Why KS this time though?

I'm just curious if they'll just be color switching every other city and ask for that steep price for a recustomized back design and AoS?

$24 for a single Chicago and $46 for one New York + Chicago?

NO.

I really like the look of the New York deck but the price kept me away. Nothing has changed with the Chicago variant, unfortunately. I will probably add to my wishlist and hope the price goes down in a year. *shrug*

Def one for the wishlist, IDK if the price on these will be going down however, unless they go on sale again. I might wind up just backing it.

Kind of a rubbish deck that tries to hide its boringness and missing esprit with a fancy tuck to chime its way into collector's wallets. I would prefer they just offer a standard bike deck instead with that tuck box and then sell it for $10 instead of more then $20.
This EXCLUSIVE SERIES will be a MUST HAVE for your playing card collection!

... you've lost me at exclusive in caps lock.
You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

I quite like the design, with the the exception of CHICAGO written on every bloody surface.

And, yeah, the price point is terrible.

Just like the NYC deck, the tuck is great, the backs are alright, the courts are recolored but at least it's a fairly attractive recolor - but the price is utterly outrageous. These decks should be going for $10, no more.

If they someday get around to Denver, maybe I'll buy one. But only if they include Blucifer somehow.

Pass. Maybe a Vegas deck might do.
