My one problem with E's Ghost deck.

The Ace of Spades.


It is sexy and fabulous by all means, except the pips. The pips on all the cards are all black (the lettering that is) which makes it easy to show the ace of hearts and pretend its another ace. Then you get to the ace of spades and its not the same.


Just needed to rant. Thanks

I actually really like their entire appearance. The ONE thing that is keeping my from using these decks as my main deck is their uncanny ability to inexplicably warp. I have no idea why, but all the Ghosts I've ordered have this weird upward bend to them that even a full week in a Porper will not fix.

And because of this, I'm a Masters kind of guy :)

The thing that keeps me from performing with them all the time is people forget their card is a black or red card because only the smaller pips are red, so they always think it's a black card.

Isn't it being black what it is all about? It's a "ghost" deck so it's meant to be "dead" and "lifeless" and the universal colour for a lifeless object is dull - in this case it's black and no colour at all. If you want colourful decks go for something like these...
If they aren't colourful enough then I don't know what is - and don't ask where you can get them because I don't know.

I think the Ghost deck is beautiful in all aspects. If the fan looks broken because of the ace of spades then do a trick to make it vanish then fan the deck to show its gone that way the ace doesn't spoil the beauty of your fan and you still get to impress all the girls with your card flourishes. As for the people confusing thier card's color don't do tricks that require them to memorize the suit's color instead make them memorize the suit it seslf that way they can asociate the suit with its soppused color like hearts. they think heart they tend to think of red. this what I have been doing and I have yet to have any of the problems you guys are having. Except for the warpping it still has yet to be a magor problem but is annoying.

This is why I believe Masters are the best.

I personally have no issues using Ghost, but I can see your point on the colors.

Black decks just look bad once the edges wear a little and they are suspicious of most people. So I don't use them.

1. Masters
2. Ghost
3. Vipers
4. Tigers
5. Guardians (1st Edition)
6. 1800's

I can only hope that the future will show the Guardians (2nd Edition) at second place or at least 3rd.
 
The only problem I have with using a Ghost deck is, people always assume that it's a trick deck or something, and of course it's not, so you let them examine it. Then when you bring a gimmicked deck along, the deck is un-examinable, so that gives the spectator even more of a feeling that it's a trick deck. Just stating the obvious.
