I know a place that gives top dollar for plasma. You have to get one.
It is interesting that Lotrek has teamed up with a cardist for this deck.

Not quite. These will be printed by EPCC (Taiwan) and will be very affordable.macstrat wrote:I am going to be eating beans in a can for a month....Decknowledgy wrote:What's going onnnnnnnn?!!!!!
So you can either eat home cooked beans or you can add a small portion of bacon to your canned beans!

Re: "CHARMERS" playing cards by Lotrek and Kellar O' Neil
In a previous life, the South Carolina based magician Kellar O'Neil approached me and asked whether I was willing to design a deck for his shows and fans. I liked the style and ambiance of his show and I accepted. I said that I would do it soon. Poor Kellar had no idea what the word "soon" translates to in my case. Now, a few decades later we're close to launching the project and we're working on the final details. This is a deck intented for magic, therefore the courts are the standards redrawn by me. More pics soon

Re: "CHARMERS" playing cards by Lotrek and Kellar O' Neil
Kellar O’Neil goes by the name of “The Southern Charmer”. The symbol is his logo on his website that I assume he has had for some time.
And yeah, I thought the same thing until I researched it a bit more.

Extremely excited about the CHARMERS collaboration with Lotrek. The TSC is the monogram for The Southern Charmer. This logo work is all original design from a creation beginning in 2013. It is shown on my marketing materials, etc and we felt it would be nice to carry it through the design of this card deck.

Re: "CHARMERS" playing cards by Lotrek and Kellar O' Neil
Idk why I didn't put 2 and 2 together before, but my friend whose initials are TCS, has been using an identical logo since 2014 as his PSN username's avatar...
It's not particularly unique.
The back design could be okay as a "standard" deck. I'd have to see the faces and tuck box to provide full judgment. Just comparing it to something, like Arabesque Players Edition, it underwhelms. Yes, I understand that this is a collaboration, and not a 'bling' Lotrek deck.

Re: "CHARMERS" playing cards by Lotrek and Kellar O' Neil
The decks are going to be printed by EPCC with their Taiwan factory. I imagine that they want to make sure registration is good, while maintaning good handling. While I am sure we will get our chance at plenty of these cards, I imagine a good number of them (and primary reason for them being created in the first place) are going to Kellar O'Neil for his performances and those that attend his magic show. (TGW - note his "Parlour")

I'm under the impression that these threads often deviate from the appropriate degree of seriousness. I wonder who is to blame for that.

Just wanted to keep this thread alive.
Lotrek, any idea the time of the release? The webpage is suspended and not existing though... makes me wonder if the project is dead
