Wonso (Elements) Korean-themed deck

Unread post by ivanrogov »

I'm working on a Korean-themed deck called Wonso (or 'elements' in Korean). Colors and suits are from the South Korean flag, with other elements from Taoism. Suits and pips are non-traditional, using trigrams instead of the usual pips. This is the Poker version, as I've also have some designs for an octagonal version.

When you say poker version, I assume you mean poker-size version. These could not be used for poker. If anything, they would be considered the bastard child of an Korean art deck. For an experimental project, I wish you luck, but this has a zero chance of success as a commercial/Kickstarter venture.

Agreed. There's no reference to the standard poker deck and how it's supposed to be used outside of just an art collection. The Korean theme is nice and, if the art is good, I would back an Asian theme poker deck or even Magic/Game token deck , but not a random art deck that's unrelated to anything.
