Very Nice Cards

I like my Black Tigers...I bought a
Black Tiger Invisible Gaff deck, and
with it came a free normal deck of Black
Tigers. I also got another deck of BTs
with my Tally-Ho Vipers for free. I
found that BTs feel really good out of
the box, but wear down quickly and
become sticky, clumping into packets
often. These cards look cool and feel
great when they are first opened, but
don't let the cool appearances fool
you. They crimp up just as easily as a
normal deck of Bikes, and they don't
flatten out like a good deck of
Tally-Ho's would. I like my Black
Tigers, but I would not have payed the 8
bucks for them...I was lucky enough to
catch a few really good deals, and got
mine for free. Overall, they are decent
cards, but not good enough for the
price. My Vipers were the same price,
and I like them a lot more. The vipers
have help up pretty well, and are still
good for handling. Now, my black tigers
are basically for show, and I don't
really get them out of the box that
often. I would not really suggest these
cards next to a normal deck of
Tally-Ho's or even a normal deck of
Bikes (just because you can get almost 3
decks of bikes for the same price as a
deck of Black Tigers), but if you have 8
extra bucks to throw away and like the
look of the cards, they're a great item
to add to your collection.

Just to warn you...Black Tigers are $8+
per a deck, but it just isn't worth it.
I would recommend each person buying a
few decks just to say you handled them.
I will say that these are very cool
looking cards and can be a lot of fun,
but why would I spend that much money on
Black Tigers when I could buy 4 or more
decks of Bikes for the same price? If
you are new and have never owned a deck
of these cards, be sure to buy a
couple...but don't order a ton because
your money can be better spent
elsewhere, either on magic items, XCM
products, supplies, etc. As for magic,
I would not highly recommend these
cards. As soon as your spectator sees
these, they might open their mouth or be
in awe...but the suspicion of a
gimmicked or trick deck is automatically
much higher. Going with the traditional
deck of bikes that everyone recognizes
is a better way to go for magic.
