Mario Party isn’t Mario Party until someone learns how to -manipulate- convince someone to take someone else’s star from boo. That truly is the friendship ruiner.

Wow, this brings me back. Several friends in my main mario party group were really good at something in the game besides me. I was one of the worst mini game players in the group. Sure, i had a few favorites that i still have never lost at, but for the most part, i was always at a huge disadvantage to win... Which is exactly why i ended up winning the most. I plotted and plotted, i was never really viewed as the main threat for guy most likely to win, and i was always calculating how to increase my chances at getting some bonus stars, and then i acted shocked when i got the bonus stars at the end of the game lol. I was a tactician with every move i made, and i would whisper sweet nothings into everyones ears like emperor palpatine so that i can have my anakins do my bidding and destroy everyone else while i went for victory. God, I LOVE MARIOPARTY SO MUCH.
The Party Crashers taught me that Mario Party is incomplete without a moment of someone getting screwed over and getting so salty, they go on a rant while "The Doomsday Zone" plays in the background.
Only took until Section #4 for me to realize the intros for each section were themed after the minigame instructions screen for their respective numbered entry. Nice.
thank you for not adding a stupid "wow that was freaking lame im a loser!!!" self depreciation joke after that intro bit, that little thing makes this video wayyy better
This video has officially brought back my Mario Party autism. I love this series so much, and seeing you treat it with so much reverence and respect makes me real happy. Amazing video as always. You did not have to say ***get freaky with it*** though. You really didn't
11:30 You see this play out with the Party Crashers' channels; specifically their raid boss videos. (One player gets 5 stars to start, and the others have to put him in last to win). Both times they tried it, the raid boss in question had an utterly miserable time and got completely clowned on by the other three. King of Skill was their best minigame player and he ended his turn as the raid boss with zero stars.
They're especially good for "shut your trap" as King of Skill can comfortably win even when the other players know he's in a great position. More often than not two of them have entered a game long shouting match with each other and become more concerned with making sure someone gets last than they are with getting first.
Don't put down that Reverse Shroom just yet. While the triple boo move is a gimmick, the item itself is still very flexible and powerful for only 5 coins. It lets you get stars that spawn behind you, sneak behind skeleton key doors, force opponents away from their goals, or force them to use their golden mushroom when the star is right next to them.
Oh absolutely, I would argue that the item is actually essential in Woody Woods and still very good in Chilly Waters and especially Spiny Desert if you're farming the cactus. I have just seen entire games come down to "heehee, I am buying Reverse Mushroom Turn 1" on Chilly or Spiny and then it never gets used and you get stuck in one of the loops or on the ice and then you're trapped forever. It's very good, broken in a lot of situations, but I think it's overvalued by those "in the know" because of the potential massive return to the point where other strategies are just ignored.
Mario Party isn't just a game of luck. That's such a horrible misconception that it hurts to hear every time. No, Mario Party is a mix of minigame skill, measuring the odds and verbal mindgames. You can never know what'll happen in a Mario Party match, but you can try and sometimes it works out. Ultimately don't give up. There's always hope to win, even in the bleakest of moments. . .oh yeah, and have fun too! Partiers have one thing others do not: a franchise that never gets boring. Despite all the fun jokes that you'll lose friends, more often than not it'll just be in good fun. There's nothing in the world quite like Mario Party and that's something really special in my eyes. We should treasure it and thank it for giving us so many fun memories. Go on, play a game of Mario Party! Have a blast, whether you win or lose! Also join the Mario Party Netplay Discord group too, where many partiers across the world are ready to play!
Nah, the RNG gods will always ensure that Brent with (usually) come out on top, Nick and Vernias will come close (or occasionally snag a win) and Sophist will forever be damned to lose
Fun fact: When I was on the verge of divorce, we did a counseling thing where we gave a list of grievances to a third party to have them discuss it with us independently. One of them my (now) ex gave was that I always beat her at Mario Party. I knew then that there could be no compromise to save the marriage.
