Title: Theory11 decks
Post by: phantom1412 on October 20, 2011, 03:51:41 AM
From twitter and facebook
T11 said,

"Held the newest theory11 deck for the first time this morning. They don't just raise the bar - they change the game. #monarchs"

There is no info or  pics of the deck yet. Stay tunned.

Yeah read the same thing, I really do hope their next deck has a bit more colour to it, the centurians, guardians, deckone, sentinels, propaganda are all dark decks. Just my opinion though, maybe some all the dark decks.

I like dark decks, now I'm hoping that it won't be limited deck
Title: Re: New decks from T11
Post by: VortexHead on October 20, 2011, 04:06:31 AM
I'm guessing it wont be that limited if it's a main deck release of their's unlike the jaqk decks.

Never even thought of that Head, but you are right. Either way...this deck will be called Monarchs??

There is a slew of new decks coming out. I am hoping that the big companies see this and make theirs not limited...or at least a couple not limited...spare us a little lol

Monarchs? Where did you get this info?
Title: Re: New decks from T11

The word "monarchs" was at the end of their post about it

Oh thanks. I thought that was someone's name

It very well could be...I just assumed that it was the name of the deck

Game changing? Last I heard T11 was trying to prevent the Actuators from coming out because they wanted to make their own steampunk deck. That's not game changing, that's a tad sketchy. :P

Wow Alex!!! I just got heated over that comment. I didn't know that T11 tried to go at Lance....I will leave it at that and keep my professionalism

Post by: Evan on October 20, 2011, 02:54:34 PM
T11 has been disappointing me with their releases lately. They say everything is game changing but all it is, is the same deck with a different box of with metallic ink.
Title: Re: New decks from T11
Post by: sinsandman on October 20, 2011, 03:50:51 PM
The Aristocrats were not a game changer...T11 needs to step it up for sure
Title: Re: New decks from T11
Post by: Evan on October 20, 2011, 04:00:11 PM
T11 seems to take other peoples decks and print them with better quality like the JAQK decks and Aristocrat decks
Title: Re: New decks from T11

You're right on that, never thought about it but they really do

Titanium Bikes, Bees and Tallys, Bee Stingers...  got to be more.  I still think they do good work, though.  The Propaganda deck and Deck One were both great and I like the Bee Stingers (except they have a border...)

You forgot the Aristocrats...and did they make the Guardians first or did Bicycle?

I believe they did first.
Title: Re: New decks from T11
Post by: sinsandman on October 21, 2011, 08:00:54 PM
After looking into it, I think you are right. I think it went V1 - Bicycle - V2

Well heres a teaser of the new deck!

Okay, another black deck that I might buy.
Wish it's not limited, cause I don't wanna buy it now.

Just because part of the box is black doesnt mean its a black deck.

But at least it might be black backed cards..

It is definitely looking like another dark deck...But I am a sucker and will be buying without hesitation lol

As far as I know T11 didn't do anything to the Aristocrats but correct me if i'm wrong. They are also supposed to be released Centurions V2 but that hasn't happened and it's been a long time since I first heard about this.
Title: Re: New decks from T11
Post by: vmagic on October 22, 2011, 03:27:13 PM
On a side note I think by "monarchs" maybe they mean the court cards, which does make sense as that is what they are is monarchs to be exact.
Title: Re: New decks from T11
Post by: xela on October 22, 2011, 04:39:26 PM
T11 did nothing to the Aristocrats. That's not a bad thing, they never marketed them as "Hey check out our new release." Their worst doing was rereleasing the D1IE the way they did, the multiple metallic decks, and neglecting a D1v2.

I trust this upcoming deck will be cool, but in no way "groundbreaking." They market everything as groundbreaking!
Title: Re: New decks from T11
Post by: sinsandman on October 22, 2011, 04:56:46 PM
I really only see Aether and Lance doing anything "groundbreaking" in the near future.

You're my boy Ev, but if you want your Splatter deck to be anywhere near the Vortex or Actuators, you are going to need to put many months into its design.
Title: Re: New decks from T11
Post by: Evan on October 22, 2011, 05:31:59 PM
I know. I think I've given up on the Splatter deck. But I have 2 other things in mind...
Title: Re: New decks from T11

Well, isn't there a topic about upcoming decks? Give us some sneak peeks
Title: Re: New decks from T11
Post by: Evan on October 22, 2011, 05:35:08 PM
Ive been extremely busy with school and other stuff so I haven't gotten time to start it. So far, all I have is ideas. Once I start designing it ill show pics of it
Title: Re: New decks from T11
Post by: sinsandman on October 22, 2011, 05:37:07 PM
No problem, Ev...I look forward to seeing them. Let us get back to T11 in this topic though
Title: Re: New decks from T11
Post by: Paul Carpenter on October 22, 2011, 10:57:09 PM
I'm hoping this deck comes out cool, their stuff is not always my favorite but is great on the whole (love my Deck One and Sentinels). I also have to give them thanks that their reach is far enough that they got a blurb in a design related blog, which made me realize this kind of stuff existed after about 20 years of not paying attention to cards. So, I owe Theory11 some props for getting me back in the game. :)
Title: Re: Theory11 decks
Post by: austin on October 23, 2011, 01:55:01 AM
I am going to get this deck when it comes out hopefully if it looks good. I hope that it's got more color to unlike there other dark decks. I like dark decks but I would also like to see other colors to.
Title: Re: Theory11 decks

Lets get back on Theory11 decks topic- Also, he was joking about the new deck being metal
Title: Re: Theory11 decks
Post by: sinsandman on October 26, 2011, 08:03:56 AM
I am still wondering if the "monarchs" at the end of their posts is indeed the name of the deck. I assume that these cards will have metallic ink since they are named after royalty...hell, we might even see a purple deck. I am just hoping that they are putting out a deck that is actually of worth. I don't own too many T11 decks and there is a reason for that
Title: Re: Theory11 decks
Post by: Evan on October 26, 2011, 03:00:01 PM
T11 seems to love using metallic ink so I'm sure the new deck will have it
Title: Re: Theory11 decks
Post by: sinsandman on October 26, 2011, 03:18:43 PM
More than likely. Metallic ink is not a bad thing by any means...but when a company tries to sell decks and promote decks with metallic ink as their selling point, that should be a flag. To date, would you say metallic ink decks have better handling or worse handling than non-metallic? Honest question there. I know we are striving for the Vortex to get metallic, but it would be a compliment to the deck, not their main selling point.

I love the metallic ink and I don't think it changes how the deck feels
