Re: Rational Relative Deck Comparison

Don’t forget, we have to consider the relative humidity and length of time the two decks have been exposed to said humidity. Oh. And the heat index. Age of cards and whether the cards have been swimming in cold water recently... (guys know what I mean...)

Rational Relative Deck Comparison

OK, Enough, maybe this has been proposed before, Maybe I'm a genius. No slight against Magic Orthodoxy, but the thickness of 10 cards stated in millimeters is of absolutely no use to me. I propose a new, simple, intuitive, approachable, comparable deck thickness measurement. Meet the "bike"...

Re: C R Y P T -Mystery deck n.3

I saw the pictures posted on Reddit earlier today (which have since been revoked by the poster) I purchased the Crypt deck myself.

Re: Wayfarers Playing Cards by Joker and the Thief

I always hesitate with JT decks because the designs look too busy... then I buy them... and the decks are so well printed and executed that I love them.

Alhambra Secrets

I recently bought a deck of Alhambra Special Edition cards.

I've seen reference to "several secret features hidden in the deck." and have found a few strange irregularities in teh printing of the backs but I can't figure out if this is a marking system or what?

Any hints or ideas?

Looks like he has designed one other deck before as mentioned “ Phoenix Apocalypse Playing Cards” which look amazing. And his work on the Behance link is really cool too.

Personally, I’ll take a pass on these, but he definitely has caught my eye.
