Unread post by CBJ »

A new deck from BigBlindMedia is coming out to showcase Owen's band (Owen owns BBM)

And if you look... Owen (from BigBlind) is on guitar

I remember these being available as a kickstarter sort of thing but only with their album or something like that.

Bmpoker, will you be carrying these?

It has been a while and I honestly don't remember if Owen said these would be available separately, without the album or not. If they are we will be carrying them.

Thanks!

Nice, a band deck! I wonder if they will have skulls (again) on this deck...

I didn't know Owen played the guitar?! That's pretty cool. Have you guys heard any of their songs? I'm curios as to what they play.

As far as the cards are concerned do we have any other info besides the box art?

Too late! As noted on the .net, skulls appear to the left and right of the "horns" coming out of the ace of spades on the box.

Who knows what other evils lurk within... :o

Awww oh well shame though. I don't own a single BBM deck for that very reason. But it's not a bad thing. It's their preference on design. Anyway rock on !

Am i right that karnival decks don't fan well? I use a few of their decks last time such as dead eyes and after a while, i can't do a nice fan at all. :?

Yep had the Karnival renegades and they were truly bad quality.
The dead eyes are a bit better but still horrible hehe

I like that these aren't super over-the-top.

But yeah, I agree.

Of all the decks they've made, this is leaps and bounds more interesting to me. Still though, the level of "grunge" and the "let's pack every possible millimeter with stuff and then add more" doesn't really make me want to buy. I will say they certainly have a style all their own, that's for sure!

These look really cool! And I guess you could call those thin borders! That makes me happy.

I agree, Jay, the joker just looks like lazy rework of the back design.

Still, definitely one of BBM's better releases.

Not sure I like these very ornate aces. Have to see the courts.

Are the band members on the courts?

I mentioned this before (on UC.net), but there are skulls on the box and on every ace.
They're subtle, but you can definitely see them to the top left and right of the center pip.

it's rather difficult with my karnivals if it's about fanning:
- original karnival: awesome
- karnival midnight: really bad
- karnival assasins: really bad
- karnival renegades: awesome
- karnival ryujin: even worse than assasins ...
- karnival dead eyes: meh. they're ok
- karnival hornets: really good
- karnival dose redux: really good as well

i really don't know what's up with the bad ones...
