I dream of a world where wars are fought only by having dance offs. I also dream that a Finnish playing card designer would exist. The former seems more likely to happend.

Re: Ascension Playing Cards
I did a double-take with this one. I didn't notice the title lacked "Volume II" so I naturally assumed this was the existing Steve Minty thread. Boy was I wrong.
This reminds me of how they release knock-off movies for Red Box just before a big-name movie is available. For example, there might be an option to rent "The Avenged" and someone who isn't paying attention might get excited and think they scored a copy of Avengers early, only to find out they rented a B-level shit show.
Anyway, this feels like a sneaky move to pick off unsuspecting collectors who think they are getting a good deal on "Ascension" playing cards. These cards don't make any part of my body want to ascend, if you know what I mean...
(well, maybe my middle finger)

Re: Ascension Playing Cards
I think it's just that most other decks have already been posted here, so whenever MM makes a new thread it's usually for a deck that hasn't already gotten attention here for whatever reasonOVSUB wrote:Why the hell is almost every new thread involving Murphy's Magic a shite deck(At least since I've joined)?
