Great list, though I think Anubis/Osiris is a tad low

Thanks Bacon!

I don't think the court cards in Anubis/Osiris are as good as some of the other decks in my collection and it is right where I think it deserves it to be.

I organize my decks my personal preference in my Ikea cabinet. Top drawer has the best decks, the second one has the second best etc. The bottom drawer has my unopened decks, the top surface of my drawer has everything not poker sized. The first three drawers hold 108 decks each, the bottom three hold 144 decks but as the bottom one has my unopened decks, the second last one holds my least favorite decks and that is filled to that 144 decks. The third most bottom drawer holds also 144 decks but has currently only 123 decks.

The Anubis/Osiris pair are currently the lowest ranked decks in the top drawer.

List updated with:
Thorns & Roses
Ragnarok
Helheim
Sumi
The Planets: Neptune
The Planets: Saturn

I don't even have many more decks than that after I trimmed the fat, as much as I love throwing on some tunes and engaging in time-consuming minutiae involved tasks I can't imagine attempting to sort them by favourites. Lots of great stuff here of course, and not far off my own tastes. I know it's your personal preference, but I couldn't believe how low Grotesque was, I think it'd be in my top 25 personally!

List has been updated a few times recetly with small updates, now with a massive 10 deck update!

I know its just a ten dollar deck you can pick up at Target but seeing T11's Provision deck on there was a well deserved addition. I bought it and am super impressed. It's beautiful and affordable. They did a great job with that deck.

I recently got a Provision and had the same thought! I wasn't too impressed at first but in person it's very nice - I think it's my second-favorite TXI deck, after High Victorian

Updated with Conquerors, Order, Damask, Trick or Treat, Luminosity and Pekelna Horugva by Vladislav Erko.

Hoping to receive the Pinocchio decks by Passione and Surrealist by Salvador Dalí soon, both will be on this list for sure. Also waiting on a Lady Moon deck and a Standards deck from Art of Play, both having a good chance of ending on this list, need to see them up close to know for sure.

Some re-thinking done to the list
