Favorite Deck?

[TigerKnee]

Watermelons.  By far my favorite deck.

[phantom1412]

My best guess at total decks owned would be over nine hundred.

Whoaaa, that's awesome.
Wanna see pics of your collections.

No it seemed fine to me!! It was incredible, but it really wasn't that bad. Overall I really really like the deck. The box is amazing, the backs are awesome and the cards are good! I would suggest trying to snag some before the price gets any higher.

I agree with brown_baggs, get them while they're not gold arcanes or red artfices yet!

@Don - How can you be collecting for a bit more than a year and have almost 900 decks? That's almost 3 per day. I'm happy if I get 3 per month! Will you be able to post a video of your collection? I like them better than pictures.
Anyways, I am getting some black crowns.

Yeah they are already priced pretty high, and I expect that these will only go up in value. It's a very nice deck and I'm really glad that I got a chance to add some to my collection!! I would pick up at least two if I didn't have some already.

That is actually a really good question!! I have been collecting for almost twice that time and I don't have nearly that many. Granted I don't buy every deck that comes out right away and I don't make many huge orders. That's an insane rate of growth for a collection!  I wouldn't mind seeing a video either.

I've heard people say they hated the crown decks, but loved some other deck that happened to have the same stock and finish. People need to realize that more often than not, a deck that doesn't fan is a defective deck.

Anyway, in terms of design my favorite would have to be Artifice, but I've been using my Aristocrats a lot lately because I just LOVE the stock. I can't wait to get my style decks to have an idea of what it's like with magic finish.

Yes, I think you are right, Moon. I also checked out CardsRFun's review for more info and it seems like he has had the same issue. And I have also had it with my green crowns v2.

Yeah, you should see my credit card bills...    This doesn't count ANY of my magic/gaff decks.  That might push the collection over a thousand.


At first I convinced myself it was a necessity for a magician - my first magic order was for some cards and DVDs from E.  It didn't take long to realize I was as enamored of the decks as I was of the magic.  I'd always love playing cards as a kid - they fit in your pocket, you can play games by yourself or with others, do tricks with them, and they're mostly pretty cheap.  My grandfather was an inveterate card player, so I think I got the bug from him.


I'll see about doing a video.  No guarantees.  I'm a bit under the weather now.

Wow. Everything you say surprises me even more! My grandpa is also a card player. He plays a french game called Belote whenever he can. He even invented a 2-player version so he can play with me or my grand-ma. However he never buys new decks: his newest one was offered by a friend of his before the Algerian War (over 50 years ago!) and they club up so much its indescribable. I went and saw him for Christmas and bought him a brick of standard bikes and about 10 T11 decks. I didn't give him more because he isn't too fan of the american court cards (q for queen, k for king, A for ace): he's used to the french way (d for queen, r for king, 1 for ace, v for jack etc) and also he doesn't like the fact that there are indexes only on 2 of the 4 corners!

My favorite deck is now probably either my Vietnam Aces deck or S&M V6

[BLUSH].  Dude... 

[chdmagicdude]

i like the dan and dave fantastique

[Frost]

my favorite deck is the artifice deck .

[Paul Carpenter]

I think my favorite deck (not of my own design) is an even split between Fantastique and Artifice. I love the back design and use of metallics on Fantastique, but the full custom nature of Artifice is excellent as well.

[LeonJL]

Mine would be either Artifice or Infinity
