[NEW] JAQK Cellars in Black (BLACKJAQK) by theory11

[speedyy400]

A definite buy for me. Pretty excited to add to my blue and red decks.

Great fan of the Jaqk series. But after the beautiful 2nd version, the red one, with one of the most beautiful tuck boxes ever, I'm curious to see this version (don't want to raise my expectations too much).

The red would be the 3rd version. 
1st was a blue 1-way with no cello and custom red & gold seals.
2nd was the blue 2-way we know and love, with cello and no seal.

So this is now the 4th incarnation of an excellent design. One of the few that I don't ever mind a re-color/re-release.

Stop the Press: "super limited"

Stop the Press: "super limited"

My guess would be 'super limited' due to it maybe being a tier incentive - spend $125 or more and receive a free deck. Not sure though; time will tell

Most likely.

For some reason I felt better about buying a brick of Brown Rounders to get a Blue. Maybe that's because I wanted Brown Rounders. I don't want to buy $50-$100 of magic product. I don't want to buy $50-$100 of decks I already have or don't want. I don't think the other 3 products are decks of playing cards. What to do, what to do?

[MrMollusk]

Damn damn damn damn damn.

This means I'll be spending part of Black Friday trying to snatch one up. Any news on the other three releases?

There's an effect but other than that no info. Hoping to see another deck and some good savings.

Amen to that. I could use some T11 decks at a cheap price.

Well, that's if you count the winery versions.  I think they actually have the same deck now (version 1) in two different colors, whereas before it was the same deck with two different-colored deck seals.  Could THAT be version four?    Then this would be version FIVE!

Kidding aside, if you base it strictly on T11 releases, the forthcoming black is version three - or simply the third color.  I'm not even sure if T11 had a hand in the original design, or if they simply tweaked the deck the winery was already selling.  They have images of the original winery edition on the USPC web pages for ordering custom decks - I remember seeing them there first before seeing them anywhere else, and it was certainly before the T11 release by some months.

New quote, more info.

Including one other unlimited new deck of cards!

j.bayme: Yep! BlackJAQK is super limited edition, but the other three releases on Black Friday are not - including one other new deck of cards!

[Joker and the Thief]

Theory11 released another teaser today for another effect.
That's then pretty much the four Black Friday products.
We get 2 effects and 2 decks; unknown unlimited and BlackJaqk.

[Card Player]

If the second deck is something I want,  I would have no problem buying a brick, spending $50 to get one or spending $100 to get two. At this point I have a feeling theory11 (T11) is saving the second deck teaser for a reason. The second deck could be a bigger surprise then the BLACKJAQK.

During the year I've had brief email discussions with T11 support regarding particular decks they produce. As Don Boyer always tells me, why am I writing it on the forum and email the company. I let T11 know about a few things I would like to see. They responded... From what they wrote, I got the feeling they were already working on something with regard to particular deck(s) I mentioned to them. Maybe the second deck is what they were already working on?

Strange they have not teased the "second deck" yet and that's probably because we are very familiar with it already.

So, last night theory11 (T11) had there weekly Saturday Night Contest (SNC). The prize was a SIX PACK of BlackJAQK Playing Cards, shipped out on Monday - a week before the public release!

Although these are considered "super limited" by T11 standards, BLACKJAQKS will be available for normal purchase. NOT a TIER. I looked back at most of the SNC's past prizes, and T11 does not just give away a SIX PACK of rare deck's used as tiers (white monarchs, Rarebit). Most likely BLACKJAQKS will be as limited as the RED JAQKS were and those took about a week or two to sell out. That's great news for all of us. Most of us who want them will get them.

That's good to hear. I'm guessing maybe 2500-5000 decks plus some they'll hold in reserve for The Archive for Elite points and future giveaways. I'm really curious as to what the other deck is since there's no tease or anything about it yet. I'm wondering if it's a reprint of the Bee Stingers or maybe titanium version of Robocycle, something that's less important/hype-worthy.

On the contrary - new Stingers would be hype-worthy!  They're one of my favorite decks.  Titanium Robocycles, on the other hand...

I'm guessing since they drop the info that there is two decks going to be released on Black Friday, they'd probably drop teasers and hints this week on it. I still think that the Black JAQK is the big special deck and the other deck they're releasing isn't as big since they spent a good 2-3 weeks teasing about Black JAQK.

I think it will be an unlimited release as opposed to the limited Black JAQKs - but the fact that they're saying NOTHING about it is interesting, especially since they rarely just drop a release with almost no heads-up.

It's definitely unlimited as confirmed Jonathan Bayme on the Theory11 instagram page and then throw in the comment on the Decoy tease, it's an unlimited deck for sure. I'm still curious as to what it is, I still think it'd be a releasing of an older deck or a re-colour of something. I honestly can't imagine it be a completely new designed deck though I'd be happy to be wrong.

Mine too, really hope they bring them back. Not sure if they will ever feel the same again though

Now I remember an exposé, God must be getting on a year ago now, released just after the Rebels. Andrei said that Rebels might be getting a splash of colour (particularly red). Now the Rebel deck is out of stock on T11 so could they make a comeback in red and black? Also theory11 was saying that they were working on a deck that would be different to anything they ever made. Who knows but I'm betting on those two.

[BiggerDee]

Ok, whose turn is to complain and gripe about "yet another re-color"? :-)

Looking forward to these!

[AtomSmash]

Does anyone have any idea how much they're going to be?

They look pretty awesome but I don't want to pay >$100.00 for a recolour.

When has T11 ever charged a king's ransom for even their rarest for-sale decks...?  I can't remember them ever doing that.

I'm taking an educated guess based on most recent theory11 deck prices.

Starting at $6.95 a deck.

@ Don

I was hoping one of these companies would just email their mailing list early for a pre sale. I've got so much shit to do Thursday and Friday. Plus other people to buy for. I just want to get the order done with.
