I wouldn't assume people would think that the Artifacts are gimmicked right off the bat.. and if they do, they'll be impressed when you let them check everything out before and after the effect. Using those coins would just be like using the arcanes, black tigers, shadow masters, ghosts, sentinels, centurons, etc. All of those decks look awesome, but at the same time different, which is why some people might question them, but that doesn't stop the thousands of people from buying and performing with them..
