Blvck Spades Playing Cards live on Kickstarter

I dream of a world where wars are fought only by having dance offs. I also dream that a Finnish playing card designer would exist. The former seems more likely to happend.

Re: Blvck Spades Playing Cards live on Kickstarter
Seriously, blVck?
Anyhow, the campaign is a bit confusing. The first thing you see is a black tuck boxed deck and the campaign name is Black Spades. But the standard tier deck is a red one... other than that, a solid deck with good/decent artwork. To get to my wallet there had to be some more at the face cards though. Pass.

Re: Blvck Spades Playing Cards live on Kickstarter
Not bad at all. But thanks to JR's moving sale, PCD's clearance sale and 2 Lotrek decks, I'm all wiped out.

F&*k, that artwork is amazing, but the name of the deck is awful. Decisions...

Is it pronounced Black or Bluck? I set a reminder, I would like to see what addons are available before I pledge. Like if there a set where I can get one of each.

Re: Blvck Spades Playing Cards live on Kickstarter
Wait... Why is the deck called "Blvck Spades" when the spades are gold..? Also, why are the spades gold and the clubs black? I am f&*king confused and not pledging for these...

Re: Blvck Spades Playing Cards live on Kickstarter
Besides being poker playing cards, they are apparently designed for a game called black spades. In that game the 2 of diamonds and all the spades are trumps, this is why they are golden and the clubs black. At least this is what I get from the campaign. Don't know that game either...TwoPiece wrote:Wait... Why is the deck called "Blvck Spades" when the spades are gold..? Also, why are the spades gold and the clubs black?

Re: Blvck Spades Playing Cards live on Kickstarter
$20 for one non-standard deck shipped? Not quite good enough for that price. Campaign deck names are also a little confusing in the reward tiers IMO.

Re: Blvck Spades Playing Cards live on Kickstarter
Not a slam dunk for me, but I do like the courts and US$10 is reasonable... but $15 on top of that to ship a single deck to Canada is simple greed.
*No money for you*
We’ll see if it funds and see if the aftermarket has a more reasonable attitude to mail costs.

Re: Blvck Spades Playing Cards live on Kickstarter
New limited edition exclusively released on Amazon the other day https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0815 ... UTF8&psc=1
New side opening tuck and apparently some other minor changes I believe, printer not listed but I assume it's the same as before. Pricey as hell though, $25 shipped but seems no international shipping.

Re: Blvck Spades Playing Cards live on Kickstarter
Did anyone pick up one of these? How do they handle?
I see from the official product pages that the side-loading tuck pictured above was just a limited edition version. The standard versions all have regular tuck boxes.
In 2020 they also created a customized version of this deck specifically for DJ Demp to commemorate the 23rd annual Demp Week, which are similar to the standard versions, but with a slightly different tuck box.

Re: Blvck Spades Playing Cards live on Kickstarter
These guys have now produced a number of decks that are part of the Blvck Spades family, all with the ancient Egypt theme, and with customization of certain cards for playing Spades:
Here's a look at an uncut sheet from one of the decks:
I've used a few of these decks now, which are printed in China, and the quality and handling of the cards is solid.

Re: Blvck Spades Playing Cards live on Kickstarter
This foil backed version with all female courts looks pretty cool.
