Dead Decks

Harry and Richard are 2 cardboard enthusiasts with an affinity for the dead card games. We came to age in the 90s and as such so does much of our focus.

We are two guys who love cardboard. We tend to enjoy the more obscure and unloved games. You won't see much MTG or Pokemon on our channel. Discussions, pack/box openings, reviews and more.

So, Dark Age: Feudal Lords had 2 Promos. Clergy Ann was found in Guardians Necropolis packs. Where did the Efficiency Bot come from?

Sometimes "fuck" is warranted in a conversation. This is that moment.

We are still alive and kicking. We post weekly on YouTube, just rarely anywhere else. We should probably use Twitter (X) and Facebook more, but man, that's something like work. Wishing everyone a Happy New Year! Here's to chasing the dead card games!

@CcgVintage I mean....they did kinda kill themselves ;)

[Dead Decks @dead_decks]

We are our usual vulgar selves as we open a box of Sorcery: Contested Realm. In between the vulgarity, we did manage a couple of massive pulls!

Thanks to @DarkscreenGames and François von Orelli for an amazing Kickstarter TCG. Very well done! Our only regret is that we didn't buy more.

Richard discovered a previously unknown dead CCG recently called The Last Great War. It was produced by Alan Feinstein of 80's mail order Grenada stamp fame. The game was based on another property he created called Aliens Among Us.

We gave last rites to a few of our newly fallen games: Polywog, Maelstrom and Genesis. May you rest well in the card sleeves of our hearts.

We are just starting an indie/homebrew segment where we are opening a ton of Game Crafter packs and starter decks from a slew of different games. Here is our first entry: SBC Tag Team, Wrath of Cores and Arcana

@johnzinser @LPeterschmidt @CCGHistory We appreciate the info and for the reply! History loves to rhyme.

[Dead Decks @dead_decks]

Anyone have any data on print runs from any 1990s CCG's that aren't MTG, Pokemon or Yugioh? We are interested in how rare some of the rare cards really are. @johnzinser @LPeterschmidt @CCGHistory

[Dead Decks @dead_decks]

@johnzinser @LPeterschmidt @CCGHistory Thanks, John. Any idea if that was a rough standard for the industry back then? Hyborian Gates got us thinking about this over the weekend in relation to the amount of product still available (even by the case) but the lack of the extremely rare card Ancient Gate (1:1000 packs)

Let's make it 2 tweets in a minute: We dive into some grading statistics and *SHOCKER*, #pokemon dominates the pro grading scene (PSA, CCG). Don't worry BGS, you still have #mtg for some reason.
