With all the output of KWP, there're very few KWP completists left, who buy every deck of his regardless so, if a deck has more than 300 copies I don't expect it to sell out asap anymore. Especially in the kinda antique inspired/table players decks realm. Having those decks readily available was one of the reasons why I said f*ck it and ordered despite having to pay a good amount of import taxes on top (F-U-C-K Y-O-U EU!). Let's see how long shipping takes though and if there will be additional fees on top (f**k you again EU - thanks for nothing). Maybe this experience will remind me why I stopped buying KWP decks for a long time.
You want to reclaim your mind and get it out of the hands of the cultural engineers who want to turn you into a half-baked moron consuming all this trash that’s being manufactured out of the bones of a dying world.

As long as you don’t attempt to be a completionist he has plenty of nice decks - and surely many more to come

And if you like second chances, he has an edition for you ;)

I like the backs of V1 and the courts of V2 but color wise they would not compliment each other

Not a fan of belly bands on cards (or pretty much anything for that matter). They don't stay nice.

If second chances being older decks being revived, then yeah, I’ve been longing onto a hope that Nutcracker can see the light again. I’ve been wanting to see that deck for a long time, yet others just make it hard on me
