If we're talking about impossible, you can't get higher that that.

heheh - good one, but I'm guessing the EPA wouldn't let them import it/them since I'm told that those cards are killers (literally, you might have a perfect handling deck, but the kid/dog eating one could be fatal). Maybe people should know this anyway: they aren't re-creatable because of that fact - they're toxic.

Drats. Thought I had it.

Programmable OLED cards. You could change the faces and backs to be whatever deck you want.

Does it have to do with christianity/religion?

How game changing is this game changing deck going to be ? I'm leaning towards very game changing

Invisible ink that can only be seen during a full moon

Hey, im a newbie and this sounds absurd but is it a deck where the front and back are the same. Hahaha, that would be funny.

Maybe it's another UC deck but instead of being annual it's now quarterly. So a UC2014-Q2 deck.

After all this, it better be truly game changing. And I don't mean Andrei Jikh T11 game changing....

Could it be... fireproof cards???

EDIT:

Damn, did a quick Google and this showed up... on the UC too! I guess it's not fireproof cards...?

Fireproof Bicycle playing cards made for NASA are mentioned in the article "NASA Studies Methods To Assist Firefighters" released in the Spartanburg Herald, Monday, November 30, 1970. (see link under "Sources") Standard Bicycle cards were printed on fireproof paper supplied by Scheuffeln Paper Company of West Germany and worked into usable playing cards by the USPCC technical director. The NASA emblem was embedded in the rider back design.

Half moon logo watermark embedded into cards. Ala banknotes

Transparent paper playing cards !

Nope... Way too easy, sorry!

it is going to be the most minimalist deck out there.

White tuck case, and nothing inside it, - so minimalist that there is nothing there.

It will be like the Emperor's new clothes syndrome, where no one is willing to say, but wait there are just no cards in there, because the majority will say oh wow it is amazing the most minimalist deck ever, the idea is just so amazing. So everyone will just buy an empty white tuck case.

Thus turning the card market on its head, as it will outsell everything in the decks of cards market, as everyone will just have to have it, but there is no deck of cards.

Good idea for next time. But not even close...

Something that will astound everyone and show them how something un-doable can be done.

I have to leave for work, but I can say many good guesses but nope, nope, nope ( nope).

And yes, it is truly game changing and not just smoke and mirrors...

Instead of air cushion, how about liquid cushion cards?

Nope and nope...

Fireproof cards that are smooth to handle.

OH I KNOW ! Tarot cards that are printed by EPCC !

the cards are being made out of moon rock. or are being sprinkled with moon dust.

A magnetic deck of cards?

I would have guessed a new addition to the D$D S&M series even thought they said they wouldn't ever release any more but that wouldn't be game changing

What about a glass deck of cards strong enough to use?

Plastic cards have been made, see-thru cards, foil, steel cards have been done, carbon fiber, metallic inks, white cards, black cards, money cards, nudie cards, cat cards (PLEASE NO MORE!!!), dog, pony, and obviously paper.

So, are we talking a new style of printing, a new medium (really, what's left besides ice?), 3D printed cards would just be too expensive.

I'm outta ideas. Next...

Ohh maybe Leather cards. But that would be really expensive.

Hahah not to mention really thick.

Or a deck made of cheese?
