This is my first time making a video deck review.....

I would appreciate any feedback or suggestions!

Nice! Maybe a little more on handling for this deck ( Giant fan ?) great review !

Thanks for the feedback. My giant fan stinks.... so I'll try to work on getting it presentable and then I could incorporate it into my next video.

Anybody else kinda disappointed that the Fathom decks don't have any embossing on the tuck box? Almost came off as very ordinary from the "luxury" deck stand point. Don't get me wrong, the artwork is beautiful on the cards, but the box compared to say Sultan Republic or Monarchs is just plain regular...

Hmm... to tell you the truth I didn't even think about it. I don't care too much about the box because I figure the spectator wouldn't even be looking at it too much compared with the actual cards themselves. But, yeah, I suppose the box would have been a little nicer with some embossing.

But, I really (really) like that the "standard" cards (2-10) have a custom design on them.... so they don't look just like normal bicycle cards. The entire deck is custom. At least one of the pips on every standard card has some kind of bubbles pattern applied to it. Looks asymmetrical, which I like. Kind of like a graphic tee shirt that has a design down the left side might look cooler than if it were perfectly centered in the middle.

Indeed . Maybe it should be embossed on the front "triangle" and a bit on the back . And the cards sadly , one way back
