From the same guy who designed the Requiem Deck.

"To be on KS after Requiem Playing Cards are delivered to backers."

More images and updates can be found on https://www.facebook.com/hereticcards
I personally think this guy deserves more credit. Looks like 2 nice decks in a row.

I just barely missed Requiem and I'm a bit annoyed at myself about it (I had a chance and waffled too long).  I won't be making the same mistake with this deck!

This is very nice. I might not buy them but I can appreciate how well designed they are.

Just very cool design and theme. Hits all the right spots in my book. Possibly backing.

I love these kind of decks.

I backed the Requiem, and I'll definitely be backing these.

  • You only go around once - spin hard as you can!
It's official. Now that we have approval from KS, Heretic will launch at 3pm EDT (not standard time, I don't have the .AI file so I can't fix it...

My Requiems are in my hands.  Looking forward to these.  I just hope my parents have internet access, as I'll be visiting them for Memorial Day.

Looks like you're doing well so far - I plan to back it soon.

I find it VERY refreshing that you're not selling a million little tchotchkes to go with the deck.  It shows greater focus and honestly, how many dice sets and dealer coins does one person actually need, especially if they're not a primary focus of their collection?

Really diggin' the looks of this deck. In for 2 already, but will probably update when Noctis gets unlocked :)

Thanks for keeping shipping prices for international backers reasonable as well! Looking forward to receiving these  ;D

Excellent, I'm in.

Requiem was way too disturbing for me. I have tender sensibilities, and the Queen of Hearts was ... Ack.

But the level of artistic unease in these is just right. I'm glad to be able to buy something from this artist, I think he's really good.

Whilst the focus may be the cards, when add-ons are organized rather then a random smorgasbord of options, I do find it nice purchasing a few extras. Especially since I enjoy playing some poker games with a nice themed collection... albeit many do get overly cluttered with a million and one variable options.

Cool subtle 2-way on the backs.  Love the Spades' Courts! (really love all of them, but the spades are extra special, in my opinion!)

In for 2, more when Noctis hits the mark.

I think you meant "Cool, subtle one-way design on the backs."  'Cause they aren't two-way, they're one-way.

I really dislike being an international backer ... all the extra money that could have gone to buying more decks :P

Pledged for 3 and will add more when the other deck gets unlocked.

Kinda bummed that I missed Requim, and there are sites selling them for $27 each? So doubt I'll be getting any of them :(

You should use a consolidation service, like shipito.com.  They give you a US address you can use to receive deliveries from US companies at the domestic rate, then once you've accumulated enough items, they'll re-ship everything to you in a single package.  Depending on what such a service charges and what the companies you order from charge for international and domestic shipping, it can add up to noteworthy savings for you.
