They're different than the ones he sells in the original post. The deck in the video looks like green NOCs with very faint black stripes, not visually enhancing at all.

FYI, backerkit lockdown is on the 19th. Too soon though. Not sure if I have enough funds for all the add-ons I want.

Yup but that's just what I look for in a fan (not like I can really fan anyway).

The cards still seem too individualistic. A cool fan would be when the cards in a deck seem seamless.

Just had an epiphany while studying and now I'm leaning towards Giovanni.

Would be cooler if it could double up as a deck display.

Definitely has some Rick Davidson flavor in it but it doesn't seem to be his style. Can't really say it's Giovanni for sure though. I guess time will tell for those out of the loop.

If it was a joke, I don't think the creator would have bothered to change the account picture. And misrepresenting LPCC is taking it too far.

Not Japanese enough for me.

Early bird is just 1gbp less than the regular rate. I'll just star it for now.

Wasn't able to grab a calaveras deck during its kickstarter so I'm glad I could get these. This is going to be the first time I'm spending more than usual through backerkit. There are still osme Arcana goodies I need to get my hands on.

Oh I see. Damn, that's pretty cool.

Pretty cool twist to an uncut sheet.

Edit: Can't recall the exact dimensions of an uncut sheet but I'm assuming this is more of a "print" than an "uncut sheet of playing cards" since the uncut sheet is inseparable from everything else (?).

I like the suits, I'll give them that but everything else is just nah.

I like the illustrations but I won't be playing chess with them. Starred for now since no double deck early birds.

Same here. They should have gone with a different direction than using the same skull back.

If you're going with the one-way back posted earlier than the Ace of Spades would be disappointing since it would seem like a copy+paste job.

That's one tough contest. 14 out of 80 is close to being a lottery.

I got my 3 decks + 1. Wanted to get the 6 for the tutorial but I figured I was rather ambitious since I'm hardly a cardist.

Aw man, I have a futsal game on that time. Hopefully they won't sell out by the time I get back.

Their early bird tier is the most expensive. I think they mean that you're supposed to have your rewards delivered way ahead of everyone else but estimated delivery date is still the same with every other reward.

And I assure you uspcc gave them the lowest price possible, just like the one for "biggest one"price would be the same no matter if they want to print 20k or 55k. There is a minimum $$ that uspcc cant go below. Asking for proof when you don't even provide any. Rather silly :ugdance: . We'...

I find the alternating back design kind of ridiculous. They won't be completely alternating anymore once you shuffle them. And I'm no cardist but I don't think their alternating design would be visually appealing. The thing I like about the Virts deck and some card tricks is how seamless the whole t...

Did you open one? How are they?

I find the colors to be too bold to be stained glass. The stained glass pattern is sort of there but I think it lacks intricacy. Stained glass usually has bold colors. Yeah but stained glass is also translucent. It doesn't seem to have that feel. "Bold" was probably a wrong choice of word.

They just keep milking money with the same designs. Good for them it seems to be working since they're already funded.

Somehow I love the tuck and would have bought a brick of these just for them alone (there's something appealing seeing them side by side) if they had cheaper prices. $99 for a brick is just a few dollars off a USPCC produced brick of cards.

I was eyeing the Green Club deck on ebay before but I couldn't do it at the listed bid price. I try not to spend too much on vintage decks. I don't think I have the necessary knowledge to foster a proper vintage collection.

I hope all these pre-orders aren't going to affect those planning to buy straight from the virts site.

Uhmm i guess its just us buddy

Just noticed what you guys were talking about and I agree and hope they change that too. I mean, isn't 3 court cards per suit enough?
