Literally just purchased 2 of these Decks and did not know they were designed by you! Funny how things come full circle! Love your content and although I'm no magician or cardist, watching your reviews and the attention to detail you provide when talking about cards and tricks is what keeps me coming back to your channel! Keep Up the Amazing Work! P.S. The reason I got these cards is because the leaves theme remind me of my hometown Palm Springs CA, where I grew up all my life! They remind me of the Palm Trees I saw everyday going out and about so you can imagine these are about to become my favorite deck! Much Love!!
8:46 You are such a genuinely wholesome & honorable person Chris Ramsay. I thouroughly appreciate the 1st Playing Cards brand. The creativity & style of it all is just really an inspiration for me🙏 I just want to say thank you & your team there @ the 1st Playing Cards Co.🙏 Your a big part of the reason I first got into Cardistry & Magic & still continue today
Congrats on the new decks Chris! They have one of my favorite looks of any deck I've seen in a while. I have a couple of your older decks (the ones with the red tuck case and the gold foil, sorry I forgot the name haha) and I really like them. I'll probably have to pick up a deck or two of these to add to my ever expanding collection!
Damn Chris you really out did yourself with these, honestly my favorite design I've seen on a deck of cards, the color combination is amazing and i really have a soft spot for greenery and floral patterns. I don't really do much magic or cardistry but I've tried to learn a little small stuff from your videos. Keep up the great work, love you're videos and how enthusiastic you are about what you do!
I am neither a magician or a cardist but I really appreciate the artwork in custom decks. I also find the hard work and the commitment that goes in to producing this artwork, and art form in general inspiring. The time and effort magicians and cardists put in to mastering their craft really shows and the support from the community is amazing! Keep up the awesome work!
Just woke up, saw this video and picked up a brick. Not even a cardist nor a magician, just fell in love with the design. THE best deck I’ve ever seen. Still new to the channel, but love what you do. RESPECT. Keep up the great work. peace, from Tokyo.
The time and effort you put into the 1st playing cards is well appreciated. Having the v1s and v2s. They are works of art that should be cherished by those that have any of the 1st playing cards. Thanks Chris for all the hard work you put into 1st products, decks and clothing and vids, etc..
Your have to love it when such an eye-catching and original deck of cards of such high quality are made available to so many people! Could have gone with a much higher price, but you wanted this to be a deck that most can afford, and perform with in many different contexts. Thank you Chris for staying so true to all of us, while inspiring everyone watching to be open minded and creative.🙏🏼 (Can’t wait to handle these myself when they arrive, by the way.🤩)
A totally "unbiased" review on the deck I restlessly watch the mailbox for! Fitting for my FIRST real deck! Excited to use them to learn some magic and practice with them! You've been a significant inspiration, my dude. I've always been ensconced with magic, but you've given me the final nudge to take the plunge.
Just purchased my first brick of playing cards ever. I’m no magician, but I enjoy playing cards with friends. More importantly, I enjoy the level of taste, craftsmanship, and passion you put into your work. In short time, I’ve become a huge fan. Well done, and thanks for all you do!
Ordered one for use and one to display because I know I'm gonna end up using these all the time once I get my hands on them. Loved the design from the beginning and knowing all the details you focused on just makes this deck 10x better. Keep the great content coming!!
Great job Chris! I am waiting for my deck to be shipped. I can't wait! Unlike most decks, I know that I will love these, even before I have them in my hands. Keep it up good Sir!
Hi Chris, love your video, I want to thank you for being an inspiration, I love your card and puzzle videos and magic tricks, from the start of watching your videos, you've always made me interested in card ticks and have made me want to learn from the very basics on how to craft this skill. Was looking forward to buying the V1 from the start unfortunately they sold out, and people were inflating the prices on eBay. Anyway even though I'm broke I bought the V3 cards, look forward to using them, they look quality, thankyou for your videos they're therapeutic and help me unwind after a stressful day keep up the great work and if I ever manage to successfully do a trick with these cards I shall send a video to you! - Oliver from Manchester UK
been wanting to pick up a 1st deck for a few weeks now since I got into your channel. When I saw this video, I clicked the link and ordered my pack before I even finished watching it. I'm happy to support you man, and if not for your videos, I wouldn't have this cool new hobby. Thanks Chris!
