This looks pretty good. Something uncommon. Only thing that puts me on the fence is the mess of words on the center of the backs. I get what he's doing, but it detracts rather than add to the design for me.

Got cancelled because the "Illuminati Diamond" ambigram (Earth/Air/Fire/Water) is copyrighted by John Langdon

Yikes, that's an exact copy! Let's see what happens. Thanks for the headsup

the creator could certainly just remove the design from the back and it would probably be better anyway. i have these saved as i like them and would probably pick up a white one.

I messaged the creator about this, but they have yet to respond.

The etsy shop link seems to be selling "Bloodbourne" Cards, which was the same designer of a "Witcher" cards project which then got flagged for copyright issues and removed. I kinda like em but dk if another copyright issue is coming in the near future, cross fingers. Also just remove the ambigram tbh it's not really fitting.

So this is the reply I get from the creator when I told him about that copyright issue. He replied 10 days ago with nothing done about it since then. Looks like he's not taking it seriously. I've sent John Langdon the KS link via his website. Let's see what happens next.

Looking through the campaign in more detail, he lists his Etsy page to show decks he's previously done. One of the previous ones was a deck based on the game Bloodborne that he did without a license. He also attempted a Witcher deck that got canceled. So he just might not care at all. His Kickstarter account was max_power_entertainment for those, not sure why he changed it for this one. Looking at the Bloodborne campaign, there are a lot of complaints of people not receiving decks, so that's probably why he changed it.

The deck design alone would make me don't touch this campaign with a ten feet stick. Changed names and questionable feedback in previous campaigns are the definite nail in the coffin.
