He mentioned on Instagram they'll have more waves

[Harvonsgard]

Good news.

Aesop Rock Orbits currently in stock at orbit.af again. For those who missed out.

[brownsl]

Sold out already

I picked up a deck from the Aesop Rock store when these came out, I like a few of his songs and the art is dope so why not Still kinda hate the courts they use though...

[STLBluesNut]

the tuck and back design are so good. then them f%^king puke courts.

[hsbc]

Can you even imagine courts in the same art style???

[STLBluesNut]

it would have been great with some kind of custom courts matching the rest of the design. i cannot describe how much i dislike standard court bodies with real people faces pasted on them.

[Harvonsgard]

What irks me the most is the colour scheme of the courts. The orange fits nothing on the tuck and back design. That rift is what makes the deck from potentially best Orbit deck to mediocre at best.

This deck definitely makes me appreciate that the majority of a poker deck are number cards.

[STLBluesNut]

i get what you are saying but those courts would still be s^&t no matter the color.

Two new editions released at Cardistry-Con, CC V2 and a collab with rapper Mac Lethal (spiritual successor to the Aesop Rock deck) The text is "冬の失恋" meaning "winter heartbreak" - it's also on the cover art for his album called..... Winter Heartbreak II

the beach deck is neat looking but i always get disappointed when i open orbits up and see the real people faces on the standard court bodies. i only bought the last deck of orbits because the color scheme was orange. it may be my last orbit purchase unless they do something with those courts.

[STLBluesNut]

damn those courts are awful. shame since i ilke everything else.

[Harvonsgard]

Nothing new for Orbit decks. Doesn't help that Daniel Schneider is the lead designer.
When it comes to Orbit decks I wish I could get a deck made from 52+4 double backers.

[STLBluesNut]

i didn't realize DS was the designer for them. that does make a lot of sense now. i am surprised they haven't used his revolutionary 2 years in the making standard courts with slightly straighter lines if you zoom in really close courts.

[Harvonsgard]

Daniel started to work for Orbit quite early on. Don't take my word for it but if I recall correctly he's on board since the V3. Orbit uses DS courts.