I got started watching your puzzle solving videos, but i have to say that i love watching the card manipulation you do! It is so cool to see! Oh, and i love the new cards!
Just ordered 2 decks. Gotta chase after your dreams! Mine was crazy - drive for Ferrari and it happened! So keep doing what your doing - you have the support of a lot of people. Thanks, Tom OBrien
Neither a Magician or a Cardist. Some wonderful comments about card design, and presentation. As a person with a background of a commercial artist I found this interesting. Thank you for your time and effort on these. Side thought: I would have expected the Kings to hold the Aces of the Suit, The Queens something else; and of course the Jacks to hold still something else. As archaic as it might be maybe the revival of the Knave of the suits might be of interest. The card deck used to go: 10, Knave, Jack, Queen, King. Presumes it may have been ORIGINALLY: Knight, Prince, Queen, King.
I never got a chance to pick up the v1s but have some of the v2s. With all the ink, like Chris was taking about, they clump ever so slightly, barely noticeable and still they're the nicest cards I own. Now with the v3s going back to the white, this is the closest one cab get to the original and yet still seem completely different. Related but different. I'm happy about this!
Hey Ramsey, I'm a young guy who's been collecting playing cards for a few years now, but it was because I started watching you that I decided to really get into playing cards. I just want to thank you for inspiring me, and I will definitely be buying your deck. Cheers!!
I got into you shortly before the release of v1. I bought the CR hat. I bought 3 decks of v2. Now I just bought a brick and I can't be more excited! Keep producing your amazing content!
Absolutely love them. Just ordered a deck. You are the realest youtuber haha „obviously i am gonna say they look great and they feel great, i made them“ but they do really look beautiful.
just got mine v3, love them...But little bit disappointment for no gold bolder like previous V1 and V2. The feel not so premium anymore as previous. Hoping v4 will have gold bolder back again.
I can appreciate the effort you put into each little detail because at the end of the day, we aren't just buying a deck of cards. We are buying an experience. Cards are unique in that they are something we actually use, interact with and bond with. So they already end up holding a higher intrinsic value than a lot of other things. So its highly important for the producer of the cards to put the extra effort into the quality of them, because that enhances the experience. Well done Chris.
I got third in one of my citys talent shows using 1st cards with my act, i see every video you put up and im waiting on the shipping on the V3. Thank you for getting me into magic back in the days.
bought a deck. Missed out on the V1 and V2's, but I'm super stoked to get these ones! You've been one of my best sources for learning card magic and I'm happy to be able to support you. Congrats on another awesome deck!
I did that K❤ with 7♦ trick with the V2s but the spectator saw the 7♦ almost right away. It should be a black instead of red to hide it a little more. I love the design of the V3s. Great choice in design. All 3 versions are awesome. Can't wait to see what you think up next🙌🙌🙌
Someone with an encyclopedic knowledge of playing cards creates their own deck so it is no surprise that it is awesome. Well done Chris, 1st v1 and v2 are always on my desk and I'm looking forward to this one joining them.
These are gorgeous! I love the ferns/plant look with the gold a white! I'm not a cardist nor a magician, but I wanted to pick a couple up anyways. Its like having a piece of art in the form of a deck of cards. I'm super stoked! Also curious if they will arrive potentially by Christmas, but definitely not expecting them to.
Sick-looking Ace o' Spadoodles but frustrated we didn't a closer look. Make it full-screen and you've hooked eye-junkies like me for a guaranteed minimum 90 additional seconds added to viewing duration.
Literally the most beautiful set I have EVER seen. Also wanted to say congrats to your dreams coming true. We all make the decisions and walk the walk every day to accomplish anything we dream, and you are living proof!
Not a cardist....wanted to be a magician ever since I was a kid....30 some years later I'm still a fan of the craft and dabble ever so slightly....and find myself drawn to collecting decks here and there. Have watched you, Chris, for some time now....always enjoy your demeanor and candor. Bought my "1st deck" before the video even finished. Looking forward to when they arrive. Keep on keepin' on CR.
Wow, these cards are so we'll thought out! The intro was quite hypnotic, love it! Thanks for all you share, you add spice to life :) Props to @The minimarie for donating a free deck to @Card Perfect Magician, very cool!
These are crazy good. The gold green and white combo are amazing together and still feels in the with the v1s and v2s. My collection is mostly cheap Bikes for budget reasons so I dont have any 1sts but I still love seeing the releases on youtube and its great seeing decks with a lot of care and attention put in to them (and not... RED CORES!!!)
