Nice look, but flawed design with those "flags" printed into the bleed.  I demonstrated this flaw in the original Empire deck - not only can one detect the color of a card from the deck's edge, but if the deck isn't cut perfectly, it also functions a lot like a stripper deck, allowing me to invert a card and find it on sight from the deck's edge.

the design reminds me of grid but less elaborate.

.... and cancelled

"This project will cancel funding due to the fact that there is no progression and I have other plans for other projects.

Please understand that I am launching all these projects hoping that 1 will succeed.

Many will say that take 8 to 10 months on one deck. Who has time for that. I put in hours of my time designing these decks of cards with passion.

Thankyou for understanding"

That is probably the worst way to go about trying to have a deck funded. He's better off making an MPC order for a deck he likes and if proud of than trying to fund a larger print run deck using the ole keep launching sub par decks and see what happens method. The only thing he's likely to end up succeeding at in doing things this way, is a name that means "Don't back I'm just going to cancel it anyway". As it is, he's at 0-8. A pretty poor track record for reliability and seeing things through, this may not be his forte`.

Who's running this, a hyperactive five-year-old?  It sounds like the kid's got the attention span of a gnat.  I wouldn't trust him to follow through on anything more complex than wiping his own ass, and even that's suspect...
