Re: Kingstar Carat Cases - Misleading the Public?

Re: Chaos by Thirdway Industries

I'll walk my last statement back a bit by saying it was early, I was tired, I saw the second pledge tier being 43€ for the gilded kingstar deck and said to myself, wtf? Then later I saw that if you buy a bunch of decks it becomes cheaper. My bad. Congrats Gio. I still pass but maybe on the next one.

45€ doesn't break my bank in any way, only my sensibility. Others can have my place too.

Re: Chaos by Thirdway Industries

Looks like there is no guarantee that there will be no duplicates if a few Bestiary decks are purchased and the prices are probably going to have me pass on this. EB price is 43€ for the Pandemonium deck, really? The decks have a nice design, Gio did well.I am curious to see how the campaign does, f...

Re: Ronin by kings wild project

So, I like this deck. I like the art, the name Ronin is cool, the pips are fine, overall it fits into the kind of strongly themed deck I like. My only issue is with the tucks. It feels very basic to me. Not that you can't have cool minimalist tuck design and I'm sure it cuts down on costs and simpl...

I agree with a lot of Honeybee suggestions. The colors need be more consistent to be playable imo. Gl with your campaign.

Re: Chaos by Thirdway Industries

But it feels a little bit like Unbroken-lite. Shouldn't be intended to be a deck where everyone feels compelled to go after every version. Not that it will stop some people. Our individual compulsions are not Gio's fault. ;) I'm not trying to armchair diagnose anyone, but my experience among collec...

Re: Chaos by Thirdway Industries

I will definitely let everyone know. Maybe I will like the pink more in person. Remains to be seen. I am curious if that version with the white and holo will have different cards or if it is just a tuck swap. I think every deck has the exact same cards except for the gilded one which is same cards ...

I like 7/8 of these. I will grab one and hope I don't end up with the fluorescent pink as it is my least favourite. I do like the limited edition tuck the best but might be too pricey for me to acquire. There is now a 75% chance you will get the pink one 😉, but seriously, do let UC know which one y...

Let's go through all the rules just to be sure. Suggesting that someone's comment is too much in some way for them to be a new user is begging someone to look into a ban jumper with the goal of having them banned again.

red and blue can look akin in the right light, at an angle, squinting perhaps if it's difficult to see.
