These aren't bad (except the courts, I don't like them at all) except $19 for an LPCC deck shipped? Sorry, not there yet.

Honestly, these are pretty nice. The tuck is very good, the back design is very good, and I like the number cards.

However... The court cards are bad, the total deck+shipping cost is bad, and the "brand name" is horrible. Magiclism? I read it as "Magic Slime" every time. Yikes.

if I remember correctly, this deck was sold in China couple months ago, for less than 10 dollars

I know I'm right!

Then this shouldn't be a KS! What is going on here??

Not to be contrary (me? I would never! ), but what's to like about the number cards? The layouts look standard, and it seems a little weird to me that the pips on the eights through tens are visibly smaller than on the twos through sevens. The pips themselves do look slightly customized, but it's hard to tell since you can't get a good look at them up close in the pictures or the video (and also, screw these guys for making me watch a video).

There's some okay design work here, but like Roop always says, "okay" just doesn't cut it in this market. I don't dislike the courts, but there's not much to like about them either. Gonna be a no for me.

Well it's just another bocopo and another TCC using KS as a platform to sell decks to US buyers. I reported every of their projects but obviously KS want to make money from them

haha it seems the most efficient way is to comment rather than report. Good that KS is taking this more seriously.

I do not dislike this deck at all, but I don't like people doing business like this.

btw in the link I provided they mentioned the deck is limited to 1,000. There's not a single word in the KS campaign regarding the quantity. I feel sorry for whoever bought this deck and firmly believing the limited quantity

I think I actually prefer that method more tbh - it calls them out on their BS and makes other backers/potential backers aware of it as well

I love this place.

Another one bites the dust! I do really like these though, particularly the courts, so I might just pick up a deck from Taobao in the future..
