Calling Black Deck Owners

Postby leighton » May 2nd, '06, 18:11



Hello peeps,

Ok some of you own Black Tiger / Viper / Ghost decks, some of you cups sufferers will own all three. My question is: Black Tiger which is the, best Red pips or White pips? What about the Viper Deck and Ghost deck.

Can someone upload a quality photo of the cards/decks for me to see, because no web site has any decent pics? and I must have some new cards!

I made my wife dissapear just by arguing with her!!!

They are all nice decks but my favourite is the Tigers with all white pips followed by Ghosts.

I find that the Tigers and Ghosts have a common feel to them whilst the Vipers have a different feel.

Does anyone have any routines where they combine the different types of cards such as Tigers and Ghosts? I know that the Ellusionist web site ads say that there are effects that combine the red pipped and the white pipped Tigers.

Ghosts Leighton, again and again.

Tigers are great but the black seems to rub off them if used to excess in my experience. I do love my ghosts though, and seem to get better reactions with them...

When am I not? :wink:

Black ghosts are rare, promotional packs issued by Ellusionist, they cost alot of money (i've seen some for £20). They're basically negative versions of Ghosts.

Ghost deck gets my vote. I have a Tiger and my friend as a Ghost and I must say, the Ghost definitely felt a lot different to the Tiger when it's opened for the first time. I think the Ghost is a little stiffer also.

I couldn't do Jumping Gemini properly on the Ghost deck on the first try. Just real slippery. Either that, was a little too cautious not to bend my friends deck when holding the cards. :P

I haven't used the Viper yet but from what I read on ellusionist.com, the Ghost deck is better either way.
