Interesting that these aren't Riffle Shuffle, or let's put not at first glance. The campaign is run under Solidarity Playing Cards. Has this to do with their we care about everthing service they offer?

Could've fooled me. This looks exactly like a RS campaign right down to the dumb private access tiers and emojis.

Edit: Just got an email from RS promoting this deck as their own. Weird that their name isn't on the campaign page at all.

I dare say, this almost looks more like a fist-bump to me than a raised-hand symbol.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. At first glance, I thought it was fist bump too and was wondering what all the hubbub in this thread was about.

I got an email from RS promoting the KS so fair to say that it is them.

Is it my imagination, or was Kevin Cantrell's STANDARDS a strong inspiration behind the design and colour choices of the Solidarity deck?

Solidarity was created by Intertype Studio, and over on their website for this deck they don't mention any specific designer names, but just this: "We were commissioned to create a limited-edition deck of cards for Riffle Shuffle playing card co."

Here's some comparisons, with Solidarity on the top in each picture, and STANDARDS on the bottom. There seem to be some eerie similarities in the vibe somehow, but maybe it's just a coincidence.
