Emmanuel Jose's 5th Deck - Name of the Game (Coming in 2016?)

[ecNate]

Teased on Facebook earlier today, this will be his 5th deck with title "Name of the Game".  Obviously won't be up on Kickstarter for about a year since he just started the creation and Delicious will be the next one to be posted.  Still, I'm pretty excited about this one, but he needs to STOP - I only have 5 spots on my main uncut hallway and this means he will have claimed them all.  I am running out of places for the others.

Name of the Game is my 5th deck, and it's all about sports. Here's the first card.
Year 5, Week 1: The Ace of Spades

I love Emmanuel's work!

Yeah, he always has a unique way of looking at things. I wonder what kind of sports he's planning on including in this deck. For example will he include games like cricket or bowling? Less "main stream" sports?

Also, just for the record, what are his other 4 decks?

Curator, Clipped Wings, and Sawdust have all been produced. Delicious will be a KS project(I assume) sometime this year.

He is the Master of thin borders and semi-transformation decks.  He knows what he can get away with at the USPCC.

I know that he's gotten his pace up since the first deck, when he was making a card per week.  If he gets this up and running soon enough, he might be able to time the Kickstarter project if not actual retail sales with the 2016 Olympics!  It's about a year-and-a-half away now, should be ample time.

His work is not just great - it was really ground-breaking when he first introduced it and remains impressive today.  No artist has even tried to mimic his style or method, to the best of my knowledge.  Perhaps they respect it too much!

[Emmanuel]

Thank you so much, everyone!

10ofclubs, I certainly plan to include some less mainstream sports in the deck

I've been prepping my Sawdust art show, which will take place this Thursday night at the Big Apple Circus in NYC. If you're in the area, let me know if you'd like to be invited!

To the people who have already RSVPed, I can't wait to meet you!

@Emmanuel - You have to try to come to the next 52+ Joker convention. I know you would be a big hit.  I would like to give you a deck of my cards.  I'll be giving one to Don and Lee.  And I'll buy 2 decks of your Delicious if you show up...
