I will say this- I like the back design.

A bit to simple with a center outside element that doesn't make sense.

Pretty much sums it up for me too. The faces leave something to be desired.

I cant put my finger on it, but the back design reminds me of something else ive seen somewhere before..

His Ambit deck hasn't even funded yet (and isn't going to) and he is already on to the next one - which was already cancelled once. Kid has some serious ADHD issues. It's almost like he doesn't want a successful project.

Kinda reminds of me of the russian folk art deck.

I was thinking the same thing, but then I looked at the RFA deck, and... it's actually quite different, yet it still evokes the same idea. if that makes any sense.

Wouldn't back these, at those low prices he's going to have some financial issues. He also seems to like offering freebies which is also a financial no-no. This could be another case of Russell Kercheval!

There's also a little bit of an evocation of the Blossom deck by Aloys.

But, that's not quite it, either. Hmmmm...

Honestly the russian folk art deck was the first deck that came to my mind, but same as allan, they turned out to be rather different. Then i thought of the erko deck that mike was promoting, its closer, but not quite it as well.
