It's Friday! I know!
Monarchs by Theory11 printed by USPCC. These cards going to be good for Card Magic and Card games like Poker and Black Jack but are they any good for Cardistry? And how do they feel?!
Let's open some packs!

I have a new deck that I'm working on that's inspired by collectable card games and it also has a solo card game built into it.
Check out the first video on that deck here:

God Bless & see y'all in the next one!
Turns out there's a White and Gold one too! Who knew!
I knew 😅and there's a black version too, it was made for the film Now You See Me 2
@@vene3819 there are white and silver ones too! regular silver Monarchs, and the incredibly-hard-to-find, probably-very-expensive-if-you-do silver Monarchs that were originally made only for guests who dined at the the Eleven Madison Park restaurant in NYC.

Wrong. It was the "blue" version.
I think the green is my favourite.
The longer Latin phrase on the back design translates as:
“Of two evils, the lesser one must always be chosen.”
So yeah, it’s represents evil, but at least in a cautionary way.
Oh snap! Thanks for the info yo! \o/
17:50 The snake is ancient symbolism, which, as magicians, we just love. I just learned about this myself. Either deception, or like secret/esoteric knowledge.
Deception! Watch out! 👀!
The sword ⚔️ slaying the serpent makes perfect sense, because the word of God Almighty (Bible) is represented by a double edged sword, it cuts to the heart!
It does! \o/
Gold decks look always so luxurious
They are bro. In Dubai blue deck costs 85 dhs( 23.25 usd) .( I can get 3 bicycle or tally hoo decks)
I liked listening to your voice. I could probably watch you unbox anything.
That is very kind of you! thx!
@@DiggoDecks Same, great voice man!
Really nice cards 👍👍
I am a beginner to card (I do cardistry more than magic tho) an I started a deck collection
What deck do you think I should buy
Go to your local store like Target, Walmart, or Pharmacy and buy what you like. Start with cheap decks because you're going to ruin them as you learn. Collecting, start with what ya like or think is cool, ignore prices as they will always be lies upon lies!
@@DiggoDecks k thanks man
@@wyssssh you got it yo! Welcome to the hobby! \o/
Is that a Great Eastern Cutlery slipjoint folder in the upper right?
No it’s a Case Bermuda Green Peanut Pocket Knife. Love it!
Are in all this decks double back guff cards?
nice video i like it👍🙂, can you do a review on butterfly playing cards for the next video?
Thx yo! And guess what, it's actually on the list and I'll be doing it pretty soon. ;)
@@DiggoDecks there's a Kickstarter for white border Butterflies right now
At 3:49, the white boarders on the back of the cards are not equal in width. It looks as though the cutters were not in alignment properly prior to cutting!
Yeah I just opened some cards recently and it was nuts how off they were lol
@@DiggoDecks
I've got lots of "Bicycle" cards and other brands, such as" "Bee", "Tally-Ho", "Monarchs", "Rider Back", "Standards" etc. And most of them were cut off-centre. Most of these expensive playing cards are known as luxury cards. So who's responsible for "quality control" at "Bicycle"? By the way, I have "blue" Monarch, but they definitely look "black".
It's so disappointing when expensive cards have worse quality than cheap random cards. Like, you had one job...
Is this american quality thing? I had awfully centered Kem's once and they were very expensive.
@@rusinaseppo7474
Many of the so-called high-quality playing cards, like "Theory 11," have not just been cut a little bit out of alignment, but are so bad, it's almost cutting into the print area! If the USPCC had proper quality control, then this would never happen (they obviously don't care about quality).
@@redblade8160 Are Theory11 cards made by USPCC? Is it only card manufacturer in USA?
How much do these cost at Target? More or less than online?
Depends on the target? But anywhere from 9.95 to 14.95 or so. Again, depends on your target.
oh and my deck has a smudgy too
Dang yeah it is probably the veggie inks!
Is it water proof?
These cards are not waterproof. They're USPCC paper stock.
amazing review 10/10
Glad you enjoyed it
What do they cost
10 bucks USD usually.
I like your videos very much, but the sound of spring after spring is annoying and needlessly time consuming.
😂 It's how I feel the cards yo!
Thanks but just a little research will make your reviews much better, my friend.
'Regis' is Latin for 'Of the King', which means anything of ownership of royalty or 'an ode to'.
'Occult' literally means 'hidden', not satanic.
'De duobus malis minus semper eligendum' - Latin for 'choose the lesser of the two evils'. Basically means choose carefully, i.e. in card games, you have to play wisely. There are no dark undertones, it's actually quite clever.
The serpent is the ancient symbol of wisdom and courage, not the devil. The usual symbol is the snake coiled around a staff, which is the 'Rod of Asclepius', who was the Greek God, known for healing. It's now the worldwide symbol for medicine. If it was the serpent in the Garden of Eden, it would depict Eve with the apple. The serpent that gave the apple to Eve is in fact a fairytale for the angel Prometheus handing knowledge to mankind. The devil was the one that made the garden 😉
I hear ya.I do things a tad different where I know little to nothing about a deck when I open it. Others have mentioned the same thing and I understand where they're coming from. Think of my channel as more of an experience we can share together. Others in the comments section correct me when I'm incorrect and also add in information as you have. That's the gist of it.
Thanks for the feedback yo!
@@DiggoDecks Ah, I totally get you dude. I enjoyed it nonetheless and the fact that you do this totally blind to the product is a cool thing actually! Thanks for the vid, I'm now looking into those cards because of it 😉
@@twelveuhr awesome! Glad ya liked the vid and glad to have helped!
Bro what are you talking about, serpents? I’ve never heard anyone talk about the snake “fooling” Adam & Eve like that. Is that something ppl say, like, re: magic?
Yeah dude, the serpent represents deception. You've never heard this? That's why a lot of magicians use the serpent in their logo.
@@DiggoDecks I’ve heard about the serpent meaning deception yeah. Guess I just never heard it referred to like that: “fooling” Adam & Eve.
Yes the Serpent deceived Adam & Eve in the garden of Eden
I will subscribe if you unbox the high victorian fromthory11
😂!! Yo, I have an opened one I always show, I thought I did a video on it? Maybe not! I talk about it sometimes though.
Are this plastic
Nope, these are USPCC stock. Similar to bicycle cards.
