Yes, finally a deck that isn't limited so that means that I can have time to get money to get the deck awesome.

I agree but I just got my artifice v2's in the mail today and they are actually very nice. And for magicians, they are much better than v1

True dat.  In my head... green w/ border doesn't look very good.  But we'll see.

Yes your right. I like that part of the deck to. I would also like to see how good it's going to look with borders.

This deck is sexy with or without borders. I would have liked to see it without them, but I will not hold off on buying because they do have the borders. From the knowledge that have released, this will not be the Christmas deck. So far we have the Emerald and the Infinity, both not limited...so far so good, but we are to expect 2 more decks from them right?
Magical as Sin!

Correct - on most accounts. No, we will not be reprinting Red Artifice decks. There's still a few first editions in the warehouse - but they're for free gifts and prizes. We love the look of them and would love to reprint them and make heaps of money - but that would suck for everyone who owns a deck now. Red Artifice was never about making money - it was about releasing something we liked as promotional gifts/prizes.

Onto Artifice Second Edition : Emerald. Yes, bordered. No, they will not be reprinted without a border. Blue Artifice decks were printed without a border and we got slammed by emails, Facebook posts and phone calls saying 'Give us borders' - we complied, and now people are saying they don't want borders. Sadly, you can't please all the people all the time. Make them in both styles you say? Nah, we've moved on from playing with Artifice now. The decks that will be available (in unlimited runs) are the Second Edition Blues & Emeralds.

Is Emerald the Christmas deck? No. Artifice Second Edition : Emerald releases on the first of November (damn, that's next week). Infinity releases a few short weeks after that. THEN the Christmas deck will be available. Firstly, The Christmas deck will be Limited. That is - it will only be available during the Holiday Giveaway. Secondly, although we keep calling it 'The Christmas Deck' - it's not like it has pictures of Santa and Mistletoe and Tinsel and stuff on it. It's simply that it'll come out at that time. The deck is understated, elegant, and - because we love challenging USPCC - has an element that it another First for them.

Anyways - hope that clears things up. As always - any questions, comments or general cries of ecstasy can be left in this thread - or directed to the below email.

Cheers,

-Jake.

The naming is boggling my mind! Anyway, I think a combination of red + green Artifice would make an awesome Holiday set.

I hope the "Christmas deck" is sold during a limited time-frame and not a very limited run that will be sold out within an hour or two. Five-thousand print runs work great for those of us with a relatively small following, but with the amount of people that follow Ellusionist, anything under 15,000 I feel is likely to sell out within the first 48 hours.

Oh my gosh, a red and green artifice gift set would look so epic!

But beside that i have to agree with alex, granted limited numbers make re sellers SO HAPPY because they will go up in price but it makes the average deck enthusiast sad in that they got fewer or none at all then what they wanted to get.

I like those white borders on cards but, for God's sake, remove them from BOXES.

It's a deck, not a set, right?

@Jake, thank you so much for showing up here and settling some rumors and confusion. So it is a limited time offering and not a limited number offering...that is most excellent, as now I know what to ask for my bday and Christmas. And thank god it is not a Christmasy deck and only referred to as such due to when it is coming out. So...this will kind of be like the BG1? Wasn't the BG1 sold for a limited time, or am I off on that one?

Im pretty sure BGV1 was not sold at all and Red Artifice was ellusionist's first limited deck available for sale
