Thanks, Sherman! I have or don't want a lot of those so I might reconsider...

Looks remarkably similar if not the same to last years pulls/list

I feel like art of play have had the Bruce Lee deck every year for the last 25 years because they printed too many of them and can't get rid of them all. Not a bad selection but I don't understand the allure. If I want one of these decks, I'll just buy it? Why spend money and take the chance of not getting what I want

Actually, it might be...I pulled it from the AoP website...they may not have updated it for this year's decks...

Sorry, Paul!

That's the 2021 list. Do you have information that it will be the same list this year or did you just copy paste it from the site? Pretty sure I saw a post about them putting out all new decks this year.

Edit: from reddit

“Mystery Decks are always exciting, for they fully embrace a spirit of surprise. However, this year will be different. Instead of wrapping a collection of decks from our catalog, we’ll be introducing an entirely new collection of decks—13 in total—and releasing them exclusively through our Mystery Deck offering. Some are rarer than others, and a few are so rare you might as well be winning the golden ticket.”

I'm back in!

The wording of this sounds to me like the Mystery decks will consist of 13 new decks only, but by the IG teasers, it seems that there might still be some decks from their current collection as a sneak peak of Overlook was shown…unless it’s an updated version with the same tuck. As always, I’m confused

With being said, I am gonna be picking up some decks for fun.

Recent IG post by Art of Play

"These brand new Messymod playing cards are one of twelve exclusive Mystery Decks you might unwrap this year. The fun begin Dec 5th."

But this is from their Reddit a few days ago

So is it twelve or thirteen exclusive decks? Make up your minds!

[GandalfPC]

One is so rare they only count it half the time

[GandalfPC]

Where the 12 and 13 meet:

[shermjack]

Glad they clarified that there will be 25 different decks available...Bruce Lee will definitely be one of them

[GandalfPC]

Had to check my inventory at P52 to be sure, but somehow I have managed to escape unscathed - probably had 3 or 4 bricks of mystery decks so far, not a single Bruce Lee deck… I feel like I have missed a right of passage…

[kevork]

This would be my first time participating if I decide to. Have you all historically felt content with these mystery decks? What time is the drop?

[GandalfPC]

9am MT

I’ve been quite pleased with mine

Well, I can hook you up if you like

[GandalfPC]

This was what I pulled in mystery decks (at least most of it)…. There were three IAOCP v2 that I pulled, some at least one pile is missing from the pics

[shermjack]

Wow...very nice pulls!

[Adamthinks]

How much are they charging for the mystery decks?

[GandalfPC]

Not sure this time around, but historically 12 bucks

[hsbc]

[kevork]

That first deck with the card people reminds me of something but I can't put my finger on it. Maybe the Alice in Wonderland card knights but I'm not sure.

[Adamthinks]

Well at that price, I'll have to throw in for some.

[Harvonsgard]

So they up the fomo by having 12 exclusive (for most likely only now) decks only for the mystery sale? Dunno why people still support these kinda schemes ?

I haven't purchased many AoP decks over the past few years so depending on the price, the reason I will buy some is to hopefully get a small discount on some decks I don't have. I'm not looking to strike gold but that would be nice.

[GandalfPC]

[hsbc]

No Bruce Lee! And I actually don't think I have any of the decks available.... I may actually pick some up this year
