Re: Fathom Playing Cards from Ellusionist
I like the box as well as the cards itself.
E's decks design is always my favorite.

Re: Fathom Playing Cards from Ellusionist
Well, looking at the picture of the box it seems well-matched to the theme so I can't be too down on it. I'm looking forward for my package's arrival, I really like what I've seen of this deck. My only real issue (in that it stops me from giving them all my money) with E is decks that aren't custom enough for my tastes, and it seems like this one scratches that itch very nicely.

Re: Fathom Playing Cards from Ellusionist
What´s written on the bottom of the box?
I read some long time ago that Seasons Playing Cards (ALex Chin) designed a deck for Ellusionist.
Might be the Fathom deck or maybe a new premium deck from E.

The top of the box and the front of the box has the word, "Fathom". Nothing on the sides or tuck flap.

Re: Fathom Playing Cards from Ellusionist
I like tihs deck on the whole but I was sorely disappointed that the box was completely basic 4-color art. Even a basic emboss would have added so much to an overall great design! Shame really, as the rest is quite nice.

Yeah, I was disappointed the tuck box had no embossing as well... Great looking deck though...Encarded wrote:I like tihs deck on the whole but I was sorely disappointed that the box was completely basic 4-color art.

Re: Fathom Playing Cards from Ellusionist
I received my Fathom deck and I have to credit E for not going in the direction of many other companies now-a-days, and actually consistently coming up with unique artwork on each deck. Although I'm not a huge fan of the court cards, at least it's custom rather than the boring default pips. The box isn't GREAT but it's definitely not terrible by any stretch. I really like the back design and I've had no problems with the handling at all. The lack of ink makes them nice and slick and helps prevent much clumping
