I know its quite an old product in terms of reviews, but I couldnt find one when deciding whether or not to buy it.
This is the "new" deck from Big Blind Media.
1. The thing that stands out the most is the design. One of my favorite designs for a deck. It doesnt look like your classic bikes or tallies with random shapes and 100% symetrical from all angles. This deck has a grunge/ vector styled design with skeletons, stars, splatters, and everything else graphics designers (such as myself) love. It is fully black and white. As well as the basic design, the border is also like none other. Instead of your normal rounded corners or sharp points, you get a great design along it as well. The edges/ corners have that.... (forgot the name) awesome romey grecian grotesquey sort of look to it. You just have to see it to understand. Its freaking unbelievable. The 2-Kings are normal as always. The joker and the ace of spades is just mind blasting. Go to their website and check it out.
2. This deck gives "feels like butter" a new meaning. Imagine taking melted butter and mixing oil in it and using that as a finish. I dont know if you would like this, but its not bad. I wouldnt say it is ideal for flourishing as it easily slides around and is not at all clumpy. The same goes for tricks. It feels great but you may fumble once in a while due to the fluid like feature. But if you are a gambling demonstration sort of guy, then this deck is perfect. All shuffles can be done with ease. The faro, riffle, overhand, bridge, everything feels like an orgasm. When you bridge a normal deck. You feel a crisp flicking within your hands. When you bridge this deck, imagine riffle rose petals. Thats the only comparison I can come up with.
3. Extras you get:
-Double backer
-One way design: a dot on the edge allowing you to note cards in a tight spread.
-Reveal with Joker. One is holding a sculpture of the 3 of hearts.
-Reveal with barcode. Like any LEET text, you get a 7Ev3N oF sPaD3S.
Overall, I love the way this deck looks and feels (only for gaming though). For magic and flourishing its rather... meh... Its not ideal for much moving around as it easily slips between each other. But seriously, if you are looking for a deck with a new feel and want to have an orgasm while shuffling then buy this.