Hey man just ordered a deck, your videos having been getting me keen to learn magic for my two daughters and couldn't think of a better way to thank you then too start learning with your deck! Keep up the awesome videos mate!
These are hands down my favorite handling deck. I absolutely love the look in person. Super fast shipping and am a very happy customer. I have bricks upon bricks of cards from Orbit to David Blaine’s new Blue Gatorbacks and although those are also great decks this is my favorite of all. I am looking everyday to find out when your V4’s will be released because I will be purchasing at least a brick and a half. The only downside is the V3’s are sold out on your website and I only have a brick and a half left. I’ve heard reviewers say this deck needs to be broken in and they just seem to be copying what Kier Gomes said after eating those spicy Cheetos and then handling the deck. The 3 decks I’ve opened were smooth as butter and do DL and fan etc easily right out of the box. They last forever and the borders were perfect. Love your channel brother!
You got me interested in magic and puzzles, this is the first brick of cards I bought after doing some research and holy cow are they nice!!! better than any deck you can get off of amazon that's for sure. Thanks for doing what you do man!
8:45 I couldn't agree more! It gets tiring when you see what looks cool at first glance but it turns out to be just bicycle cards with a different back, but they are charging more.
I just picked up my very own deck of the “palm” leave 1STs (not solely for the play on words... but as a writer and a nerd as well as a lover of puns, it totally didn’t hurt as a just one more reason of a ton of others to pick up a deck!!! Thanks for creating a beautiful deck that reflects your humor and good heart. Big fan of your channel, terrible cardist, but I started 2 weeks ago, so there’s hope yet, yeah? I did want to thank you because I suffer from dystonia and a few autoimmune diseases that actually left me totally and completely bed-ridden from July-October (still dealing with the fallout of one of the procedures went a bit wrong and the needle ended up hitting a nerve, so back to being trapped in a very nice bed with my wonderful and very patient and understanding mom to help me when I need it.) yeah it’s been something of a year. But the hardest thing about chronic pain with foreseeable end? It’s the stuff that goes on in your brain. Thankfully I stumbled upon your channel as well as the rise magic guys and between your two channels and watching a few others that you all recommend, I’ve been escaping through cards, I mean, I’m utter rubbish, but it’s still fun to try :) and on those good days when I can stand or sit turns out I’m much better at cardistry. Who knew gravity and geometry/some really basic science that wasn’t quite making it to my brain: it’s WAY easier to flip one card to another deck when you have gravity working with you, weird right :) anyway, thank you for bringing some much needed laughs and magic into what’s been a fairly dark time in my health history (I’ve been dealing with whatever the main disease is since I was 14, and I just turned 35 this past Halloween, and while it’s been a long long battle, this past year with being trapped in bed, well it’s been particularly trying.) So: thank you Thank you Thank you. And thank you again for bringing magic into my life as well as a magical new word: cardistry. Which has brought me the perfect distraction when I’m only dealing with the pain and not the dystonia attacks. You really are, along with the other masters of your craft, both magic, and cardists (it’s more of the cardistry that hopefully I can get a bit better at, I mean, I really need to learn how to do a decent spring...and spoiler alert: it’ll definitely take more than the three days like your friend that you called out to challenge him to learn it!) and i really need to figure out how to do a few decent moves like the pressure fan and, after that, the under pressure move because it just looks so very cool😉 Long story short (I know, too late, I’m naturally gregarious, what can I say?, well a lot, obviously!) I love your style and the humor that you bring as well as the shining bright happy joy that just seeps out of you when you see an amazing magic trick for the first time, or when you’re just messing around with cards. It shows that you have so much joy in what you do. So thank you for constantly bringing me magic and joy, and now I have yet another piece of one of the coolest cardistry dudes on the planet since I know how the 1stv3s coming my way (just bought them last night since now it’s tomorrow....whoops.) Thanks Chris, you really are wonderfully entertaining and such a joyful light, and talented. If I didn’t enjoy watching you so much I’d be jealous as heck about your talent and the amazing ink you have!!!! Very jealous about the ink. Love that Harry Potter made it on your body journal. For me, I’m more in the the idea of manifesting words on my body. So while I have two smaller tattoos that mean a lot to me, the largest one I have (my third, but not my last, I think the next one might take a year for me to get it just so) takes up a quarter of my back and is a poem by a 14th C Persian Mystic, Hafiz...thought you’d appreciate it the poem, I got it so I’d never forget to be selfless with love always: “Even after all this time The sun never says to the earth ‘You owe me.’ Look what happens With a love like that, It lights the whole sky.” Who knows? Maybe all of that will inspire another tattoo or a cool new magic trick!! All the best and with great thanks, Hillary
While I do miss the OG 1st playing cards design I have to commend you for taking your brand and changing it while still being unmistakably 1st. Takes guts to do that in today’s market. Wish you all the success with the V3s, already excited to see the V4s
Awesome! This deck looks amazing. I never did any tricks with a cards, but really want to learn some😀 Hope with this deck it will be a good start, so I order one😊
Got my pack today, absolutely gorgeous. Glad you explained the order and the extras, I was definitely confused. (Not demand my money back confused though, wtf at that guy?) Discovered with my tendinitis that attempting to perform cardistry and magic is super difficult, but I'm working on figuring out a solution. Keep on doing your thing man, highlight of my day to see new videos! Cheers from Washington State!
