Hey guys, I got my Arrcos from a friend in the mail the other day, and I've had a chance to mess around with them, so here are my thoughts.
Backs
Love them. I think everybody has seen these backs. They look fantastic for magic, flourishing, heck they even look great all over the floor when I drop them practicing Pandora. They have a very classy look, and I feel like a million bucks using them. Maybe not that much, but I feel like I could own large sums of money. Yeah...
Faces
These are not normal faces. They were never redesigned, so they still have that old style look to them. I'm not positive, but they could be the same faces as Studs. Or very similar. I really like them.
Handling
For Magic
Damn, these are nice. They are incredibly smooth, and sleights just seem to work themselves out. The stock is fairly thin, making doubles and triples less noticeable. Also, the backs make watching magic with these more enjoyable.
For Flourishing
Although these are decent for flourishing, they are much more a magician's deck. The finish makes them a bit slippery, and they don't hold together that well. I'm going to use these for flourishing, but I'll definitely have to get used to the feel.
Overall
Great cards. For the price you can find them (I got mine for less than 3.50 each), they are definitely worth shelling out a few bucks. I'll definitely be picking up more of these.
