Looks like the Blue Crown didn't want to let D&D get the last word with their Purple Smoke & Mirrors, so TBC put this on Instagram with the tagline "10.31.13" Looks to me like a re-release of the Black Crown deck? Which would be a curious move. Or perhaps it's blue or brown?

Purple is a popular color for the NOC deck. That's my guess - purple.

Inside info or a guess? If I had to guess, you have at least one already.
Iimited or unlimited. I ain't playing the rare deck game with TBC. We all know how that works.
These could be the Shanghai Crown Decks.

Or just a cut-price/freebie release? They seem to be doing a lot of those right now.

Actually, no. The Crown Decks use Arrco faces. They wouldn't go with a company that would copy those faces, I'm sure.

A lot? I saw just once. Are you seeing something I'm not seeing? :))

@thebluecrown: TONIGHT: Halloween Special Event (feat. black crowns..shh!)
Join us at 12AM Eastern (MIDNIGHT) for a special... http://t.co/Qzyijuhgw4
Black Crown Decks it is! The last couple of TBC promotions have caught my eye.
1. Alex Birthday Mixed Deck Promo
2. The Orange NOC Brunch Promo
And now what looks to be a nice Black Crown Promo.
I'm happy it's NOT a Purple Crown Deck. It's good to see TBC staying within their comfort zone. Competing with E, T11 and D&D at this point is going to put TBC in the hole. What I mean by that is, everything they do will be compared to those other companies and will be criticized. The Black Crowns are reminiscent of the good old Blue Crown days, when there was no HOPC and everything they put a logo on sold out.

Well.... this isn't not saying there won't be a new crown color tonight, just saying whatever sale this is Black Crowns are included :P

Well, there's less than 40 minutes to go at this point...

Purple is indeed still a possibility. But we shouldn't hold out breaths on that.
TBC/HOPC are always going to get knocked at this point. There's a handful of collectors who like to use them as their whipping boy, and to them, TBC/HOPC can do nothing right. More decks for the rest of us!
EDIT: it's live!

Two trick downloads and three decks for $31. Not a bad deal.
The decks are Bicycle Zombie, Black Altruism and Black Crown.
Still, I bet if you go to Facebook, someone will find a lame reason to bitch about it!
There's only 144 of them, so if you want it, move fast.
They also stated that this is the LAST of their supply of Black Crown decks - when they're gone, there's no more.
The trick downloads are Cannibal by Kevin Reylek and The Ghost Peek by Jim Swain.
Gonna retitle the thread so it makes sense to people seeing it now, since it's not about a new Crown deck...
