This is on Card Experiment's main page.



Seems to be a sequel to the Babel deck. It definitely looks intriguing.

Actually, I would have known about it, because I had to go on CX to get the Babel deck. Besides, you snooze, you lose.  8)

I'm hoping for a release date soon. And I really hope CX decides to do something awesome with the court cards, like how they omitted the mouths on the Babel deck.

Utopia Playing Cards
Utopia: A seemingly perfect and ideal place. When ideals collide, Utopia descends into Dystopia. The Utopia deck toys with the notions of loss of self and identity as well as conformity using highly structured and similar arrangements dosed with a touch of surrealistic imagery.

-Printed on Premium Aristocrat® stock with Magic Finish provides exceptional handling
-Featuring custom designed backs, aces, jokers, court cards & pips printed using metallic inks
-Designed by Tarin Yuangtrakul from Bangkok, Thailand
-Printed by The US Playing Card Company
-Produced by Card Experiment
-2,500 decks will be printed

Pre-order date: October 8, 2013 10PM EST @ cardexperiment.com

The blue asura has incredibly thin borders and it looks like this deck will follow its trend! I'm interested!
Alex, stop fucking with my name you phegget. xx

Mollusc and Mask were so busy fighting over who the bigger douche was, that Froggo was able to sneak in with an release update.

High-five bro!  :D

Asura's back design was more in my taste, but I love the box design in this one.

Card Experiment has put so much effort into designing a custom back, pips, joker and 4 custom large Aces. I wish they'd do something more than slightly modified court cards.

I like everything they've done with the deck,, tuckcase, the whole kabob. But the thing that really tickles my beard is what they've done with the court cards. Just simply removing the mouth really gets me, especially when taken in context to the backstory.  Given, I'm brand spankin (gently now, nothing weird) new to this hobby and haven't seen a whole lot, when I do see something that hasn't been done, especially in regards to details, I get intrigued.

Actually, there's been a few decks in the past that have used mouthless courts like this.  One was Card Experiment's own Babel deck, the others were the Mystery deck from BeDeceived and the Bicycle Clot Ltd. Edition deck (a promo deck for a Hong Kong-based clothing company).

Hmm. Can't blame the alcohol on that.
I suppose I shouldn't post when running on two hours sleep. It is the Babel deck I was thinking of. I've had that page open waiting for their pre-order to begin before I order a couple decks.

Just Fred, no you're safe. So long as my wee ones keep keep my wife and I in a drunkish, sleep deprived state, this is likely to happen again. Crap, have to grab the bat. That damn penguin is at the door again selling chocolate bars.

It's all fun and games until you smash your kid across the forehead with a bat. Go to sleep, mate. (:
