    My Big Deck Order

    Quoted for emphasis. Just move up to the big leagues and pick up S&M if you want custom cards.

    My Big Deck Order

    Haha, I love debates like this. Not. Honestly, I have not bought any custom decks in recent history except for Smoke and Mirrors. Some may be nice looking, some are tacky and ugly. Some are better quality, some are terrible. Some last a little longer, some die quickly. When it comes down to...

    My Big Deck Order

    Far more things count than cool looks. I wouldn't up and stick with a deck I think looks cool. That said, however, yes. Tally's are the cream of the crop when it comes to normal decks. If they even existed in my part of the country, they would be among my most used cards.

    My Big Deck Order

    Ugg... Not to start an argument, but buy brand new E decks, and lay them unused side by side. They are the same thickness. Ghosts (which you say are thin) and black ghosts (which you say are thick) are both thick, in fact, any difference is not measurable. Trust me, I own LOADS of E cards, they...

    Pick A Card Help

    Oz Pearlman's Clutch. Powerful stuff. No, it does not meet every little nit-picky qualification you are looking for, but in principal, here is what happens. They select a card, it is out jogged into the deck and handed to them while the card is still out jogged. They push it in and shuffle to...

    My Big Deck Order

    I throw these out in my order of preference, just for kicks, by feel, if it helps you at all. Best - Smoke and Mirrors (they are the same) Tally's Split Spades HUGE GAP BETWEEN THE CARDS ABOVE AND THE CARDS BELOW E-Cards (Ghosts, Black Ghosts, SM, Masters, Tigers, Vipers. They are all...

    Easy to make, 1/2 is made of everyday objects, the rest of them are easy to find.

    Get them. Once you break a deck of smoke or mirrors in, you will never go back to anything else.

    My Big Deck Order

    I did not say that it was only the fanatics who like the decks here, but they are the very reason that you think that I am "the FIRST person to say you do not like the look or feel of these cards." You are sitting right in the middle of the T11 posse, and if T11 is your main magic haunt, of...

    Dan Sperry - Card Manipulation 101 v1

    Yea, the one over at D&D's just covers back palming and a few applications. It is a good production, but I think Dan Sperry's will be a more productive purchase.

    Oh, and thanks. It takes something to stand up here and point out the truth among the fanatics. Oh, did I say that out loud?

    My Big Deck Order

    All of E's cards (except 1800 series) are printed on the same stock with the same finish, any other "feel" that you guys think makes one of them suck more than the other is in your head. Different designs, the EXACT same cards otherwise. Ghost, Black Ghost, Shadowmasters, master (R and B) Vipers...

    My Big Deck Order

    The cards from over at E are all the same. They are nice, but not phenomenal. Smoke and Mirrors are the best things that you will ever feel, and if propagandas are like the other t11 cards, you might as well pass. Besides, they are ugly and tacky looking.

    Favourite Playing Card

    7 of Spades, followed by the 4 of clubs (merely because I have lots of magic that revolves around the 4C)

    Las Vegas Clipped Cards

    You can, but remember, the corners are clipped. I dare you to try a shapeshifter. You won't be able to do it. As for flourishes, they are ok, but the backs are usually lame. Make sure you find cool ones.

    Little note on this product. Tagging is not the big part of this. It is the psychology of it all. The effects he teaches are fantastic. This is what a spectator will remember from one of the effects. "He had me pick a book. I turned to a page, picked a word, and never told him. I then...

    Las Vegas Clipped Cards

    I collect these (trying to get new ones where possible) but they are alright. I never perform with them, there are too many problems. Pick up a deck and try your normal sleights and changes, you will see. But for as cheap as they are, you might as well pick one up and try it. They are used, but...

    Bicycle Prestige Deck?

    The Bicycle decks at Walmart very LOTS by region. On the same day, you can buy a certain kind at one Walmart while finding it seemingly nowhere else. Don't waste time just waiting for them to restock. I looked today, actually, at my Walmart, just in case. Check back every week or so just to see...
