I'm very much liking this deck.

The thing is, though, he's already got a few decks in the pipeline, doesn't he?  He never completed the Green Dragon and White Tiger decks.  I'm starting to doubt that he will.

  • Ugh, I wish I had money for THAT deck!
Hmm I was actually a fan of the Takefu deck and these look good as well. I haven't seen his other stuff to be honest so I have nothing to say about those. I can only hope these get made.

I'm getting a little confused... I could imagine the cards from the pictures would be a prototype deck, but I found this picture on my Facebook from a guy called Kete Moon. Are these cards printed or not?

Kete Moon is a well-known collector based in Taiwan.  His photos are usually taken by him of his own decks, so I'm thinking a) it's genuine and b) it's either in release or close to it.  He does occasionally get advance copies of decks.  I would say to check out his blog over at youthwant.tw but it's all in what I assume is Mandarin - Google Translate will NOT help in this case, despite its claim of Mandarin being one of its languages; it mostly chokes on Asian languages.

Eric, first, allow me to say welcome to the Discourse!  It's always great to have another deck designer stopping by to say hello.  If you have a moment, please create an "Introduce Yourself" topic, and feel free to stop in anytime and chat on any of our topic boards.

Second, speaking personally, I can see your work has grown dramatically.  I wasn't a big fan of the earlier stuff, but the more new decks I'm seeing from you, the more I like.  This is no exception.  I just wish some of your work was more broadly available - it's not easy to track down!

I have to think that this deck was printed
http://www.magicshop.co.uk/PLAYING_CARDS/c37/p142115/The_Butterfly_Deck_-_Bicycle_Playing_Cards/product_info.html

Thanks for the link. It probably already is printed. Recent memory brings to mind his Takefu deck that suddenly were being sold on eBay. I have no guesses to why there is no news or announcement of these decks being printed or sold but I am curious.

My guess is that the decks were intended for distribution primarily where he lives, similar to the Truth Garden decks.