Missed out on v1 and v2, so decided to get a brick and a couple extras! So excited to handle and preform with these cards. Thanks Chris, keep up the awesome content.
Awesome!! Been waiting for these! Ordered!! I have V2, and now V3. Only wish I was around when V1’s came out. Maybe I’ll come across one on eBay one day. 😢
Just recently found your channel. I love watching your puzzle solving video's. How long have you been collecting cards? What is your favorite set of cards? Love the wooden card collector box.
So I stumbled upon your channel a couple weeks ago and am absolutely loving your content. I've always been interested in magic, specifically card magic. Years ago, probably 17 or 18 years ago when I used to bartend I would do some basic card tricks to help earn some extra tips. I was fairly decent I thought, had this one trick where I forced a specific card to them (which I couldn't remember how to force a card for the life of me now) have them write that card down on a piece of paper, light it on fire in an ashtray when when those existed in restaurants and then i would use the ashes to spread on my forearm to "magically" spell out their card. My best trick, actually only did it a couple times lol Anyways watched dozens of your videos over the past couple weeks has reinvigorated me to mess around with cards again. Thanks! I forgot just how much fun this is, hopefully my 42 year old fingers can still manage to handle the cards deftly enough.
Just got mine today and I love them. My only gripe with them is that the gold 1st badge on the backs of the cards aren’t all placed in the same spot so when the deck is squared up you can see they aren’t even Edit: it’s not the gold logos that are in different spots it’s just that the back print itself is crooked. Still love the cards though I love the way they feel
I just ordered a deck, super excited to keep practicing tricks and flourishes. (ive got small hands, it doesnt matter. Its all about practice, just keep at it!)
I've never been a collector of cards but I can say I appreciate the dedication you have with playing cards and the content you put out! I might just have to pick up a set of these just display! Love the content!
I already bought them yesterday right when they came out. I'm really excited for this version of the 1st playing cards! 😀 I can't wait till they arrive...
I got 3 bricks as soon as it dropped, I stayed up till one am( in sg time) the shipping cost me 90 bucks but it sure was worth it. Can't wait to get my hands!!! Thks Chris for making your decks beautiful yet not ridiculously priced. 👍😁
Love the 7D/KH gimmick because even though it might not withstand reasonably prolonged scrutiny, it's SO delightfully entertaining that the audience's shared fun from the reveal''s good-natured "Gotcha!" has greater value than the mystery of the magic. This also suggests that any repeat customers would be LESS likely to interrupt at the beginning with a challenge to see the King of hearts, because it's FAR more likely they'd be reveling in that edgy tension of anticipation - eagerly waiting for a moment they know is coming - when they get to watch THIS crowd experience what they have. Funny how even simple tricks if part of a well-considered interplay with the audience can be such a large part of their overall enjoyment of the entire performance. Maybe not the stunner they remember, but a good part ofthe reason they want to come back for more. Anyway - enough of my thinking out loud (aka rambling) And cool cards, Chris!
Very nice job! Classic and good all around design. I’d love to see you go crazy on one deck design though. Like really do an art piece with one deck eventually.
