I didnt realize he'd be using USPCC and their metallic inks for these. Its been a long while since he's done that. In for these for sure because of that alone. Metallic ink usually sucks, but USPCC somehow makes them awesome and Gio's metallic ink decks with them are some of my favorites.

Another very Thirdway Industries project by TWI.
Nothing new under the sun here, maybe except for the addition of AI now used for the presentations.

When it is Pantone Metallic Ink, you bet it will actually be metallic!
All of TWI decks that printed by USPCC that has metallic ink, they do shine for real!

But you can’t deny how killer the renders are!

Yes, I'm afraid Gio's very distinct style has made his decks "same old, same old" for me. I have a couple that I love but I would not be surprised if that is how it stays

[friscards]

The tucks look splendid together with an amazing design made me back these one. Top quality as expected with anything made by Gio!

A huge THANK YOU to all UC Backers that decided to pledge for Celestial, I am very happy with the support on this one.
The campaign is closed, EBs are gone but late pledges are available.

Will do my best to make Celestial decks awesome - hopefully I'll be able to show more prototypes of the boxes and the cards soon!

I just got an email about the project. It says technically archons should not be for sale but their is a late pledge..... bahahajahahaha

Have you read the email?

Archons is NOT available for late pledge (only certain tiers of Celestial are).
I've just extended the chance to subscribe Patreon now and integrate April+May to be eligible for Archons.

As you can imagine, I don’t appreciate seeing wrong information shared, especially when the goal is making fun (?) of what I do.

My Patreon is super complex already, the last thing I need is having wrong info that would confuse the new Patrons further

Late pledge TO Celestials, added
The email is loud and clear that you and others can do late pledge to get Celestial Playing Cards since the funding period is over.

And this is on the bottom part of the e-meail:

Technically, Archons should no longer be available — but due to several requests from Celestial backers, I’ve decided to extend the opportunity to integrate April and May for all new June Patreon subscribers.

This basically means: IF you want Archons, Gio gives you the second chance to join his Patreon, integrated the months since this deck firstly introduced, and then you secure these Patreon exclusive decks.

SURPRISE!

More three new decks added to the series: Noesis and Valor are the "Players Edition" of Fulgida and Sophia. Ira Dei is another Limited Edition

[Evilgamer]

filling in a few blanks, the two "player editions" are the usual use of the overrun/required minimums run at USPCC in a new tuck. The other edition...DOES seem to be something new, it's the same cards as the current limited but with different metal?

Link to buy was sent specifically as "do not share" so I will not repost it.

It's like what happened with "The Gentleman Thief", where the bronze and green have their own respective "Players Edition". But it's kinda a good thing - you can leave the one with the fancy tuck closed, and the classic tuck opened.

I believe Irae Dae have the same artworks, yet the cards uses gold foil for the artworks and gilding. And the back of Irae Dae has black background. Ira Dae is 20 decks lesser than Amor Dei.

[Thirdway Industries]

Hello UC! Thanks for posting, and also a big thank you for not sharing the link for the Backers preorder, that helps!

I confirm the Players Edition are the usual USPCC overrun with the simple tuck box printed with metallic ink. Ira Dei is a "new" deck - same artwork of Amor Dei, but different foil color (front and back, holosilver vs warm gold), different gilding and different box. A significant change is that Ira Dei back is Black.

Backers should already know everything (if not, check my last update, backers only) - Non-backers can get these as Kickstarter late pledge, I've added the tiers! > https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/th ... ying-cards

Decks and other stuff arrived today. Amazing stuff. I got a hex set along with the booklet and coin.