See, stuff like this is why I absolutely love Mario Party. There are so many things that you have to consider almost every turn and adapting around it is what makes it so fun. It really does make you feel like a mastermind when a simple plan of yours works and it shoots you ahead in the game and this video was a great explanation as to why this series is NOT just luck based. Even the smallest things have a big impact in Mario Party
The manipulation is one of my favourite things in games. One thing I like to do is to play the role of the person who's just trying to help you play the game optimally. You can earn someone's trust by telling them early on that it's most advantageous to target you. "You should steal the double dice from me, those are the most useful to you". Later on you can posit that "yes targeting me is most advantegous if you want X, but if you want Y then you should target the other player". If they target you you're not upset, they just logically chose option X. Then once it actually matters you can insist that the other person is shooting themselves in the foot by targeting you. Whatever the outcome of the game, insist that you were right during that key moment (Z won because you targeted me / Z was so far ahead there was nothing we could do / I won now but if you had targeted me Z would've won / I only won after you targeted me because I got really lucky) to condition them for next time that you really just want what's optimal for everyone.
If someone did that to me, I would treat them as Archenemy One: I no longer care about winning the game myself, my victory condition is just making you lose
@oak8594 You will never win with that strategy. Plus you show to everyone playing that you're bad at the game and what you say is biased driving the other players straight into my arms. Plus even if I have a lead I don't have a real lead because Oak is going to target me next anyway, so really the optimal play for the other two persons is to target each other or you instead. Maybe I won't win the game because of you, but I will win the trust of the other players because of you, and next time we just won't invite you for being toxic or a sore loser or whatever.
I'm sure most grew up playing against CPUs. Why not dominate minigames? Other players are just better CPUs, right? But I loooove tactics like these. "Why shouldn't I steal from you?" Is going into my lexicon during any multiplayer game now. He's like the evil side of Zoomzike.
Ok look I played a FANTASTIC game and somehow, SOMEHOW, you caught me through my flawless strategy. I also think of Shy Guy's Jungle Jam whenever chase plays. I wish we still had that game somewhere, that was so much fun.
Ok now I wanna see you against alpharad and/or the friends without benefits crew, that'd be fun. (they're "mario party tryharders" and friends without benefits has about an entire year of them playing neary all non-handheld mario party on their channel)
I think that the last tip is the most important one. Not only for actually keeping your friends, but to make everything before it that has anything to do with manipulation work. Not only does it make those cons more convincing like you mentioned, but seeing you be nice may influence someone later. Tell Luigi some good advice, and maybe he'll think about that when he tries to steal a star and be more likely to spare you. Or perhaps Wario saw how good that advice was, and will be more prone to manipulation later once he needs some help. Additionally, the more frequently you genuinely help people, the harder it is to know when you're playing them for a fool.
I already win close to every game of mario party I play. I have also always stuck to my morals, and purposely avoided doing anything too mean or tricky to my friends cause I want them to have a good time too. It seems though, my kindness has gone unappreciated. Recently, my friend has introduced me to a game he's been playing for over 14 years. He made very little effort to teach me the mechanics, played incredibly mean and dirty, and rubbed it in my face when he won. I don't want to just Win mario party anymore, I need to absolutely obliterate him. Thank you
If you've never played Mario Party, you just wouldn't get it. The torturous experience of losing coins every turn and being in last until the last second just to turn the situation around with the best exhilarating luck in the world... there's no other feeling that can get any close. If you see someone discussing Mario Party and they rate Bowser's Big Blast as a bad minigame, their opinion is worthless. They don't get it.
