I got a brick of the originals and haven't seen anything IMO that is as good since. You gotta be a fan boy to keep buying this shit. By originals you mean the black rounders or the theory11 Players? I have black and brown rounders, but I didn't get the red and blue ones because of the price tag. I ...

I don't really care if he releases these or not, I'm definitely not getting them. The only Madison Decks I really like are the Rounders. This one, the Kings and the Dealers just look... meh...

Well i dont think its just about the design, correct me if im wrong. The blue fontaines campaign came months late with almost no communication inbetween, 15000 were printed despite it clearly stating 1/5000 on the box. And that was just the last campaign. This campaign is clearly targeting those wh...

Call me old and curmudgeony if you want, but in the three years I've worked in this market the discernment of collectors has tanked and it's all about "completion syndrome" and not about art or history. I appreciate the designs you've created so far and I think the success you've had with...

I genuinely enjoy people getting mad about fountains being so popular. I'm just happy there are enough people out there that do NOT get sick of the "boring design" since all that is just subjective. I'll just leave this quote here for you to enjoy. https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x...

I liked the first back design, but not the faces. I might get some along with the blacks when they come out though, not sure yet.

I have nothing against color variations per se. What I find extremely distasteful is releasing one new variant every 3 months or so, because it's such an obvious money grab. There is literally no work being done in between other than gathering money from people, and there's no reason for all planne...

Black: nice!, Purple: meh., Teal: nice!, weird green: meh., brown: not bad., "yellow": meh.

I'm going to be honest here, I love fontaines and I won't be complaining about new colors, I'm looking forward to new editions.

yes. faster than I expected though.

Birger is one of the most creative cardists I know at the moment.

or he just watched too many sad yung lean videos:

I'm pretty confident the "designer" was really high during the whole process of "designing" and probably still is.

These are looking good but I'd prefer it if they weren't borderless.

I hope they will have white borders on the back but I think I will be disappointed :/ but I like the colors and I love circle backs so I might still be in for some.

I don't really care for the collector's box to be honest, since I'm not really a collector but I really love the designs of all 6 decks. (Don't get me wrong, the box looks great, but I don't really need it personally.) Will these be for sale individually, too? I sure hope so.

(Had a deck of Pressers once. ... once.)

I wouldn't have a problem with it being EPCC but I doubt E will work with anyone other than USPCC in the near future.

Those blurry images we see all over the place are a part of the marketing techniques companies use. And they keep popping up because it works.

I'll probably get some.

Thanks for your input. However the rank and suit alignment can be positioned in whatever way we feel best suits the deck. If you didn't realize, the deck is moonshine. Made in the back woods by hillbillies using car radiators. The real classy type. If we thought it should be positioned perfectly, w...

I'm pretty sure it's called "yo!"

want.

I really like the way they look now. I'm going to wait for resellers though.

I like the back but not the faces. While I definitely think that he has great talent, the deck just isn't for me.

The back isn't for me, sorry. But good luck with the deck!

Zach Mueller just launched his new website yesterday and you can learn the basics there, too. http://www.fontainecards.com/the-classics" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

I would suggest thin white borders on the back design.

I like the design overall and I especially like the court cards but I don't know if I'm a fan of the different coloured card faces for the different suits.

I like it but I wish the back design had thinner borders than this.

New Video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FgaoSDK1pFI I didn't make a tutorial for over a year now, and I kind of want to make one. The moves in this video are mostly my original moves (you'll notice the ones that aren't easily). If I were to make a tutorial for one of the flourishes in the video, ...

I would suggest Jaspas' channel "School of Cardistry" for a start. They go over the real basics and I'm kind of sad this channel wasn't around when I started, because I learned stuff in no particular order which wasn't the best idea... Here's the channel: https://www.youtube.com/user/Schoo...
