If you ain't first - you're last.

If you mean the initial release it was 30k decks.

Holy crap 30k?? I mean it's not a bad deck just can't believe that the demand is that high

Yup, that's what you get for having 2.4 million youtube subs. At least he's putting out as many as demanded by fans according to his v1s pre-orders and not creating hype by having overpriced recolours limited between 2.5k to 10k.

Chris is still putting out regular content while Zach has basically stopped except to hype his new releases. Which does explain why he's stuck at 90k.

Still, the hype Zach can get with minimal content and 90k subs is amazing. He sells out 10k while Chris can't sell out at 30k with more than 20x the subs. Gotta admire the brand marketing Zach's done.

Only 1057 available....this time....

30k is only a very small percentage of Ramsay 2.7 million subs. About .15 percent actually. In fact I’m surprised it’s Not much much bigger print count. Probably because the decks are simplistic.

Based how the main cardists can sell out their branded decks so fast, it seems that it is due to cardistry fanbases being more fanatical than magicians/collectors when it comes to buying cardist branded decks. Then again, cardistry is still very niche, so less decks to choose from compared to magic and custom decks.

It may also explains why there are so many cardistry deck projects on KS trying to be the next Fontaine.

Subscriber count means nothing but that a person did a click on a youtube button once. It is one small factor in a more complex equation.
