Launching in September.

Looks great but apart from Luminosity and Stone Garden Jody never managed to lure me into a purchase. He's always a nuance away from a must have for me.

Much the same for me, although I did go for a Luminosity deck (and it's a survivor of my recent purge).

This looks sooooooo good!

I too am looking forward to this.
This may be a minority opinion, but I prefer Jody's decks (DOMINION, LEGIONARY) to not use foils. I hope this one has a foil-less option as well.
(Oh, and by foil I mean the face side; I really like the UMBRA NOIR back.)

I enjoy his signature series... Together they form a nice historical view of some of the great individuals of the past: Innovation (2015) including the blue edition with the special custom case (2017), Inception (2016), Devastation (2016) including the Silver Edition in the wooden case (2018), the Titans Robber Baron (2017),
and Top Aces which I don't have yet. I also thought the Kracken Signature Set is beautiful and Dominion.

Can't wait for Eminence, may be my favorite or the 52PlusJoker deck. The art for Forged looks ok for now.

Hey guys, thanks for starting the conversation about our upcoming project. I think you'll really like what we've put together. We're aiming to start sharing more about the project in the next week or so as the final touches are put on the artwork and campaign. In the meantime, I went ahead and activated our Kickstarter page so you can follow and be notified when we launch. I hope to see you there and let me know if you have any questions.

Thanks,
Chris

Thought I'd respond to let you know there will be a foil-less version (STD) and a cold-foil version of the cards. The cold foil version will have cold foil on the front and back of the cards, but the artwork is so good both versions will look great in the end. They both will be available when we launch too, so you can pick the one(s) you want from the start.

Let me know if you have any other questions!

I prefer it without foil for painted pictures like LUMINOSITY, but with this design, I think it would be better with foil. Either way, I am looking forward to it.

Would love to get this, BUT… decided not too after a botched experience in Jolly Kraken and hearing horror stories of the recent Eminence

I was one of those that has been disappointed by Eklund decks but I don't think I've learned my lesson as I'm still hopeful and will likely back this one.

Arrrgh, I almost love this but all the drop shadow effects pull me right out. There are more elegant ways to give depth to design. Love Dominion and really want to support Jody, so it will come down to what's offered.

Got my cold foil deck, metal card, and coin today. I gotta say, these are REALLY nice! The coin and metal card are some of the beefiest and well done that I have seen, and the cards are very nice! This is my favorite of Jody’s decks that I own and the metal goodies are also some of my favorites.

Deck didn't speak to me but boy oh boy do I love that coin and metal card!

I had been disappointed with a couple recent Jody offerings ( Eminence, Legionary) but this one turned out really nice. One of the better decks he's done.
