Before I get flamed to use the search button, rest assured that I already have, and I would like a collective review on all cards. I would like to see how everyone rate their cards, a mark out of 10. Not so much the appearance but more on how the cards handle.

I understand that everyone has a different opinion on everything so It would be good to establish a baseline and say that Standard Bicycle Rider backs are 7/10.

Here are mine:

Blue and Red Wynns: 6.5/10
Bicycle Rider backs: 7/10
Aladdin 1001: 7.5/10
Brown Wynns: 7.5/10
Bicycle Guardians: 8/10 (same for centurions)
Ghosts: 8.5
Tally Ho #9: 9/10
Split Spade Lions: 9/10

I would greatly appreciate everyone's input =D

I think with most cards like Karnivals, Theory11, Ellusionist. I have had good and bad batches.

indeed
I have a godly deck of Guardian and Karnis.
They both fan perfectly even when done really slowly.
Normal decks clump if you fan slowly.
My guardian is my first guardian deck from when they came out and it still feels like heaven. haha
kinda awesome!
haha.