The best part about Bowser’s big blast is when you convinced yourself that it is in fact, not random and there is a consistent strategy to winning, my personal favorite is always go green
The moment I liked best in the video was "Why *shouldn't* I sic Boo on you?" advice - utterly phenomenal, especially when it's *not* your primary target. It gets a fraction of the "no, I'm not being unfair about this" energy of always random or holding the stick and trying to manipulate when you hit the button, while still letting you choose your target in advance
Hold the game hostage when it's your turn to move. Refuse to do anything no matter what. Then blame it on the one with the most bonus stars. Especially if they're not in first. Tell everyone that schemer bribed you and say, "WE thought that this would be funny, and it is!" Of course this, isn't graceful, and everyone will still hate you... But knowing you robbed a schemer their victory lap whilst saving everyone else from any more dread they can make... I'd say that'll be worth it, especially if you know how to expertly troll.
After seeing these mario party clips I was forced to start watching your whole mario party league VODs. Already seen eleven hours so far, always cheering for the funny monke-man that I don't know the name. (Mario party 8 9 and 10 are awesome.)
Ok, I’ve rewatched this a few times, and I just noticed how the sacrifice reference when talking about boo was foreshadowed earlier on with the “drastic go down” line when talking about getting ganged up on.
0:17 Nice to see you recognize the Koopaling fans as the *original* victims of the Mario Mandates. Waluigi and Toadsworth fans could never understand the true depths of our suffering.
All we need is 4 people like you (and me) to stream this locally played gameplay. Having this level of mind games and competitive gameplay with near sociopaths would be epic! The stream requires no censorship to work, there will be swears!
Just to let you know how good these tips are, after I learned them I have played 20 mario party games. And I have lost 3 of them. Once in MP8, once in superstars and once in MP7. And I have played all of the gamecube mario parties and superstars. Can't wait to crush my friends hope in Jamboree this october!
When one of my favorite channels uploads a video relating to my biggest special interest: this will be great. I'd like to think I'm quite skilled at Mario Party now (specifically 2-5, 6 and 7 are a bit of a weak point) but I'll never skip the chance to hear you talk about these games since from your other Mario Party videos, you're very knowledgeable. Would love to play a game against you.
As someone who grew up 100%ing the gamecube mario parties but had no siblings or friends, then was unleashed upon a friend group and found I was worse at button mashing? Who learned that to keep my pride alive, I'd need my manipulation as much as my board knowledge? I agree, that is a very normal way to be about mario party :3
I spent way too much time on Mario Party as a kid in the 90's and 2000's. I played Mario Party recently and oh WOW do I feel my body getting sluggish in middle age! Getting old sucks!
The problem is that I play with people who would watch your videos so once I'm like "hmm [x] probably has the coin star" they're gonna be like "oh great you watched the Designing For video" and target me twice as hard
Well you don't bluff with coin, you open by saying a bonus star you definitely do not have. Then you can work on that bonus star slowly as everyone else wants to oppress the OTHER target. The important thing is tricking them into becoming tunneled into one specific action. And then when everyone targets you anyway because you're Designing For and they don't trust a single thing you say and make intentionally bad decisions because they fear you, you point out every flaw their gameplan has. You point out everything that could've gone right that they're powerless to stop. You drag them down to the level of thuggery and they WILL relent, because your spirit is made of stronger steel. And then you get a lot of movement items and visit Boo at the end and win anyway.
Honestly I just target blue spaces that haven't been landed on often when it's been a while without a block. It's something worth a single freeform turn to try, especially if I'm down. Also the witch gave me the star.
I remember doing a 20 turn team game of snowflake lake, getting all of the opponents stars and frikin’ daisy hit the goddamn “miracle” space and swaps our 20 stars and 300 coins for no stars and 36 coins. All of this on turn 19. I love chance time.
Won't be following all of this advice because I do want to at least keep a few friends, but may I say these points are delightfully devilish. Love this video :D
I know there’s got to be a couple of people who got called out by the watching ZoomZike video. I should know because I’m one of them. Now excuse me I’ve got some family that I need to beat and possibly end up on a hit list.
