Wow... everyone had a real party hear de-enabling from these "classics". It´s a whole different ball-game de-enabling from decks like these compared to those which nobody´s ever heard of.
Last night I actually wrote out a post de-enabling and felt Id been a bit too nasty about all except the Morgan Greer, so I didn´t post it! (hint for what my choice would be..)
But anyway... Halloween; gimicky. Nobody takes this deck seriously. And neither will your querents. So that´s easy...
Gilded; even with decent, older cardstock it is still tacky. Why do people gush over cards that look like forgettable prog-rock album covers circa 1981? That Lovers card makes me guffaw every time. I just don´t get the Gilded. Everyone says they love it, but try posting one in trading - like I did - and see if anyone will take it off your hands. And besides, the goalposts have moved for photo-collage decks and although the Gilded isn´t strictly a photomontage decks, it has these eerie faces of real people floating oddly beneath pseudo-medieval hats. Then the "pretend" glistening jewels glittering in the borders.
Nothing worse than a deck trying to be sumptuous.
I shall de-enable no more. I don´t want to start my week off ranting, so that will do for now...
