Plant Plant ( " Shokubutsu " ) monsters were very overlooked and weak until support for the Type was released in the " Crossroads of Chaos " , " Crimson Crisis " and " Raging Battle " booster sets . A general strategy for Plant - Type Decks is to use cards like " Gigaplant " , " Lonefire Blossom " and " Lord Poison " to fill the field with powerful monsters . They can go hand - in - hand with Insect - Types as well with cards like " Prickle Fairy " . One of the strongest Plant - Type monsters is " Tytannial , Princess of Camellias " at 2800 ATK . It has the power to negate any card effects that target simply by sacrificing a Plant - Type monster ( which in worst case scenario can even be herself ) . It can be easily Summoned by Tributing " Lonefire Blossom " . In power and strategy , " Tytannial , Princess of Camellias " is followed by " Gigaplant " , which has 2400 ATK and the power to Special Summon Plants from the Graveyard and hand . Other notable Plant - Type monsters include " Mystic Tomato " , " Spore " , " Dandylion " , " Botanical Lion " , " Glow - Up Bulb " , " Nettles " , " Cactus Fighter " , " Meliae of the Trees " and " " . Plants also have Plant version of staple cards like " Solemn Judgment " and " Mirror Force " , in the forms of " Pollinosis " and " Wall of Thorns " , respectively . Plants have non - Plant support versions of " Marauding Captain " in form of " Twilight Rose Knight " , a version of " Witch of the Black Forest " in form of " Violet Witch " . Other Plant cards are very similar to certain non - Plant cards , for example : " Dark Verger " and " Quillbolt Hedgehog " . Other cards present similarities in the card images like " Wonder Clover " and " Break ! Draw ! " . The usual Attribute s associated with Plants are EARTH or WATER . Plant cards usually revolve around swarming and regenerating back onto the field . Unlike Zombie s , Plants are often used to fuel effects such as negations rather than for strictly attacking purposes . They have many cards that allow them to be Special Summoned from the Deck and hand but mostly from the Graveyard . Cards like " Lonefire Blossom " , " Plant Food Chain " , " Lord Poison " , " Gigaplant " , " The World Tree " and " Miracle Fertilizer " all add major support to bringing back a swarm of Plant monsters to overwhelm the opponent . There are many good Plant - Type Tuner monster s , like " Copy Plant " and " Spore " . Plant - Type monsters are used by Akiza Izinski in " Yu - Gi - Oh ! 5D ' s " . Her signature card , " Black Rose Dragon " , is a staple in Plant - reliant Decks . Plant - Type monsters also appear in " Yu - Gi - Oh ! ZEXAL , " used by Tombo Tillbitty and Lotus Hanazoe . Tombo plays with a " Tomato " deck , while Lotus plays a Plant deck with a focus on Special Summoning Plants to Xyz Summon " Battlecruiser Dianthus , " which is later Ranked Up to Summon " CXyz Battleship Cherry Blossom " . In " Yu - Gi - Oh ! ARC - V " , Yuri uses a " Predaplant " Deck focused on manipulating the stats of the opponent ' s monsters to weaken them , disrupting their strategies , or using them as Fusion Material s for their own bosses . In " Yu - Gi - Oh ! VRAINS , " Spectre uses a " Sunvine " / " Sunavalon " Deck focused on manipulating the tide of the Duel . " Legacy of the Valiant " introduced the " Sylvan " archetype , the first one composed solely of Plant - Type monsters . They are focus on the excavate mechanic , have a high variety of Levels and Attributes , being able to build a very flexible Deck , and their effects rely on taking advantage of when they are excavated and sent to the Graveyard ; those effects range from searching a monster and recycling cards to destroying a monster and reorganizing the Deck in order to use their effects at their best . The " Aroma " archetype is largely composed of Plant - Type monsters , and focuses on gaining advantage through having higher LP than the opponent . Playing Style . Plant Beatdown . This deck revolves around " Lonefire Blossom " and " Gigaplant " to help swarm the field . Make sure you use the effect of " Gigaplant " effectively in order to pull decent Synchro Monsters out while using " Queen of Thorns " to make your opponent pay life points to summon non - plant monsters . You could use " Tytannial , Princess of Camellias " and combo it with " Gigaplant " so you could tribute Plant monsters Special Summoned by " Gigaplant " ' s effect to negate any cards that target your plant monsters . You can also keep the opponent at bay with powerful cards like " Wall of Thorns " . This deck also uses " Pollinosis " or " Tytannial , Princess of Camellias " to negate Spells and Traps that destroy multiple monsters such as " Lightning Vortex " or " Mirror Force " or " Torrential Tribute " , however , this can be entirely foiled with cards like " Zombie World " and " DNA Surgery " , so be sure to pack in " Mystical Space Typhoon " . This deck ' s ability to swarm the field quickly for fuel or for an all out attack can be foiled by cards like these . GigaVise . This is a deck utilizing " Supervise " and " Hidden Armory " which allows players to Synchro Summon quickly with the main monsters " Gigaplant " and " Spore " . This can Summon a variety of different Synchros to control the field , but most used is " Power Tool Dragon " , which allows the player to grab a quick " Supervise " . Chaos Plants . The successor to the very popular Plant Synchro Deck , Chaos Plants takes advantage of the LIGHT and DARK attributes of splashable monsters , such as Tour Guide From the Underworld and " Effect Veiler " , to Summon " Black Luster Soldier - Envoy of the Beginning " , in combination with the Synchro abilities of Plants . It rarely uses enough Lights and Darks for it to be worth using " Chaos Sorcerer " . Something to note is that it despite being called a " Plant " Deck , it often uses more Fiend monsters than Plants . Doppel Plants . A derivative of Chaos Plants that uses " Doppel Warrior " and " Junk Synchron " .
