I am brand new to this and I am blown away. I bought a bicycle cypher deck about a month ago in a local pharmacy and about a week ago bought a bee deck used in a golden nugget casino at another store. I had no idea how expansive this world is. I plan to start having poker nights and this kind of was an offshoot of that. Now im hooked and just started a pip box club sub lol. I like that you can get dups so you can keep one sealed. Im excited😄

Wow, loved those decks. I personally like this top 3: .- 1 King Hood .- 2 Constellations .- 3 Tale of the Tempest
@cedricdumaran50882 жыл бұрын
We have very similar tastes in those top 3! The biggest thing that got me into cards was the allure of having a more luxurious standard deck. I started collecting this year (Feb) and the first deck I owned was the artisan gold black. From that point, I slowly and meticulously built onto the collection from there. Top 3: 1. 52 plus joker 2021 Club Deck (Amazing tuck, foil on courts, gold foil on pips, the design on the back is incredible, and overall an undeniably excellent deck of cards. I keep the deck on my desk and open it at least once a day since I've gotten it. It's beautiful and a complete package. Not enough positive words for this one! ) 2. Royales: Limited Private Reserve (This deck NEEDED gold foil on the backs to really elevate it and this version did it! Really wish the courts were gold foil but luckily the metallic ink used is very shiny! Basically THE casino style deck that fits the luxury theme PERFECTLY with all the cool subtle design hints and custom pips / numbers. Really love it when designers take extra care on the standard numbered cards. Can't imagine a better actually "playing" deck than these and learned my lesson that I shouldn't have played with my red gilded version. The gilding rubbed off super quick. Rookie mistake ;) 3. EoTO: Astra polaris (To me, this is the best version of all the decks in the series. The beautiful tuck fits the theme so creatively, it's genius! Gold foil backs with that cool gilding pattern on it. I've always loved when designers pay attention to the standard cards and this deck is no slouch. The courts are extra dope and the details on numbered cards with custom numbers and pips. I know people like the intepred and quartermaster more due to them being more rare but I feel this deck just nails the theme the best out of them all!) Long post and it seems that everyone has pretty similar taste! I haven't been in the hobby for long but I'm very happy to own all the decks above! 2021 was a great year for cards, just wish I got in this hobby a little sooner before all the prices unnecessarily exploded. It's gonna take me forever to find a room17 for a decent price!! Someone help me out please ;)

Nice choices! Art of Play’s Tempo deck, designed by Michael Mateyko, deserves some love. Entirely custom artwork is a kinetic riff on the theme, suits are matched to instrument sections, the jokers are crooners - it’s a really fun and playable deck.

Fantastic list, and thank you for being open about leaving your deck out.

JT’s Wayfarers Because that last deck was the one that completely dragged me in into collecting decks. I stumbled upon that deck and I knew I had to have it and THAT initiated the madness. I’ll have to give honorable mention to AoP’s Tempo. The art and fun details on that deck are just awesome 🎷🎺🤵🏻♂️

My favorite deck of 2021 made your top ten list. My 2021 Deck of the Year was an easy choice for me - Alice in Wonderland by KWP. I may be a bit biased, but it was even more special as I watched him draw many of the cards and saw first hand the passion and insane detail that went into those cards. The videos are posted on KZfaq - Kings Wild Live. I am glad Lee's Royale also made your list. It is nice to see so many decks that are not exceedingly rare and difficult to obtain. Great decks don't have to be rare and expensive. I may have to break down and get a set of T11's Harry Potter decks. Great choice for artist of the year.

Now as for my top 3 i really don’t know since i didn’t get much decks in 2021, and tbh I’m not even sure if I got any decks from 2021, cause I’m a fairly new collector, so the decks I get aren’t the latest ones, just ones I find beautifully elegant or unique, but from what I see in pictures and reviews, I think no.1 would be the 52 + Joker, then no.2 the Eye of the Ocean and 3, Alice In Wonderland (Really love Stolkholm17 and KWP
