Not usually sold on the tuck alone, but wow, so in for this. So what are people's favourite colour? I'm going to have to go with that blue!

I'm going to have no choice but to opt out of another high profile KS campaign, because I can't pass on this deck.

The Legends Classic finish AND a borderless design... nope, no way I can pass!!

Absolutely love the back design -- really nice use of vivid colours. Awesome.
With this signature I'm following the example set by Fes: There is only ONE letter L in my display name. "Holly" is a female name... and I'm a bearded guy who's into weightlifting. There's nothing feminine about me brother!

I don't post on here too often, but I feel like I need to on this one. I love everything about this project. The colors are gorgeous and vibrant yet super playable! Also, I love that the decks you see at the beginning of the project are the ones you get. No secret rare re-coloring. I'm trying to hold off on purchasing new cards, but I will definitely be supporting you early tomorrow. Excellent job on this project!

For any non-Backers of the Draconian project, here's a look at the Coin prototype. CFA is working on a lot of changes to get the details to look right on the Dragon Head side, but the Scales side looks and feels sweet!

Randy,

With your current KS promotion, would it be TOO jerky to 'refer' two of my other KS accounts?

Nah, that's fine! As Long as you don't decrease your original pledge, it's still eligible.

Thanks, Randy

If you did I would have snatched it and added a pair. 8)  lol, I'm making the rounds and hitting the forums.

On Friday I modified my pledge for 12 decks to 26 decks... because I like them that much brother!

Randy has said that there'll be no more recolours or reprints, which is fair enough... but in time, that'll probably make people kick themselves for not getting more of these, once they see the deck reviews on YouTube. The way the tuck box has been described, it sounds like it's going to be really awesome -- better than what the rendered images show.

I really like what Randy has done with the courts -- I think he's the best when it comes to adding a twist to traditional courts.

The price point for these decks makes it a pretty awesome deal -- chances are that the price will be $15 and upwards when they start appearing on eBay.

I'm buying the decks purely for personal use, and to add to my collection, rather than resale. Chances are that when I run out, I'll be kicking myself for not (somehow!) being able to get a 3rd brick... but then again, I've pledged for as much as my monthly budget allows me to :D

I'm glad to hear the you control your hobby, rather than the other way around!

I agree that it's a very attractive design - I've backed for a few myself.  This is one of those designs that I wish would see repeated printings, 'cause it looks exceptionally playable as well as being great for magic and cardistry.

Friendly reminder time! Rapidly approaching the final 24 hours, 27 left as I type this.

A couple EB pledge slots opened up for a pair of these. Seriously though, all the pledge slots are sweet. By the very nature of these decks, they will be limited. By the nature of the art on these decks and crazy cool tucks, they will be sought after. Randy is one of those designers that even if something is amazing looking in a render, it's better in real life. Sure it's a subjective thing to say, I feel like a LOT of people would agree with me on that statement.

While I've already chewed through my hobby budget for this month, last month. I'm thinking I may not need to go to the hockey game haha, yea I'm thinking up ways to get another brick. Incidentally, this is the only current campaign that I am already in for multiple bricks.

Try not to miss out. You'll probably be kicking yourself later if you do. :)

Now why would we do that when we can kick you and take yours?  :))

This is an excellent deck, and if I'm not mistaken it's Randy's first borderless design.

Thanks Don and Fes!!

Just 1 Hour left! After today it switches into full-out Production Mode (which shouldn't be hard since all of the Print Files are at the Printer).

thanks, Randy

I'm excited to get these decks.  One of my favorites this year, so far.  I hope they come with a tough, thick tuckbox (ala LUXX).  I want to use these decks regularly for card games.
