Re: Chronos by Lotrek (Oath Playing Cards)
I got mine! Just one deck. I generally like it a lot. A minor oddity is that the values and pips on the front look a bit 'fuzzy' to my eyes due to the somewhat unusual borders. Note they actually are not fuzzy, just appear so to me unless I look closely. One of the finishes I like in my magic tricks 'Triumph' looks great in a standard fan of this, but the finish isn't well suited to doing the fan easily. Tuck box is great. Overall a great deck in my "Collector's" portion of my collection (as opposed to the magic portion)

Re: Chronos by Lotrek (Oath Playing Cards)
Got my Players Editions just in time
Ooooh...
Man that tuck is just gorgeous.
considering I didn't get the LE directly from Lotrek, was pleasantly surprised to have a matching number!

Yeah they kinda fan like crap, but dribbles and springs are really light! Probably not gonna be using these in any routines anytime soon, just pure collector pieces for me.rgamble wrote:but the finish isn't well suited to doing the fan easily.

Re: Chronos by Lotrek (Oath Playing Cards)
I just received mine today, the tuck is beautiful, the finish on the cards smells a bit strong though lol. Probably wouldn't have commented except that I got #004, which is the lowest numbered deck I have and was surprising to see even though I don't go in for that kind of thing.

They should had been shipped. These are shipping from USA and I'm waiting from Gambler's to update me regarding the status.Gonzalo wrote:Does anyone know when the Less decks bought at the same time as the Chronos are going to be shipped?

Will this just be "Red Chronos" or how could it be named?Harvonsgard wrote:Look what I found ... What kinda stock Lotrék???
Or will it be the Collectors Edition? Since the White one is just Chronos.

Re: Chronos by Lotrek (Oath Playing Cards)
This week I will print the Charmers Red and Signature decks. The stock arrived a few days ago and I wanted to check some things, mainly how metallic inks look like when printed on it, so I had to print something!
From that perspective, this deck was necessary

Re: Chronos by Lotrek (Oath Playing Cards)
The AoS on the Carmina definitely has added details.
Btw, I just went and played through the Chronos Collector (metallic back) and the Chronos Player (foiled back). Turns out the original Collector fans a LOT better than the Player

Re: Chronos by Lotrek (Oath Playing Cards)
Lotrék teased another pic of his Chronos Carmina with the caption soon. So get your credit cards locked and loaded.
I'll sit this one out since, the Collector's ed. is enough Chronos for me atm. The red looks beautiful though. I like it better than the first Player's ed. I will definitely pick one up when funds aren't scarce for me anymore.

Re: Chronos by Lotrek (Oath Playing Cards)
This is looking like a Theory 11 product. The tuck is wicked nice. Of course, in this case the deck is sweet too (I assume). I'll wait to find out the pricing before I commit. Although I can't imagine not being in for a couple at least.

Re: Chronos by Lotrek (Oath Playing Cards)
The difference is that for TXI this would be their absolute top tier deck. For Lotrék it's just a test run for a paper stock he uses for the Charmers .
As for price tag, I'd expect it to be close to or the same like for the first player's ed. but don't ask me how much that was since I didn't get one nor was I interested.

Re: Chronos by Lotrek (Oath Playing Cards)
I'm fine with the black one so I'll sit this one out too unless there's something more added to it.
I'm still saving myself for the Royal Golden Oath deck.

For those who were interested in the Chronos Carmina edition of the deck, Lotrek announced on IG that it's exclusively sold by JP Games.
LE of 1000 decks, JP is doing a pre-order of 100 decks at UK16.99 instead of the retail of 18.99. Grab it now if you want.

Re: Chronos by Lotrek (Oath Playing Cards)
Thanks Eric
Just a quick update on that, we've increased the number available at £16.99 to 150 decks, of that I think there is about 20-30 left. So i'd imagine the price will end pretty soon.
All pre-orders will be despatched around Wednesday 20th May. Some of the early orders that came through may not have seen that date before checking out, but we'll make sure everyone is emailed over the next couple of days.
This is an absolutely stunning deck, and we're very proud to be working so closely with Lotrek. He's always been a top drawer artist!

Re: Chronos by Lotrek (Oath Playing Cards)
I know that you are from the Ukraine so maybe there is somthing lost in translation. The deck is a new release. Legendary was referring to the designer who puts it out.
