 Hey everybody, welcome back to Magic Orthodoxy. My name is David and this is a deck review. Hey, today we're going to look at the mythical deck from Jump Around. What the mythical deck is, is it's a deck of cards that kind of pays tribute to four different mythology trees. Yet Greek mythology, Norse mythology, Egyptian mythology and Slavic mythology and we'll get into that as we look at the cards. This is a current Kickstarter campaign right now on Kickstarter. If you're watching this video, you can check out the mythical Kickstarter right now from Jump Around. And so it's their hope that this deck is funded and this deck is printed. There is also a stretch goal. This is the classic deck. It's done in this black color and muted gold. And then there's also an old world deck that's done more in like the parchment colors. Still has kind of like this burnt umber tone to it and then like like I said like this parchment feel. So these two decks, the classic deck, the current deck that is currently funding and then the old world deck that is of course their stretch goal. Like I said, this deck is a complete overhaul. Every single card has been touched. Every single face has been redrawn. All the character cards like the Jax Jokers Queens, they're all unique and original to this deck. They all represent various figures from the mythological trees that they represent. They also have very unique backgrounds. We'll talk about that in a second. Every one of the suits also has a unique rune that's associated with it as far as the Aces and the Pipsco. And we'll look at that and we'll see things like the Omega Symbol, Thor's Hammer, Neolimer, and the Egyptian Ankh just to name a few. Just take a look at the tuck ace. It says mythical across the front. It's kind of done in a Norse rune type font. It says mythical on the sides, both sides there, and the bottom says produced by Jumperon. You kind of have some Celtic bands there on the top and then the back design of the tuck ace is the back design of the cards. Currently this, this is a prototype deck so it doesn't really have a deck seal on it. Currently we don't know who the printer is going to be. I think right now the designers are looking at a couple different options and they will notify any of their backers through their campaign page as to which company they decide to go with. The old world tuck ace is exactly the same. It's just done in a different color. Like I said before, this is a prototype deck so we're not going to get into all the natures of the paper stock with the thickness of the cut. That's going to be determined later. So a prototype deck is not indicative of the final product. The back design as you can see is done in kind of Gaelic kind of Norse feel. It's got circles there on the top and bottom very similar to a deck of writer backs. But then you kind of have this almost Celtic cross kind of image that's repeated on the top and bottom and then you have some frames that are going out from that center design. It is a black bordered deck. Black bordered deck and the faces of the cards are white and so that's just something to consider when thinking about backing this deck. Every single card in this deck has been redesigned and redrawn and all of the pips also have been redesigned and so this is what the hearts look like and they represent Greek mythology. This symbol here kind of looks like a spade but this is the clubs so this is the clubs and this represents Egyptian mythology. Here is your diamond pip and this represents the Slavic people and lastly your ace of spades which the aces represents Norse mythology. All right so I want to go through the cards real quick and give you a close-up look at some of the really beautiful artwork that's in the mythical deck and we'll go through the courts and just give you an idea of some of the gods and goddesses that are represented there. All right so one of the cool things about the illustrations in this deck is that every character card has a unique background as well. Okay so the illustration is laid on top of this gold artwork that kind of describes the gods environment. You're going to see that throughout so these are the hearts. These represent Greek mythology so here you have Zeus and you can see that his background is the sky and this is Aphrodite and her background is the shell you know from the famous painting and this is the jack this is Poseidon and his background is the sea. Here you have the spades these represent Norse mythology so your king is Odin of course and your queen is Hell and your jack is Thor. These are your clubs they represent Egyptian mythology this would be my favorite. Here you have the king he's raw and you have the queen this is Isis and of course the jack is Horus. All right so here you have the diamonds this represents Slavic mythology all right and the king is Dasbag the queen is Lada and the jack is Velis. Your two jokers are both original and each one unique they both represent different deities also and so this one here this is Apollo and this one here is Braji. There's a gold watermark here in the back of all the cards and I wanted to point that out it does make the faces a one-way face but this is also a symbol that kind of represents the culture okay so for the hearts like we said this is Greek mythology this is the omega symbol all right and these are the spades this represents mythology in the Norse and so this is Mjolnir this would be Thor's hammer and this is the ankh that is represented and indicative of Egyptian mythology and then lastly we have Slavic mythology and this is Samargo. All right so that is my review for the mythical deck from Jump Around and if you'd like to back this you can head on over to Kickstarter and find it and become a backer supporter right now
