Courts are alright. If not repeating and when the deck goes on sale I'll grab one or two copies.

Re: Sembras Playing Cards by Theory11 [June 16]
My only quibble is the phrase "Cartas y Naipes" at the bottom. "Cartas" and "Naipes" both mean "cards", so it's like saying "Cards and Cards."

That ace of spades kinda looks like a wardrobe malfunction.

Re: Sembras Playing Cards by Theory11 [June 16]
Perhaps it’s Portuguese (making the words mean cards & suits?) - Sembras meaning “seeds” instead of the Spanish “you sow”?

Re: Sembras Playing Cards by Theory11 [June 16]
I love the tuck case and the overall design and layout, but I'm not a big fan of the courts, or the illustration style for that matter. Not sure what it is.

Super meh. Overwhelmingly average. Painfully unspectacular.

The trailer on their Instagram for the deck is sick, almost looks like I'm about to watch a new television series. Always welcome an original deck from t11, this one looks rad. Love the yellow and gold combo, multi-color back, and all custom art.

And that's why you come to UnitedCardists, and not the bottom of the t11 product pages lol.
Assuming of course that the artistic subjectivity of strangers is of some consequence to one's purchasing decisions. Why do they feature reviews again?

Bump
After looking at last year's P52 award nominees, I revisited this one
I cannot ignore my disappointment in the back color in comparison to the tuck color
Being a Backs guy - it is the only thing holding me back
I like the folk art in the style of Rivera - how good would an actual Rivera deck be!
Come on T11, you love to do multiple color editions - release a 2nd edn with a card back like the tuck of this edition
Here is a link to the Card Guy's excellent review
