Both beautifully customized but different enough to be loved by all!

As suggested by the homie froggo!

I'm partial to Blue Blood - I know the people who made it, and I don't generally get decks that support tobacco or alcohol companies.  But I also like the design!

Both great decks but this is where the music nerd in me comes out.  When a group gets popular I tend not to like them anymore.  I'm that guy.  Jaqk was sold by T11 and thus, in my mind, akin to mainstream. Blue Bloods are a little more Indie.  Blue Bloods FTW.

I find it humorous that Theory11 is now thought of as "mainstream", though if I showed any of their designs to the average Joe on the street, they would think the total opposite...  :))

I know, I thought that while I was typing my reply.  Pretty sure everyone I know and interact with on a regular basis would have no Idea what Theory 11 is.  That being said I considered my audience an thought it a fitting comparison. ;)

Both are in a league of its own. There is just no way i could separate these two from a card design standpoint. Comparing the tuck boxes however, the JAQK wins fairly easily as it has a much nicer matte texture and also incorporates foiling. Thus i'd have to give just the slightest edge to JAQK just for the sake of competition.

Went with the JAQK's. Just not a fan of the Uusi decks. Just not my style.

Terrible finish on the JAQKs, only had the red, so i cant say the same for the rest. Both are well designed, but bluebloods take the cake
