This is a very, very nice deck I seriously recommend picking a couple of these up at Theory for 4.95

I heard you say you opened the deck to do the review. I would personally break in the deck first if you are going to review it, that way we get an idea how it will handle in the future and not just out of the box. IMO

what do you mean by IMO? but great review and i agree with john

oh okay, thanks

Ok, I'll try that for the next review.

I agree as well. I personally break in and test decks in detail, and in case I have two of them I use the new one just for in the video review to show what the deck actually looks like, rather than me showing an old and dirty due to usage-looking deck. But out-of-the-box reviews cannot be trusted as for decks' handlings.

Also, your reviews are very good but I think that before you do your next review, you should learn more about cards

Ok, and I usually play with the cards for about 5 minutes before I do the review but as you see in most of the spreads you can tell they still need to be broken in more.

not about how they feel. I mean, more about cards in general... how they're made, whats on them, stocks, finishes. And you should expand your vocal a bit ;)

Ik not how they feel I was just putting that out there. I will do all of this stuff before my next review and I will try to use more words instead of the same phrase all the time. I have noticed this and my friend has also told me. I will also try to be more clear and louder.

I am just wondering if the old aristocrat banknotes (not the t11 reprint) look exactly the same. Maybe someone can do a comparison with it.

From why I've heard, I'm 95% sure that they are the exact same.

I just got my Theory11 Black Friday package and I had 1 red and 1 blue decks of these in it and I also think they are a great deck and very smooth and high quality.

I agree with you in theory, but with these cards, they're practically pre-broken-in. Soft stock out of the box, no break in period. I've been using them for months and I love them.

These are reprints, but they're not T11 reprints. These are USPC reprints, T11 is just another reseller in a long list of them.

i would say the banknotes are my favorite deck.

My favorite "non-specialty" deck is the Tally-Ho.
These are probably my favorite "elegant specialty" deck, which to me includes decks with minimally altered basic deck design.
For "out-there specialty", I like the Sentinels design, but the White Arcane has them beat in quality.
Honorable mention goes to my new "workhorse" deck that's always in my pocket, Guardians.
But seriously, nearly every deck I own has something about it that drew me to it in the first place, so yeah, they all have a soft spot in my heart. (Cue sappy violin music...)
::)

at first for me the banknotes were way to slick because i only do cardistry. A few weeks of use though, with proper care of the cards, they stayed smooth but had some cling. this could have been because the finish wore down a bit, but whatever it was a like.
I actually almost made a 75$ purchase at E today to get the RA deck, but then i thought i could just save up and then spend that money on a brick of aristocrats.

The Banknotes will hold up better in the long run - no nicked black edges!
