    Great video and awesome list man! The only one I would personally add to my list would be the Room 237 from Penguin Magic. I feel like they are extremely overlooked and just not talked about very much, but they are an absolutely beautiful deck!

    I personally prefer more simplistic designs or modern/pattern/geometric card and font designs, but I can find myself collecting some of these. You showed some really pretty and awesome decks featuring amazing works so I really enjoyed this video regardless.

    I absolutely adore the The Grand Golden Glamor Deck and it is one of my top decks, but i might be bias towards these cause of the art deco style.
    Not sure if they came out in 2021 tho.

    I'm pretty new to card collecting. I have two card decks already, but the first one was before I was interested in cards so I don't know if that should count. Bought the latest one just a while ago. Pretty cheap ones but you gotta start somewhere right? Within reason ofc, money don't grow on trees hehe. Subbed!

    @Tamarus19 Před 2 lety +2

    I'm not a fair judge, I really only go for decks that are usable for game-play. So for me I certainly agree with Hummingbird, 52+Joker, and BlueJay (Harry Potter would be an honorable mention). I can appreciate the art in the others they're just what I like in playing cards.

    There's been a lot of great decks last year. Some that I really liked and are not mentioned here : Card Cuts Jungle 2021, Pinocchio Vermilion II Ed, The Beatles by T11, Jellyfish by Penguin Magic, Mindfulness by Art Of Play.

    • @TheCardGuyReviews

      @TheCardGuyReviews  Před 2 lety

      Oh man...that would be a fun one. Not sure, though. What few little tidbits I know...I would not want to spoil for the creators behind them! A few things that I think are ALWAYS good advice:
      1. The Inner Circle from Jocu is a winner. Predicted today.
      2. Thirdway has some tremendous stuff coming on Patreon and an upcoming campaign that will be one of his best.
      3. Lorenzo has teased some upcoming work on Patreon as well. If it HALF lives up to the vision, it's going to be stunning.
      4. Riffle Shuffle will release 8-10 more "fancy" designs from different artists. I'll buy them all. Love them all.

    Some of your mentions suck, cards must had standard size values (jumbo is okay sometimes) but extra small is no bueno, makes them too much to play with. I found this a problem with the Avengers set from Theory 11.

    • @TheCardGuyReviews
      @TheCardGuyReviews  Před rokem

      Haha - glad to see you like the picks! I think everyone is going to look at cards a bit differently. For me, I definitely lean heavily into concept, theme and artwork - even at the expense of usability.
      If I was going to judge usability, I would definitely go in a very different direction.
      But that's the beauty of the hobby - so many different ways to collect!

    • @TheCardGuyReviews
      @TheCardGuyReviews  Před rokem

      Not sure if I had a slip of the tongue, but I assume that was “tuck case”! And THAT I assume is either because you “tuck” the cards into it, or because closing it means “tucking” the flap in.

    MOResque? It means Moorish in design or style. Then why aren’t the court cards Moors (the Moors were African, and were black ppl)? They’re all still Arab Court cards! Kinda a little racist, and def a tad embarrassing (if you know what Arabesque and Moresque mean).

    • @TheCardGuyReviews
      @TheCardGuyReviews  Před 2 lety

      My understanding here is that the word Moresque is a reference to a particular art style that you see used throughout the deck, as opposed to a race of people. The art style was used throughout Europe and has Arab roots to it.
