Blood Kings

[hecrob]

Already out for wholesalers...
No clear date for official release.

As cheap as the normal "black kings"

This deck and it's various incarnations are getting really dated, really quickly in my opinion. Hope there's something new on the horizon soon.

I may at some point toss one in with my order of something else but I'm not going to be actively seeking this one out even though I do enjoy my red decks. Some people really love the Kings decks and that's cool, for me even though the decks haven't been out that long, they're already long in the tooth. I prefer Rounders over Kings.

I really like the red, it's definitely a tired design, but if I were to pick one I liked best of what is available this would be the one.

I'm not too big a fan of recolour releases. Once upon a time I didn't mind, but not they're not something I get excited about.

Even the blue JAQK deck, in my opinion sucks. One or two recolours are okay... but when a third one happens it sucks.

This blood edition is, as far as I'm aware, the first recolour release featuring that particular design. It probably will appeal to all fans of the scarlett rounders that didn't manage to actually get that particular deck -- this may end up being the closest thing that they get to a red rounders, without having to sell a kidney to have the funds to purchase.

For me is just another deck from E. More blood, more DM decks...no offense, but is boring. Some copycat people are using this weapons in their logo. Kinda lol...nothing original. If tomorrow will be a some bows, maybe they will change their logo...kinda sad.

ps: oh, no, bows! Lets make another deck.

Well, about T11 Blue Jaqk, the old blue is like and old style paper, looks somehow vintage. Love it even I don't have it, only red and blacks, a lot. Also I don't have the new blue deck, but imho is just an extra deck in the Jaqk Cellars series.

What the hell happened to genuine originality?  Reprint after reprint after reprint...  The "majors" in the custom game seems to have lost any sense of creativity - but as long as people keep buying, they'll keep selling, so it's hard to fault them for it.  They're businesses, not charities.

No offense, but I saw in the last year so much bulls....even on KS. There are a lot of people with a lot of imagination and creativity and if they will be connected to this community maybe they can be directed in a good direction.

"New" people or kids are attracted by some guns, flame, nice flourishes, nice design, etc....maybe they are kings somewhere in their minds and believe that. Well, is not wrong to dream about it, but at some certain point you'll get foolish by this game, video clips, "cool" people, tattoo (I like tattoos), etc. I was too And yes, they will buy any playing cards of E. DM is some kind of hero for some people. Is like in the movies, I want to be like that bad/good guy. Indeed, E it must survive somehow, but.... Anyway, new designs will be welcome, even with DM. Why not?! Maybe is a nice guy even he is all the time with the beers in his pockets I will not marry him so he can be a bad guy too. Love the decks? Buy them. If not, why bother.
