Thank you for the lovely grovel....you were just off your center. Musta been too much coffee or too little coffee or a flurry of allergies or something like that. Come on back out of the corner, cutie, and say awful things about some wretched excuse for a deck.
Maybe the Paulina? What were they
thinking? Baaad wispy art and all the cards look the same.
Sravana gets up off her knees, after lying prone kissing Mags' feet all afternoon.
Whew. Glad that's over with!
Now - de-enabling the Paulina?
Oh, PLEASE.
How do they all manage with those weeds in their hair?
Not to mention, all those birds have to poop somewhere. You know all about birds and pooping? They don't *care* where they poop. They poop massively, all the time. Now look at all the pooping birds in this deck.
Lots and lots of scribbling. Every card looks exactly the same! Pointy chins, ears and lots of bed head.
Justice = XI.
Hanged man in a clown suit? Star in a tutu?
Hm. I like the Moon card. That would be the only one. Except for that fox/cat mutant creature in the foreground.
Oh god look at the Sun card. So syrupy sweet that I'm going into insulin shock!!!1!1!!
Judgment makes ZERO sense.
The World is a masked mermaid with a pooping bird on her head? WTH? - NO - **2** pooping birds.
What is that Thing on the 6/wands?
Okay - multi-legged steed of some avian type on the Knight/Wands - I *swear* I saw that done much more convincingly in the Universal Fantasy deck.
Okay. I can't bear looking at this abomination any more.
Extremely fussy, scribbly cards with a v. high sameness factor. No sense of elements - birds and butterflies in most suits, along with mutant dog/cat/dinosaur/reptilian creatures. I didn't see any bears. If you're going to have animals, you must have bears! and frogs! and and and elephants having sex in the missionary position!
oops. that was the Roots of Asia deck. My bad...
Sravana's judgment on the Paulina deck? 1 1/2 stars. Not to mention it's USG, right? I bet it has that super crappy lamination, and print quality that pixilates all that scribbly detail. You'll need a magnifying glass, and even then the details won't be apparent because of the bad printing. You'll know what your vision will be like when you hit 45-50 - NO CLOSE FOCUSING ALLOWED.
Sravana's recommendation? Wait for the full Mary El. It has gravitas. And it's not cute. And it damned well better have an alternate Hierophant card, because I can't abide the one that's shown on the website.
