No. The treassure is a gilded gold on gold deck with cold foil. The Dynastinae is a REDACTED on REDACTED Deck using REDACTED printed by Lotrek. The tempest in a bottle will be a variant of the Dynastinae. But Impossibly sealed in a glass bottle.

Btw I plan on going over all of this stuff in the livestream on Friday!
I hope there's pictures of the rest of the decks :)

There will be pictures as we unlock items. Maybe not the Dynastinae... it's Lotrek afterall.

From what has been shared, Dusk is hands down my favorite. Something with purple color that screams BEAUTIFUL!

Final images going up. NOTE: the cardbacks will be altered digitally to represent the latest three-color design. Prototypes were printed before we made that revelation

Below is the AoH for the Midnight and Treasure editions which will feature red and gold cold foil.

I've left a comment on the prelaunch page, but since it wasn't changed yet, guess I'll leave it here just in case:

If DUSK and OCEAN are the basic decks, and MIDNIGHT is the numbered premium deck, I suggest changing the sequence of decks in the pledge tiers that involve the trio. Currently, in those tiers the Ltd MIDNIGHT edition (the stretch-goal deck) is sandwiched between the standard DUSK and OCEAN, which might confuse some backers.

Funded in just four minutes! :ugdance:

Edit: Seems you were half right. Got double the funding in 11 minutes.

I predicted yesterday to Gentleman and Lotrek that the premium tier wouldnt last the first hour and that the campaign would hit 1 quarter million dollars I think I will be right ob both counts

I am in for a brick but man the Complete Tempest tier is down to 28 remaining out of 100. Maybe I should jump on that but the price jump is pretty steep for really not knowing what you will get.

Yeah I'm in for the complete, but I'll probably sell off any duplicates to offset the cost.

I couldn't see it go live. I tried forever to get it to load. I finally had to get an update from a previous Kickstarter with the link to get in. It had been up for like 5 minutes. That is so frustrating.

I've been collecting for not nearly as long a length of time as the two of you, but even I've had that happen to me on than one occasion. Nowadays, I make sure to click the "notify on launch" button and my phone simply sends me a direct link on the kickstarter app as soon as it's up. Might be a good idea, just a suggestion.

I'm curious, does anyone know what the fastest grossing custom playing card campaigns have been, whether speed to funding, or total amount raised, or total amount raised on day 1 (or any measures you could imagine)? Seems to me like this has to be up there.

This campaign took off fast due to some strong core support and those 100 Collector tier rewards at $415 each. That tier sold out in about an hour. I expect growth to be a bit slower. That said, if you can swing it, I do like the brick tier. Get what you can afford. The rarest deck will be a 200 deck option that I don’t know much about, but assume it is something crazy produced by Lotrek.
