Looks like your typical Theory 11 deck - a nice tuck but somewhat disappointing classic courts and pips.

Well, classic courts and pips make it very playable. I don't hate the "classics" expecially if they have a subtle, stilish twist.

double agree

Now while I can also understand how an amazing tuck, back design and concept may seem like a waste on a deck with only standard courts, I think the affordability Theory11 is able to offer with blinged out decks like this one is really great for those collectors that still want to have something special to use for regular game play. And of all the Theory11 decks, this one I'm actually really diggin' - that teal and gold color combo are working really nicely together :)

Don't get me wrong - I am not trying to belittle the deck. It is just that most of Theory11 tucks are really impressive (and the overall print quality is excellent) and then you look at the courts and they are sort of average... That said, as far as affordable decks go, they are one of the best.

As for other T11 decks that are interesting, the two High Victorian decks (green and red) are my favourites.

USD10 affordable? I suppose what with KS decks now in the USD15 category. Still it would have been nice if they had recoloured/tweaked the courts to match the teal and gold or theme, like they did with some of their other decks. Medallions and Tycoons come to mind. I think the Monarchs had the court colours changed.

I think $10 for a beautiful tuck, nice back design and aces, with standard courts is fine. Better than a lot of crap people are pledging for, as Eric says, $15 on Kickstarter for.

Apologies, it's the lighting, the teal color is pretty pronounced

Haha, I was like why has the white/light grey tuck the same cards as the OG Hudson?