You guys make my dreams come true
Love your content Chris
Chris Ramsay No problem sir well deserved
Hey man, do you have any episodes on card handling?
Coolest Magician in the game right now
Best cards ever! Great content! Super dope Chris.
Dude, you introduced me to this whole world of magic, puzzles, and playing cards. I'm looking forward to my 2 decks arriving. Cheers!
Same!
SAME im legit getting 2 packs for christmas
@@3ozeooo Nice bro!! Chris is the bomb am I right?
Liefe's Magic For sure
I’m not sure i will ever attempt magic with the 2 packs i ordered, but i know for sure 1 is going in a frame 👌
Beautiful card set, I want oneeeee D:
edit: I agree that's the most beautiful part the combination of White, Green and the Shiny Gold.
Me: damn cool new leaf cards
Chris: "palm leaf"
Me: God damn he got me.
Dang, watching that trailer really made me appreciate the time and effort that goes into all things made by Chris Ramsay
Literally just purchased 2 of these Decks and did not know they were designed by you! Funny how things come full circle!
Love your content and although I'm no magician or cardist, watching your reviews and the attention to detail you provide when
talking about cards and tricks is what keeps me coming back to your channel!
Keep Up the Amazing Work!
P.S.
The reason I got these cards is because the leaves theme remind me of my hometown Palm Springs CA, where I grew up
all my life! They remind me of the Palm Trees I saw everyday going out and about so you can imagine these are about to become my favorite deck!
Much Love!!
Life: save money
Obstacles: Chris with his fist playing card
Ah yes... gotta get them fist playing cards
Ethan Keller yes.......
Gotta..... get.... em........:(
I remember that very first design idea on the private group 😉 glad to see you brought it to life.

Just bought a deck and I’m waiting for it so I can take them to Spain on my Christmas trip! They look awesome!!!
7 of diamonds is my favorite card. I bought a brick of these. It's so cool that the king is holding my card
Enrike Trujillo can I buy a deck off you?
Is there a story why you specificly chose the 7 of diamonds as your fav card?
Definitely my favourite design.
That long of hearts reveal is amazing, it gets amazing reactions Everytime.
My favorite reveal of a card
Congrats on the new decks Chris! They have one of my favorite looks of any deck I've seen in a while. I have a couple of your older decks (the ones with the red tuck case and the gold foil, sorry I forgot the name haha) and I really like them. I'll probably have to pick up a deck or two of these to add to my ever expanding collection!
When are you going to design a puzzle?? We need a Chris Ramsay official.
He already has.
It was a lock box puzzle.
He also has another, metal puzzle with his initials, search his vids and you'll find it
Damn Chris you really out did yourself with these, honestly my favorite design I've seen on a deck of cards, the color combination is amazing and i really have a soft spot for greenery and floral patterns. I don't really do much magic or cardistry but I've tried to learn a little small stuff from your videos. Keep up the great work, love you're videos and how enthusiastic you are about what you do!

I love how much work you put into these decks to make them unique and some of the best cards around. Can't wait to get mine. :D
Just ordered 2 decks. Gotta chase after your dreams!
Mine was crazy - drive for Ferrari and it happened!
So keep doing what your doing - you have the

Now with the v3s going back to the white, this is the closest one cab get to the original and yet still seem completely different. Related but different. I'm happy about this!
No one beats this quality on youtube.......Chris Ramsay is perfection
Honestly, these are the best so far. Brightens up the dour mood in our place where it’s always raining, can’t wait to get my hands on these!!
Hey Ramsey, I'm a young guy who's been collecting playing cards for a few years now, but it was because I started watching you that I decided to really get into playing cards. I just want to thank you for inspiring me, and I will definitely be buying your deck. Cheers!!
I got into you shortly before the release of v1. I bought the CR hat. I bought 3 decks of v2. Now I just bought a brick and I can't be more excited!
Keep producing your amazing content!
Absolutely love them.
Just ordered a deck. You are the realest youtuber haha „obviously i am gonna say they look great and they feel great, i made them“

I’m kidding!!!!!!😂🤣

Chris it is so dope that you considered the handling of the V2s when making this deck. Shows that you really care about this. Cheers!
These are gorgeous! I love the ferns/plant look with the gold a white! I'm not a cardist nor a magician, but I wanted to pick a couple up anyways. Its like having a piece of art in the form of a deck of cards. I'm super stoked!
