Chancellor is moving right along, and I think you will enjoy these new images. Check Facebook for more.

One double backer (one side black the other side white)
The phrase you're looking for here is "blank facer."
The foiling looks terrific. Can you give us any details about the Robusto stock?
It was covered in 1 of the card culture edition - October if I am not mistaken.
In the card culture it was calles something else - Iron Stock (somewhere along that)
Oh is this their mysterious 'iron stock'? I have been curious to see this hit the market. Heaviest stock available from what I understand..?
Robusto is indeed the market name for what was being called "Iron Stock" while it was still in development. Cigar smokers will easily recognize the name - it's the largest of cigar sizes.
I can't recall which CARD CULTURE had the article on EPCC's stocks, but I do recall that the mid-year special issue reprinted it, so it was definitely before October. That special issue was free of charge to the public and a link should still be around here if you wanted to check it out.
The stock is SIGNIFICANTLY thicker than anything else EPCC offers, and makes old-school Bee Casino look more like modern Bicycle stock. I think an entire deck, measured in haste with a caliper, was in the ballpark of 10mm thicker than any of their other stocks! You can see and feel the difference immediately. If you like your stock bullet-proof, this is the next best thing. If you want to practice card throwing with it, stay away from the windows and any delicate or not-so-delicate breakables and don't throw them at your little brother!

hmm when I missed the white silver deck I was disappointed, but now I am lucky enough to get the silver edition
This is a very difficult situation for Jackson..
I don't think anyone wins in this situation. And Jackson has made his decision, I don't think it is the best option, but it is his call and I know that he doesn't take his backers lightly. The anti-russian conspiracy seems a little extreme though...
oh I had experience this twice, once with the Serpentine deck and the second with Mantecore...
I don't normally wash my hand before use and even when I do, I always completely dry my hand.
That is the reason why I think only the emerald finish had this issue.
The only possible cause I can think of that makes sense is that somehow you transferred moisture from your hands to the cards. It's not like the ink isn't dry when you get them. If you look at the card edges, have they warped at all or do they have any odd black stains? I kept wondering where the black stains on the edges were coming from on a lot of my decks, even tried to remove/erase them, until I accidentally got a deck wet and saw the edge turn black - it's exposed graphite from the card's glue layer. When they get a little wet, it shows up like a sore thumb, especially on USPC's stock.
Are these going to be available for purchase anywhere? I didn't want to sign up for Indie GoGo just for this campaign and therefore missed it.
This deck is available from Cardvolution.com since they co-produce this deck.
1 thing I noticed about the emerald finish that I received last week. After playing with it for a while doing riffle shuffle, dribbling, passes and faro, I found some colour stains on my fingers and the card edges as well.
Has anyone open their diamond finish mantecore deck? I just want to know if it has the same issue.
I've run into this at the hospital with a variety of decks. If you use hand sanitizer, make sure your hands are completely dry before handling the cards. Better to wash and dry your hands, especially with collectibles.
I have to admit... I had a dream of the brimstone deck a few nights ago.. oh boy I really can't wait for it
Dude, it's a great deck and all that...but you need help!
I think I do need help

interesting how you changed from computer gaming to card magic. I was in similar boat, I was into a few games but I stopped all that since I got into card collecting and magic.If you think collecting modern decks is fun, wait until you discover VINTAGE decks...
Never tried LPCC.
Only got 1 deck from EPCC (NOCv3). But I don't like it. The feeling is so plastic. And it started clump together after around 2 weeks. Yes I agreed the plastic feel might make the deck last a bit longer. But I prefer paper feels.
However, I don't mind to pick some LPCC or EPCC to try on, in the case there are some great designs available.
Although I prefer USPCC a bit more, I am a bit disappointed with their recent years production. It seems that all are from the similar (if not the same) stock.
I love my UV500 decks, I love my OHIO Propaganda, I love my Split Spades Lions. They are all bold, solid and with luxury paper feeling. Sadly such feeling is too difficult to find from those decks produced in recent years.
That might be a stupid question, but I always thought LPCC and EPCC are the same? Whats the difference between those two?
The deck looks great but i don't like this new trend in KS decks... specially from mister kings wild.
They are getting too expensive for no real reason.
$27 Dollars each deck? for an artificially scarce new deck? With no discount or free shipping or any kind of "reward" to the backers?
I know this decks are not cheap to make, but when you fund all your projects with kickstarter and basically take out the "risk" factor from it, aaand you use someone else's money to create it... then why so expensive? why the need to make it ultra unique? just for the sake of it?
The bubble is just growing...
At this point, I'm simply wondering why he bothered making it a two-week project when he could have made it a single day and sped up the process.
