Rounders Playing Cards by Daniel Madison

[Evan]

In the latest episode of Revelations from Ellusionist, Daniel Madison is using a black version of the Players deck. They look pretty cool IMO, so I hope they will be released soon!

[MagikFingerz]

Of course it looks better, otherwise the white ones wouldn't have been released first

Me likey those thin borders though.

[lumpyliew]

Wow . DM never fails to amaze me . Players are awesome with marking system . Now thin borders and custom courts . Should be released by Ellusionist

[Paul Middleton]

If that's an Ellusionist deck, I'm not sure it's a Players. I don't think they would release a deck with the same name as a T11 it wouldn't make sense. Surely it's a new DM/E deck.

Besides it doesn't look like a black version of a Players deck either.

Isn't that the same logo as Players in those pics?

[Paul Middleton]

It's just the DM logo from his branding/site. http://www.danielmadison.co.uk" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Should be having another name but produced by E . Since DM is now with E

Pretty much what I was getting at. It certainly won't be a Players deck.

Hey guys

This deck was shipped to Black Club members for free. It's called Madison Rounders

Thanks to DelMagic for the pics










And my deck came in yesterday...

These are nice and simple, and they look good. I'm looking forward to their release.

Sleek thin borders I supposed ... Great deck!

I was really regretting my Black Club membership, but this was definitely a pleasant surprise. The hand signed note from Madison was a nice touch as well. Hopefully E continues to add value to their Black Club membership and this is a good step in the right direction.

I like that look. I was just practicing the rising card with my Brown Wynns yesterday and these kind of remind me of them. I am still glad I did not get sucked into the Black Club thingy.

Anyone else thinking that the dedrawing of faces getting a little ugly? Db's version was still decent, but some of these are just bad

[lumpyliew]

I hoped to see more customizations on the cards .

Is it just me or are the court cards based on his friends he does magic with in the UK? See http://the52.magicisdead.com/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;


It also looks like DM is the K of diamonds.

[Magic_Orthodoxy]

I agree, they look like stylish Wynn's. I'd love to own em, too bad I can't really afford the black club.

[alric]

I might be wrong here, but I thought the free deck previews were only for Black Club members, but that these would eventually be sold to the general public on E.

I like the simplicity of the deck and the comparisons to Wynns are appropriate, but Im a bit disappointed with the box, way too plain.

[Sinsandman]

BC members got a shot at these today. The rest of us will get them tomorrow

On the page, there's a note from Daniel Madison:

I tested over 50 different stocks and finishes to find and create my perfect deck of playing cards.

Really? Are there even that many? I'm all for hyping up a deck but that statement just seems a little much to me.

I agree. Unless he went outside USPCC (and even then it's a reach), it sounds like a gross exaggeration.

[cosmicsecret]

Its all marketing...as i saw the trailer i was like : really? is that the rockstar style and image you want to sell with those cards?
The target audience of E doesnt know that there are no 50 stocks - but the number sounds mighty bad ass better then : I tried 5 diferrent stocks...

[Magic_Orthodoxy]

NOT THE FLAT SCREEN!

In a few hours time I believe.

Available now

I tested over 50 different stocks and finishes to find and create my perfect deck of playing cards.

LOLicakes. I guess what he actually meant was he tested the 3 or so from USPCC and then went to Office Max and played in the paper and stationary section for a while before determining that going with the normal USPCC selections would make the most sense.

I appreciate marketing to true strengths, but that one is silly.

[max]

i didn't know there were so many stocks to test...

$6,99 now. That's a reasonable price.... I wonder the feeling of those bidding for $40 unfinished auctions...

By the way... Are these very limited? I am not sure when I am going to be able to buy them...

[Evan]

I went to the product page, saw the "tested over 50 different stocks and finishes," and then I X'd out.
