Thanks, David - saw it earlier this morning. Gio's "Omnia" trio (original set) came in first in several categories, 2nd "Deck of the Year" overall and tied for 1st a couple of times, also.
Great review, as always! You're still going a little long, but I love knowing what to expect. VERY close to that 'magic' number where you get a permanent URL, also...

Awesome review, as always.
David is asking me a lot of questions, privately, and because I love his style I revaled him some backstages and details I never revealed before.
If you're a fan of Omnia, you should take a look!

I watched your reviews for the Oscura, Illumina and Suprema decks 2 times now! Those are some excellent reviews, different from what every other guy is doing, and I like this style, though I love to know how a deck handles and how it looks in fans and spreads, I pretty much prefer to know the story behind the deck, and you do that perfectly. Congratulations. Keep them coming!

Fans I definitely do and I have done spreads a couple of times but will definitely try and remember to do more.
Regarding the handling I went into a little more detail in the Oscura review since that was the first one. I presumed the other two decks would handle similarly since they are printed with the same stock/finish and I didn't feel the need to add more time to my already long review xD I will admit though that I typically only comment on the handling of a deck as it is out of the box. I like to keep my cards in good condition if possible so I don't break them in. Having said that, I would think most decks from the same manufacturer that have the same stock/finish will handle similarly so as long as I give that information, people can infer how they handle?
And like you said, I prefer to focus on the story behind the deck