So be a rival instead of a destroyer if you still want to play mario party again "You thought you were playing mario party" but you were getting played by me, DIO 💀💀💀
At one point I was in a position to steal a star from everyone in Superstars Horror Land as long as I would just say no to the star in front of me... I accidentally clicked yes and it ended up costing me the game. Most genius strat I have been in a position to pull off so far. and I failed it. Edit: It was also a strat I had been using time to set up for a large potion of the game due to the fact I kept getting unlucky with minigames and star placements but when I was able to get into the PERFECT position... I just failed.
Prefers the N64 Mario Party games, mastery of those games, focusing on 50 coins for Boo, manipulating the minds of your friends. Are you me? Great video. We have very similar playing styles and this was an entertaining watch.
I see that your perspective is definitely more inclined to the n64 mario parties, as a primary gamecube player myself I implement different ideas that work consistently, though considering the structure of the n64 titles. This advice definitely works for those, and even to a degree of the later mario parties there is just a somewhat different meta.
I would love to see a live stream of Pyrr building his own custom mario party board in a mod. And then a second stream of watching 4 friends compete on the board
“Why should I not steal from you” I say to my friend while looking him straight in the eye. While he is giving me his speech I act like I’m listening. Only about halfway through him explaining do I keep making eye contact with him as I press the A button while hovering his name, counting the seconds until he notices
Mario Party isn’t Mario Party until someone learns how to -manipulate- convince someone to take someone else’s star from boo. That truly is the friendship ruiner.
I still remember the time I managed to bluff my way into having someone else's star stolen over mine, which let me win the star. Good times

Mario and yoshi were playable in every single Mario party while Luigi and peach were in all of them (appeared in e but not playable)
Hearing the dokapon music tells me all I need to know
ah yes king of skill:the video
Just to let you know how good these tips are, after I learned them I have played 20 mario party games. And I have lost 3 of them. Once in MP8, once in superstars and once in MP7. And I have played all of the gamecube mario parties and superstars. Can't wait to crush my friends hope in Jamboree this october!
I love Mario Party! It's such a fun time. I try my hardest to get people to keep cool during it.

Didn't expect to see the Playable Toad mod, but pretty cool.
4:08 this is so relatable because my button mashing speed is awful
I already dont have any good friends so this is perfect
17:13 Hearing Steiner Math in a Mario Party video wasn't on my bingo card for this year...but I'm not complaining 🤣
When one of my favorite channels uploads a video relating to my biggest special interest: this will be great.
I'd like to think I'm quite skilled at Mario Party now (specifically 2-5, 6 and 7 are a bit of a weak point) but I'll never skip the chance to hear you talk about these games since from your other Mario Party videos, you're very knowledgeable. Would love to play a game against you.
When playing Mario Party 3, ALWAYS have a reverse shroom handy.
As someone who grew up 100%ing the gamecube mario parties but had no siblings or friends, then was unleashed upon a friend group and found I was worse at button mashing? Who learned that to keep my pride alive, I'd need my manipulation as much as my board knowledge? I agree, that is a very normal way to be about mario party :3
I love the usage of deep blue jeer
the video had to have some typos,
to hide the fact it's perfect :3
I didnt expect smt4 music in a mario party video but i very much appreciate it 😊
We need to send that to the Party Crashers. I can help them mabey.😂
No we need to send this to Sophist. He needs it the most.
His punishment for picking Wario
The most important tip. You pick WAAAA-
@@Magic_IceI don’t think it will help lol. The game has a vendetta against him with his abysmal luck. Though he hasn’t been losing just not winning
I spent way too much time on Mario Party as a kid in the 90's and 2000's. I played Mario Party recently and oh WOW do I feel my body getting sluggish in middle age! Getting old sucks!