Also curious if they will arrive potentially by Christmas, but definitely not expecting them to.
Just ordered 4 decks. 2 to play with and 2 to add to my deck collection. Cant wait to get my hands on them. Thanks Chris!
Sick-looking Ace o' Spadoodles but frustrated we didn't a closer look. Make it full-screen and you've hooked eye-junkies like me for a guaranteed minimum 90 additional seconds added to viewing duration.
Already got my deck 🤙🏼
Woah...I'm so mesmerized by how fluid you maneuver the cards in the intro. Will rewatch just to have my mind continuously blown.
Literally the most beautiful set I have EVER seen. Also wanted to say congrats to your dreams coming true. We all make the decisions and walk the walk every day to accomplish anything we dream, and you are living proof!
bought 2 decks... I was gonna get one of the David Blaine decks.... but I love this channel... don't ever stop solving puzzles!!
Not a cardist....wanted to be a magician ever since I was a kid....30 some years later I'm still a fan of the craft and dabble ever so slightly....and find myself drawn to collecting decks here and there. Have watched you, Chris, for some time now....always enjoy your demeanor and candor. Bought my "1st deck" before the video even finished. Looking forward to when they arrive. Keep on keepin' on CR.
I like to see a phone case of that design. Its awesome!
You inspired me to do card magic thanks a lot,
and I hope your future career goes well :)
Wow, these cards are so we'll thought out! The intro was quite hypnotic, love it! Thanks for all you share, you add spice to life :) Props to @The minimarie for donating a free deck to @Card Perfect Magician, very cool!

Damnn that instant focus thooo
These are crazy good. The gold green and white combo are amazing together and still feels in the with the v1s and v2s. My collection is mostly cheap Bikes for budget reasons so I dont have any 1sts but I still love seeing the releases on youtube and its great seeing decks with a lot of care and attention put in to them (and not... RED CORES!!!)
Hey man just ordered a deck, your videos having been getting me keen to learn magic for my two daughters and couldn't think of a better way to thank you then too start learning with your deck!
Keep up the awesome videos mate!
These are hands down my favorite handling deck. I absolutely love the look in person. Super fast shipping and am a very happy customer. I have bricks upon bricks of cards from Orbit to David Blaine’s new Blue Gatorbacks and although those are also great decks this is my favorite of all. I am looking everyday to find out when your V4’s will be released because I will be purchasing at least a brick and a half. The only downside is the V3’s are sold out on your website and I only have a brick and a half left. I’ve heard reviewers say this deck needs to be broken in and they just seem to be copying what Kier Gomes said after eating those spicy Cheetos and then handling the deck. The 3 decks I’ve opened were smooth as butter and do DL and fan etc easily right out of the box. They last forever and the borders were perfect. Love your channel brother!
You got me interested in magic and puzzles, this is the first brick of cards I bought after doing some research and holy cow are they nice!!! better than any deck you can get off of amazon that's for sure. Thanks for doing what you do man!
Literally bought them as soon as I saw the video, didn’t even bother to see the design so FIRE now that I see them!! Great job Chris 👌🏻
8:45 I couldn't agree more! It gets tiring when you see what looks cool at first glance but it turns out to be just bicycle cards with a different back, but they are charging more.
Daaaaang, I ordered my v3s on the 1st (haha), and they're already HERE!!! Beautiful work, Chris, I'm super stoked!
I just picked up my very own deck of the “palm” leave 1STs (not solely for the play on words... but as a writer and a nerd as well as a lover of puns, it totally didn’t hurt as a just one more reason of a ton of others to pick up a deck!!!
Thanks for creating a beautiful deck that reflects your humor and good heart. Big fan of your channel, terrible cardist, but I started 2 weeks ago, so there’s hope yet, yeah?
