Ellusionist Ignite playing cards

[Fred]

Can I get a tl;dr on the controversy?

Me: Ignite original release date: 9/11, twin tower shit. Fathom original release date: the day a cruise ship collided with an iceberg and sank.  CONNECZIONNN? OOOOOOO E IZ ILLUMINATI!!@!11                  E, DO U EVEN SYMBORISMMM?/

Ellusionist: wat, no. k.

[Fred]

Courts. Wow, absolutely stunning. Definitely not left disappointed!

[KPopFever605]

Wonder why they decided to add squares to the adjacent corners of the cards. Don't think I've seen that before.

You sure? They did that with the Fathom deck. 



Love those courts!

[Fred]

Oh wow i never even got to the courts of Fathom cos i couldnt get pass its back design! They are gorgeous! Looks to be a promising series by Ellusionist! Can anyone in Black club confirm whether the deck will be limited/unlimited? Cheers.

Nowhere it says limited.

Huh. Didn't notice those at first. Cool.

[Michael]

Fathoms were not limited so I assume these aren't. But seeing that the courts seem to have a theme is nice since the Fathom courts were decent. "Origin Series" has a nice ring to it to me. Looking forward to the earth and wind based decks!

Official release 12th September 4pm EST!

Edit: Now available!

As for the name, they could continue with the "measurement" theme, and call this deck Centigrade, or Fahrenheit, or whatnot.

I doubt it.  What would they use for earth and air?  Pounds?  Tons?  Kilos?  Cubic Centimeters?

They could go with 'Pascal' or 'Newton' for Earth, which would not only be using a measure used when determining how strong the material is, i.e. how many kilo-Newtons it takes to break, but also paying homage to a scientist, who I feel never get as much good publicity as they should sometimes.

As for Air, 'Bar' is a good name.

Though, the scientifically-minded may have realised that in both cases the units used as for pressure/weight, so who knows?

Ladies and gentlemen - Ronyo Faukx, professional straight man!  Will take any joke and make a dead-serious reply to it... 

(Just havin' fun with the new guy - it means we like you...)

But your still not an official member. You have to wait till Don writes 3 paragraphs in response to your post. Ask him something small. He will talk forever about it. He really is an old guy.

Hey, I'm not old until I fart dust...  But I am long-winded.  That I can't deny.

[Collector]

Can someone explain me why the King of Hearts has two left hands in both decks?

Don, at our age. I don't think it's dust we need to worry about.

The courts are derived from the Infinity deck, it is the same there. I guess no one noticed it before it was printed, and then they probably just stuck with it for these two decks.

I don't have the Fathom or Ignite decks, could you post a picture?

I haven't opened my Fathom but I saw someone show the king of hearts from both decks back on page three. This is the king of hearts from Infinity for comparison.

That's... interesting. I NEVER would have guess they were the same

[Michael]

I don't think I ever noticed the two left hands. I actually like it even if it's a little unconventional.

[CoCoN_16]

I'm definitely gonna buy this deck. Do anybody know any other cool decks with fire theme?

[Ben Taylor]

The only two I can think of are the Transducer and Asura decks.

[CoCoN_16]

Transducer, Asura... I like both of them. I have Asura and I recently wanted to buy Transducer, but actual prize is over $20 - it doesn't worth it in my opinion.

Yeah, nice decks, but none of them has fire theme. You can barely find any flames on them

First, welcome to the boards.  You should make an "Introduce Yourself" topic sometime and get to know the gang.

How about the Bicycle Karnival Inferno?  It's more of a devil-themed deck but it has plenty of flame-y images on it.  That's all I can think of off the top of my head.

And that's my problem. I'm too professional and straight for the market to hire.

Interviews revolve around them asking questions, which I give straight answers to, as opposed to the standard 2 shovelfuls of BS they've come to expect. Instead, they hire the BS-artist with the charisma of a fluffy kitten, and all the business/industry knowledge of a baked potato.

Makes me mad!