Brent from the party crashers writing every thing down
What I learned from this video: Mario Party is basically just Big Brother
The problem is that I play with people who would watch your videos so once I'm like "hmm [x] probably has the coin star" they're gonna be like "oh great you watched the Designing For video" and target me twice as hard
Well you don't bluff with coin, you open by saying a bonus star you definitely do not have. Then you can work on that bonus star slowly as everyone else wants to oppress the OTHER target. The important thing is tricking them into becoming tunneled into one specific action.
And then when everyone targets you anyway because you're Designing For and they don't trust a single thing you say and make intentionally bad decisions because they fear you, you point out every flaw their gameplan has. You point out everything that could've gone right that they're powerless to stop. You drag them down to the level of thuggery and they WILL relent, because your spirit is made of stronger steel. And then you get a lot of movement items and visit Boo at the end and win anyway.
Was not expecting Steiner Math to explain Mario Party, but now it all makes sense
This is the type of guy to laugh at the end of a game and yell out amateurs! Once he's won
The way you described alot of this... the acting was finominal!
16:54 Imagine if they still choose you anyway.
I sure love Machiavelli-o Party
How to Lose Friends and Influence Boo Houses
BUT WHAT ABOUT THE HIDDEN BLOCKS?! EXPLAIN YOUR BULLSHIT LUCK WITH THOSE!!!
Honestly I just target blue spaces that haven't been landed on often when it's been a while without a block. It's something worth a single freeform turn to try, especially if I'm down. Also the witch gave me the star.
I remember doing a 20 turn team game of snowflake lake, getting all of the opponents stars and frikin’ daisy hit the goddamn “miracle” space and swaps our 20 stars and 300 coins for no stars and 36 coins. All of this on turn 19. I love chance time.
okay, so you play mario party like it's 5d irl diplomacy. got it.
Fun Fact: The best way to guarantee a win is by picking WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRIIIOOOOOOOOO!!!!
Won't be following all of this advice because I do want to at least keep a few friends, but may I say these points are delightfully devilish. Love this video :D
I was not The Life of the party,
I was The Death of the party.
I know there’s got to be a couple of people who got called out by the watching ZoomZike video. I should know because I’m one of them. Now excuse me I’ve got some family that I need to beat and possibly end up on a hit list.
I'm coming for you bro! I'm going to win next time!
Title of the video: How To Become A Mario Party MASTER (And Lose All Your Friends)
Me: so basically, becoming a Superstar?
So be a rival instead of a destroyer if you still want to play mario party again
"You thought you were playing mario party"
but you were getting played by me, DIO
💀💀💀
That intro is giving me channel awesome energy
Its a bold statement to say I have friends to give up for this knowledge lmao
33:01 It wouldn’t be fun if you could instantly stomp everyone and no one wanted to play with you or even worse everyone chooses to target you.
At one point I was in a position to steal a star from everyone in Superstars Horror Land as long as I would just say no to the star in front of me...
I accidentally clicked yes and it ended up costing me the game.
Most genius strat I have been in a position to pull off so far. and I failed it.
Edit: It was also a strat I had been using time to set up for a large potion of the game due to the fact I kept getting unlucky with minigames and star placements but when I was able to get into the PERFECT position... I just failed.

Prefers the N64 Mario Party games, mastery of those games, focusing on 50 coins for Boo, manipulating the minds of your friends. Are you me?
Great video. We have very similar playing styles and this was an entertaining watch.
I see that your perspective is definitely more inclined to the n64 mario parties, as a primary gamecube player myself I implement different ideas that work consistently, though considering the structure of the n64 titles. This advice definitely works for those, and even to a degree of the later mario parties there is just a somewhat different meta.
Now THIS is Mario Party!
I would love to see a live stream of Pyrr building his own custom mario party board in a mod.
And then a second stream of watching 4 friends compete on the board
Who needs friends when you have victory?
“Why should I not steal from you” I say to my friend while looking him straight in the eye. While he is giving me his speech I act like I’m listening. Only about halfway through him explaining do I keep making eye contact with him as I press the A button while hovering his name, counting the seconds until he notices
