These cards handle so good - words can't describe. What I can say is these are the best cards ever... EVER!
Luke • Georgia • 03/04/10
These cards are AMAZING! This is my first pack of Centurions and I will be getting more in the future.
Ryan • Canada • 02/21/10
I bought a brick of these and I love them. My friends have asked to buy packs off me for twice their worth and I can't seem to part with these. BUY A BRICK. That's all I can say!

These cards handle amazingly. I took them right out of the box and they handled...so perfectly. I couldn't believe it. I will never go back to a "normal" deck of cards again. I recommend buying a brick of these things as they are absolutely wonderful. The design of the cards is also astounding. The Ace of Spades and The Jokers are gorgeous.

Glad I picked up a deck of these before they sold out. As soon as they come out again, buy a brick of these. You will love the design and feel of them.
Joel W. • Sheffield, England • 08/03/09
WOW! These are the first playing cards I have purchased by theory11 and I am very impressed.
These cards handle like a dream straight out of the box and are great to do Cardistry with. The best cards I have ever bought. Other sites - eat your heart out!

These are the first cards i ever got from theory11, and i got exactly what i wanted. These cards fan beautifully and are still firm enough to dribble awesomely.
Dani • USA • 06/15/09
I've just received these in the mail today and they are beautiful!
I've never handled such a smooth deck. They fan perfect, spread perfect, and the artwork is phenomenal. Very, very nice deck. I will be buying more of these in the future.

These cards are amazing! They fan perfectly, have a nice feel, and are the best for magic. In other words, the best Bicycles you will ever use!
Brice • Kentucky, USA • 12/19/08
So i just got these today and they are amazing! My amazing girlfriend got me SIX of these for christmas! I had them on my christmas list but never mentioned them to her. Wow she must have read my mind.
Anyways the stock is a bit thicker than the guardians which i like a lot. They make for easier dl's and overall control. Centurions blow regular bicycle's out of the water! no joke. way better than any of E's cards by far. I will definitly be using these for a long time. they hold up very well even after some hard flourishing and shuffling tests i put them through.
Definitly go buy these right now. You won't regret it!
5/5 no doubt

This deck is great. It was my first Theory11 deck, and it feels awesome and does its job. I do recommend getting 2 decks so you can not be afraid to bend or mess up your only deck. It is great at fanning.The stock is way better than a standard bicycle deck. The double backer works for magic and i like using that a lot.
Matthew Krohn • Littleton, CO • 10/05/08
These cards are THE most durable I have ever used. After the finish set out, the deck fanned perfectly. I have been in front of the computer for an hour messing around with the cards in my sweaty hands. These are the definition of excellence. The packets stay perfect and are beautiful. Add these to cart NOW.

Today, I tried out a different magic store than the one I normally go to. I was just going to get some fanning powder for my old decks, but when I was there I noticed that they had products from theory11. I asked the guy what he thought of these cards, and he said that they were the best cards he uses - and boy was he right.
These are phenomenal. My brand new deck (and even the months old trial deck) felt great. I can't wait to break them in and give them the beauty of an old deck. These cards are amazing in every way, and they come with a free double backer. If you were able to get one deck of cards, it should be this deck.
Kevin Ho • Anonymous • 04/08/08
These cards are unbelievable. At first, they just feel like a regular deck of Bikes with a thicker stock. But once you break them in... wow.
The design is absolutely amazing. In my opinion, these are the best looking custom-made cards ever. Very stylish. Great stock and finish.
Design (including the box, the backs, and the AS) -- 11/10
Handling (for flourishes) -- 8/10
Handling (for magic) -- 10/10
Overall: 9.5

So I walked into my house after school, and there is a package from FedEx sitting on my bed. Guess who it's from.
I pop it open, and inside is a black envelope. Handwritten in silver ink is my name, along with the words, "Intelligenti Pauca." My mind exploded.
As you can probably guess, I was one of the 11 to receive a deck of Bicycle Centurions, and here's my review.
Backs: The backs on these cards are amazing. They're sleek, modern, and overall gorgeous. You can see them in the gallery on the Centurions page for yourself. The only con is that the black is a bit faded, so it appears to be more of an incredibly dark grey.
Faces: Bingo. Jackpot. Insert phrase of happiness here. The faces on these cards are great. The reds have been brightened just a tad from the darker reds on the Guardians. The royal cards are all red, grey, black, and white. They look amazing. The Ace of Spades is great, as well. It's the spade you see on the backs, with skulls on the bottom, and little flourishing designs around it.
Now, I really have to single two cards out. The Jokers. They are my favorite cards in the deck. On the upper left corner and the lower right corner is the word JOKER, stretching vertically across the face of the card. On the opposite corners are stars. The main picture is something totally new. Instead of some humanoid figure, there is a shield. Yes, a shield. There are two crossed sword across it, and two more skulls. I am going to be using the Jokers as much as possible.
Handling:
Magic
For magic, these cards are great. They were a little clumpy coming out of the box, but that all but went away. The faces are awesome for color changes, and I can do all of my sleights easily.
Flourishing
As I said, the cards were a bit clumpy, similar to the first edition Guardians, but not as bad. The clumping only lasted for a little while, and now they are great. They hold together fairly well for cuts, and the fanning isn't bad, either. The feel is similar to a deck of Guardians.
Overall: I really love this deck. Now they need to come out with some other colors. I can totally see it now: Red Centurions, Inverse Centurions.
All in all, I have to give this deck a 9.5/10.
Good job Theory 11.

Theory11 has done it again. Phenomenal design.
Andrei Jikh • Las Vegas • 03/03/08
The pictures don't do justice to these cards. They look much better in real life. Amazing fanning capabilities, soft, and stunning design makes for one hell of a deck.
My favorite is the joker and the box itself. Matte finish gives this deck a professional sleek look. Pick up a few, you won't regret it.