I did want to thank you because I suffer from dystonia and a few autoimmune diseases that actually left me totally and completely bed-ridden from July-October (still dealing with the fallout of one of the procedures went a bit wrong and the needle ended up hitting a nerve, so back to being trapped in a very nice bed with my wonderful and very patient and understanding mom to help me when I need it.) yeah it’s been something of a year. But the hardest thing about chronic pain with foreseeable end? It’s the stuff that goes on in your brain. Thankfully I stumbled upon your channel as well as the rise magic guys and between your two channels and watching a few others that you all recommend, I’ve been escaping through cards, I mean, I’m utter rubbish, but it’s still fun to try :) and on those good days when I can stand or sit turns out I’m much better at cardistry. Who knew gravity and geometry/some really basic science that wasn’t quite making it to my brain: it’s WAY easier to flip one card to another deck when you have gravity working with you, weird right :) anyway, thank you for bringing some much needed laughs and magic into what’s been a fairly dark time in my health history (I’ve been dealing with whatever the main disease is since I was 14, and I just turned 35 this past Halloween, and while it’s been a long long battle, this past year with being trapped in bed, well it’s been particularly trying.)
So: thank you
Thank you
Thank you.
And thank you again for bringing magic into my life as well as a magical new word: cardistry. Which has brought me the perfect distraction when I’m only dealing with the pain and not the dystonia attacks. You really are, along with the other masters of your craft, both magic, and cardists (it’s more of the cardistry that hopefully I can get a bit better at, I mean, I really need to learn how to do a decent spring...and spoiler alert: it’ll definitely take more than the three days like your friend that you called out to challenge him to learn it!) and i really need to figure out how to do a few decent moves like the pressure fan and, after that, the under pressure move because it just looks so very cool😉
Long story short (I know, too late, I’m naturally gregarious, what can I say?, well a lot, obviously!) I love your style and the humor that you bring as well as the shining bright happy joy that just seeps out of you when you see an amazing magic trick for the first time, or when you’re just messing around with cards. It shows that you have so much joy in what you do.
So thank you for constantly bringing me magic and joy, and now I have yet another piece of one of the coolest cardistry dudes on the planet since I know how the 1stv3s coming my way (just bought them last night since now it’s tomorrow....whoops.)
Thanks Chris, you really are wonderfully entertaining and such a joyful light, and talented. If I didn’t enjoy watching you so much I’d be jealous as heck about your talent and the amazing ink you have!!!! Very jealous about the ink. Love that Harry Potter made it on your body journal. For me, I’m more in the the idea of manifesting words on my body. So while I have two smaller tattoos that mean a lot to me, the largest one I have (my third, but not my last, I think the next one might take a year for me to get it just so) takes up a quarter of my back and is a poem by a 14th C Persian Mystic, Hafiz...thought you’d appreciate it the poem, I got it so I’d never forget to be selfless with love always:
“Even after all this time
The sun never says to the earth
‘You owe me.’
Look what happens
With a love like that,
It lights the whole sky.”
Who knows? Maybe all of that will inspire another tattoo or a cool new magic trick!!
All the best and with great thanks,
Hillary
While I do miss the OG 1st playing cards design I have to commend you for taking your brand and changing it while still being unmistakably 1st. Takes guts to do that in today’s market. Wish you all the success with the V3s, already excited to see the V4s
Awesome! This deck looks amazing. I never did any tricks with a cards, but really want to learn some😀 Hope with this deck it will be a good start, so I order one😊
Could only afford to buy one deck this time, but I love how much you guys put into this. Big fan of Abraham Garcia's work too.
Got my pack today, absolutely gorgeous. Glad you explained the order and the extras, I was definitely confused. (Not demand my money back confused though, wtf at that guy?)
Discovered with my tendinitis that attempting to perform cardistry and magic is super difficult, but I'm working on figuring out a solution. Keep on doing your thing man, highlight of my day to see new videos! Cheers from Washington State!
Missed out on v1 and v2, so decided to get a brick and a couple extras! So excited to handle and preform with these cards. Thanks Chris, keep up the awesome content.
Awesome!! Been waiting for these! Ordered!! I have V2, and now V3.
Only wish I was around when V1’s came out.
Maybe I’ll come across one on eBay one day. 😢
I love to watch you. You got me into collecting decks. I may have a small collection but I'm getting there
Just recently found your channel. I love watching your puzzle solving video's. How long have you been collecting cards? What is your favorite set of cards? Love the wooden card collector box.
I love version 3, im also glad that they have green. This design is a keeper, kinda looks like falcons color scheme a bit too.
