Top 12 Playing Card Decks of 2021 - The Card Guy 

That’s awesome! Hope I can help you discover some goodies.

@@TheCardGuyReviews yeah you've got me hooked on the thirdway industries decks!

Yes I have also collected 3 decks

@@nicolaslesperance8532 hah yeah i just dropped a grand because of tim 😂

It was such a great year!

I’ll let you in on a secret. I could have probably put another TWI deck or two on here if you pressed me. 😂

That was a tricky one for me to place. I love what they did with it. But I also always dock points for standard courts. It is a fantastic deck though.

These are THE 12 to get!

Fantastic additions! Pinocchio in particular is a masterpiece, although I did not consider it for this year since the main design was from a previous year.

Hindsight is one of the best decks I’ve seen in a few years now. Simply stunning.

@@TheCardGuyReviews same as you Tim, this is also my first NPCCD and the tuck is very unique

Jody always does amazing work. Umbra was such a good follow up to Luminosity!

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.

I’d love to check em out. But I don’t think I’ll be picking them up unfortunately.

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!

And how much do they cost and where can I buy it?

It's called Moresque from Oath Playing Cards. They run a little under $20 and you can get them here: www.oathplayingcards.com/product-page/moresque-player-s-edition

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.

Not sure what you mean by this one?

@@TheCardGuyReviews there are usually 2 jokers per deck. However, I know two decks (brands...) with 3 jokers, why isn't that constantly the same? my own game which I invented you need 3 jokers...

What’s wrong with Harry Potter?? 😅

@@TheCardGuyReviews I just think it just tales prestige away from the cards haha and the work of the artists. it makes it more comercial.

​@@alpacamale2909who gives a shit about that, theyre great cards.

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.
