Muertos - Day of the Dead Playing Cards by Steve Minty
Steve has had the most successful Crowdfunded deck this year to date, no brainer.

It's not simply about "most successful" - it's about "best".  The two are not always the same thing.

Too early for me to nominate or second here. There are several amazing decks that are set to ship before the year ends, but may not make it. Very difficult category in my opinion.
Part of my Collection updated infrequently but occasionally, when I remember. (I haven't in months.)

  • Charm gets you quite far. Guile gets you the rest.
Jackson's Sherlock Campaign.

I have backed nearly 40 projects and that one was one of the most fun, and most exciting ones to be a part of. Secret teirs, and a lot of drama that came with them, google chat sessions with Jackson, a metric digital ton of comments and discussion on the project page, great assisting staff, tons of awesome updates and add ons. It was a stellar campeign the whole way through and had me checking back daily to check for opened up teirs and new comments.
Kickstarter completely revolutionized the way I waste money.

The people who handle playing cards are always in a world of delicate fingertip technology.

Just to clarify, are we voting on the best deck that happened to be crowdfunded, or the best crowdfunding exercise that happened to be for a deck?

Thank you everyone for your nominations!!!
Just note if you pick 3-10 decks your first nomination will be the one that counts.
Also if the deck is yet to be released, the vote can only count if it is released in 2014.

I think this is whatever YOUR interpretation of "Best Crowd funded Campaign Deck of 2014" is. I can see it means different things to different people.  :karrit:

Maybe I misinterpreted this one. I thought we were nominating the campaign itself, not the best deck that was crowd funded. For best crowdfunded deck I nominate Pagan. Not Sherlock.

If the title was "Best Crowd-funded Deck Campaign of 2014", your initial assumption would have been correct.  But alas, it is "Best Crowd-funded Campaign Deck of 2014", so yes, it's the deck that you're nominating, not the campaign.

I would like to nominate TENEBRE Playing Cards by 4PM DESIGNS. I feel this deck made a statement and that was key to it's success in crowdfunding.