So I stumbled upon your channel a couple weeks ago and am absolutely loving your content. I've always been interested in magic, specifically card magic. Years ago, probably 17 or 18 years ago when I used to bartend I would do some basic card tricks to help earn some extra tips. I was fairly decent I thought, had this one trick where I forced a specific card to them (which I couldn't remember how to force a card for the life of me now) have them write that card down on a piece of paper, light it on fire in an ashtray when when those existed in restaurants and then i would use the ashes to spread on my forearm to "magically" spell out their card. My best trick, actually only did it a couple times lol Anyways watched dozens of your videos over the past couple weeks has reinvigorated me to mess around with cards again. Thanks! I forgot just how much fun this is, hopefully my 42 year old fingers can still manage to handle the cards deftly enough.
Just got mine today and I love them. My only gripe with them is that the gold 1st badge on the backs of the cards aren’t all placed in the same spot so when the deck is squared up you can see they aren’t even
Edit: it’s not the gold logos that are in different spots it’s just that the back print itself is crooked. Still love the cards though I love the way they feel
I just ordered a deck, super excited to keep practicing tricks and flourishes. (ive got small hands, it doesnt matter. Its all about practice, just keep at it!)
I'm in love. If I wasn't a broke college student I'd totally get one! 😭 I would use these on every one of my videos!
Send me your mailing address and I'll send you one for free. Find me on Instagram maybe_baby_27
@@muh-reeasmr7515 very cool 😎
Is 15.00 really that much
are you getting a deck sent to you for free? if so, thats lovely!
@@tuckerwhite2533 for someone who goes to a school with $35,000 tuition per year? Yeah.
I've never been a collector of cards but I can say I appreciate the dedication you have with playing cards and the content you put out! I might just have to pick up a set of these just display! Love the content!
My mouth literally started drooling as soon as I just saw the thumbnail definitely coping broski
I sadly missed out on the first 2 versions but just got 2 of these v3's. Super stoked! Beautiful deck Chris, cograts on everything🤘
Magic is life, life is magic! Your decks are amaizing! They are the FIRST deck that I really love !
I already bought them yesterday right when they came out. I'm really excited for this version of the 1st playing cards! 😀 I can't wait till they arrive...
I want one so bad!!! Thank you so much, Chris, for showing the way to cardistry :) I can't wait to get one of your decks!!!!
the intro and the cards look absolutely dope
I have all of your decks so far and I cant wait to get this one. They are fantastic feeling cards and beautiful.
I love the card review videos, mostly on how Chris presents the cards in the intro 🙆🏻♂️
love that you are foiling up the court cards! been waiting for that ever since i got my 1st 1st deck
I got 3 bricks as soon as it dropped, I stayed up till one am( in sg time) the shipping cost me 90 bucks but it sure was worth it. Can't wait to get my hands!!! Thks Chris for making your decks beautiful yet not ridiculously priced. 👍😁
I just bought these and they are sooooo frreeeaaaaaking coooool especially the gold foil inside the tuck case and at the edges of each card
Love the 7D/KH gimmick because even though it might not withstand reasonably prolonged scrutiny, it's SO delightfully entertaining that the audience's shared fun from the reveal''s good-natured "Gotcha!" has greater value than the mystery of the magic. This also suggests that any repeat customers would be LESS likely to interrupt at the beginning with a challenge to see the King of hearts, because it's FAR more likely they'd be reveling in that edgy tension of anticipation - eagerly waiting for a moment they know is coming - when they get to watch THIS crowd experience what they have.
Funny how even simple tricks if part of a well-considered interplay with the audience can be such a large part of their overall enjoyment of the entire performance. Maybe not the stunner they remember, but a good part ofthe reason they want to come back for more.
Anyway - enough of my thinking out loud (aka rambling) And cool cards, Chris!
I STARTED WATCHING THIS CHANNEL CAUSE I LIKE THE PUZZLES AND NOW YOU INSPIRE ME TO TRY CARD TRICKS LOVE YOUR CONTENTS
And I didn't expected you would upload today. Thank you!
I didn't expect one today either, but I knew if there was a video, that it'd be this. Still wasn't let down though. I need a deck.
Can't wait to get mine. By the way, that Faro in slow mo was so satisfying to watch. Congrats on your V3 project.
Just bought 2 packs design is insane and I really want to get good with cards. Encouraging you at the same time is even better. Cheers de Québec !
Very nice job! Classic and good all around design. I’d love to see you go crazy on one deck design though. Like really do an art piece with one deck eventually.
Congrats on your new pack...subtle colours and faces on each card...you done good bud 😆🙃💜
