I just watched CardsRFun and deckreviews top ten cards video, and oddly enough their list are sort of different but sort of similar somehow  :o , and now im curious, what is your top ten?  I kind of want to know alex's top 10 as well.
 
It's a new year and it should be fun to go back on this thread at 2013 and see how much your list changed  ;)
 
Mine is as of 1/1/2012
Midnight blades, DeckOne, Guardians, Sentinels, Arcane, Artifice V1, White Lions, Black Ghost, Shadow Masters, and finally 1800 bicycle series decks

Today I found something that reminded me of you. But don't worry I flushed and everything went back to normal.

  • Pick a card, any card...no, not THAT card!

  • Facebook:
I'd have a really tough time with this kind of list.  It's hard for me to pick favorites like that.  I could list some that are among my most liked...

In no particular order - and forgive me if they aren't all this year's releases:

Arcane (all three versions)
Artifice (version 2)
all David Blaine decks
Tally Ho circle back
Bicycle Clot Ltd. Ed.
Play Me Burlesque
Bicycle Guardians
Karnival Dead Eyes
Karnival Dose
Bicycle Premier
Aristocrat Banknotes
Sentinels
Infinity
D&D strippers
Arrcos (all)
Crown Decks (all)
Bicycle Medicom Be@rbrick
DeckONE
Bee Stingers (black and red)
Pro Bicycles (air cushion - the ivory finish decks freak me out a little!)
Bicycle 1800 (red with performance coating)
Bicycle Enigma (I love the card back)
Bicycle Dragon Back (all)

...and that's all I can think of off the top of my head.

I look at that list, realize it's long - and simultaneously realize that it's just a fraction of my collection...  And I've only been collecting for a YEAR...  I need to give my debit card a vacation.

Yeah, it's cool, though kinda expensive.  I think I paid $20 a pack.  Not easy to find, either - pretty much the website and the Museum of Sex in Manhattan are the only two places.  My only gripe is that the typeface used for the girls' names on the cards is very hard to read at that size.
