Sounds pretty interesting. I'm just curious as to how a deck can be made for flourisher's, as in stock, finish, and design
A stock that's supple but also can resist crimping.
A finish that's slicker than wet glass.
A design that does one of two things, depending on the flourisher's style.
1) A simple, streamlined design that allows your artistry to be center-stage.
2) A design with excellent patterns and colors, particularly at the corners, and either a thin border or no border at all. It's also possible that a one-way design would make the deck more flexible for flourishing, allowing more unique flashes of color and design than a two-way back could deliver.
All I can say is, Its about time. A Singaporean deck that would not cost a bomb for Singaporeans Maybe the Virts will even drop by here at some point.
What, the Mana deck wasn't enough for you?
You know who's making the deck, as in, it is USPC or not?
Think handling, and a nice design is a bonus.
It will most likely be engineered to handle well and be balanced in a flourisher's hand.
Unlike collectors, we don't focus too much on how much kit a deck has.
I find it slightly amusing when collectors say that a particular deck handles well when it actually doesn't...
That is funny, considering that there's a decent-size contingent that never open the cellophane... "Oh, it handles great! It makes crinkly noises when I pass it from hand to hand, see? And the foil is very shiny... The embossing helps you really get a grip on it, too!"
