you can do with recardination. When you grab willow from the grave you can special a tributing cardian from the hand instead of the willow, then special the willow from your hand for free.
this is one of my favorite decks of all time. its so slept on
I'm glad I've stuck with playing this deck for fun. I always got a Rubik's cube around with me to had my opponent to when they didn't care to read or wait on me finish summoning.
Also good cards to side with this deck, warrior returning alive, allure of darkness, desynchro, pot of avarice, card advance, one for one.
You did it, you crazy bastard, you did it.
*You read CARDIAN text*
The fact that this deck has, besides all of the summoning, in archetype floodgates is terrifying
ive been playing cardians for years, everyone called me crazy for liking them and saying theyre good. Look who's on top now fools.
For some reason they have a pretty good matchup against eldlich because of the one synchro
@@majordukem also shower prevents them from being popped or targeted so win win.
Btw. I love the short skits. Keep it up!
1:49 the fact he didn’t change it to “and now the cardian by cardian” made me a little sad ngl 😢
I loved that you summoned sevens sins at the end ^^
Reading a Yugioh player's worst nightmare
This deck is so fun. Thanks for the video
Flower.....CARDIGAN!!!! Get it?.......LAUGH DAMN YOU!!!!
I did, everytime I typed flower cardian on my phone auto correct changed it to cardigan.
It looks like the cards!
Me knowing what these cards did was so helpful tbh. The deck is a lot of fun once u read the cards
I love playing cardians in duel links
Wow a deck in 2020 without a hand trap or needlefiber ...I will officially subscribe thank you.
Yay Flowers. You were right. I wanted to play them but I couldn't understand them
The deck can make Gustav and Liebe... I'm already drooling!
The only thing I would suggest is that its worth running some high impact spell/trap cards to dig for with zebra grass, recardination, and super all-in's discard effect. A single copy of judgement, red-reboot, or gravity collapse that you can dig for I think raises the ceiling of the deck. especially since the deck is fairly vulnerable to dark ruler no more.
I personally side Reboot and might do Judgements just in case.
aight now use lyrilusc, those smol level 1 birds that can make otk mega xyz need some love, particularly when you combine the effect of stoic challenge (the equip spell) with lyrilusc independent nightingale, to put it short, non destroyable by battle or card effect, using the right mats makes it un-targetable, and it attacks more times and has more attack based on the ammount of materials it has, also it can just attack directly as a continuous form of self effect, roughly translating to ~3200 ish attack, attacking 4 times and still surviving till next turn
That was an amazing opening joke. My favorite by far.
Been testing this out myself this deck is awesome
Joseph, you looked killer in that Flower Cardigan.
That was a fantastic intro 🤣🤣
Hahaha! Have not the video yet but know I am going to enjoy it.
Oh baby, the video of my dreams
Wait. The madlad actually did it. *He played Flower Cardian*
Quick degen thing. If you run 3 sychronized realm and 3 avarice, you can make a semi consistent ftk
Don't you dare! Carsians are already boring enough and you want to add ftk to the mix?
What do you want, stabbing at locals?
I play the deck for the longest time to the dissmay of my friends since my turns took so long
I still loved it
Definitely better than my Calculator Cardigan T500 from a few years ago.
Super all in isn't exclusive to ftks, you can keep tributing your big synchros to then summon them and possibly end on a board of multiple lightflares and lightshowers
You could also play herald of the arc light, void ogre dragon and quantum dragon in the extra deck since you can summon them really easily, if you are going up against a multiple negates deck and you had to go second you can side in dark ruler no more or droplet cause you can add them off of recardinations gy effect.
I love using Herald incase I know this deck is most likely maining decking Nibru. Otherwise a negate and macro is nice to have, I might have to try those other two.
I would recommend De-Synchro even in a non ftk version. You can make a synchro out of multiple willows, de-synchro to get them back, then use their effects again to draw more cards. You can usually then get 4 bosses and still have 5 cards in hand when you’re done.
Super all in! Is way better. It's an in archtype de syncro
@@1slayer959 also it is literaly a Soul Charge summoning always 4 any mosters from GY instead of the used materials for synchro. Yeah. Even better
@@marcioaugusto392 the archtype also has a built in loop hole by having light shower on the field to completely ignore the risk of the card.
NO JOSEPH! DON'T CHANGE!
Awesome intro! 😂
Even more relevant now, as every single card that was more than a dollar was reprinted in the dragons of legend set, so now the entire deck is $17
We did it boys and gals, we made Joseph read!
Mary mother of god he finally did it
It's amazing that such an easy to play deck is so cheap!
MBT reading flower cardians...imma head out
HE DID IT YEET!
MBT: they won't cost you money
Me: well, they say time is money and I don't have money. Less money means more time ..
Flower Cardians: hey, we've got the time
Me: *sobbing gently until death*
The ideal Deck for the quarantined.
And you know what that means! A best of three vs Eldich!
Super All In is a great card with it you can build a board of 4 bosses,also the downside is avoidable with Lightshower
The deck can be way more explosive if you play less of what you have and some more extenders, like only play 2 stacking, 2 gathering, 2 paulownia and 1 willow with calligrapher, as only that many can get you to what you need to make which lets you also play monster reborn and allure of darkness
Here I stand, laughing at everyone who still can't comprehend Flower Cardians
I memorized every effect and have been able to play the game without speaking with them.
