Magic Tricks

Overview (5/5)

A bit of backstory--I often have 4-5 decks of cards in my bag at work and rotate them in and out in a pseudo "king of the hill" style contest: weekend to weekend the two decks people seem most interested in (based on unprompted comments about them, as well as letting them choose what deck I use) make it to the next weekend, and the others go back to the shelf (or more realistically, scattered around my desk).

Since I got these cards in early November, they made it back into my bag every week; beating out even avengers/other themed theory 11 decks, which lasted all summer.

Design: (5/5)

Both the box and the cards have the same cool design elements (red foil and general aesthetic, which is a nice change compared to some decks where the box is way more decorative than the cards), while still being very readable.

Handling and Extras: (5/5)

The paper, printing, and coating are all top-notch. They spread well, and handle springs, fans, and the other paltry cardistry I can do. Even after a couple weeks of use, there isn't much change in how they've functioned. It includes a double backer, and blank card, which is always a benefit. Notably, the design seems better than most for doing fans that show the deck as entirely blank.

Verdict:

If you collect cards, whether to use them or not, this deck doesn't disappoint!
