 Hey everybody, welcome back to Magic Orthodoxy. My name's David and this is a deck review. Hey, today we're going to look at the Bicycle Mariner deck from the United States Playing Card Company. What is mariner? Well, it kind of sounds a lot like, you know, boating, waterway, that kind of stuff, but actually the mariner deck is inspired by fashion trends. This deck features a nautical theme like you would expect, but it's been a little reinvented. It has a unique and classic cardback design, but it still takes on a modern feel. The original cardback incorporates fantastic nautical chart details like the central diamond shape you see there, compass insignias, there's sun, dial-inspired corner elements, and there's just a whole bunch more. I mean, just look at it. It's just totally detailed. All of this is influenced by the beaming colors and patterns shown during Fashion Week. So they've kind of taken the mariner concept and then married it with Fashion Week, and you're getting the mariner deck from the United States Playing Card Company. This deck is available in red and blue, and they did something really interesting with the colors. The hearts and diamond suits are red or blue to match the deck color, and the spades and club suits are black in both red and blue decks. The front of the tuck case does say Bicycle Playing Cards and has the mariner symbol there, and it says mariner there at the bottom. It says Air Cushion Finish made in the USA. Air Cushion Finish made in the USA. The bottom has ad copy. The top has a tuck seal. The back is the back design of the cards, and that is pretty much it for the tuck case. Let's take a look at these cards. So because this is an off-the-shelf bicycle deck, of course it's going to be the retail stock. It is retail stock, so it's kind of a medium weight. It doesn't feel too thin, doesn't feel too thick, has some snap to it. It's a nice handling deck. The back design of the cards features a fantastic nautical detail. You have that central diamond shape there. You've got compass insignias. You have the sundial-inspired corner elements. There's a whole lot more. Lots to look at. Really beautiful. This makes a really attractive fan and a really cool looking spread. With this deck, you're going to get two standard bicycle jokers. They're both full-size, so there's no guaranteed joker, but one is black and white, and the other one is done in the red and blue colors of the Mariner deck. Your Ace of Spades has the same Mariner symbol there in the center, and it's done in red and black. The Pips and Indicee cards are going to be completely recognizable. They're classic. They're standard. They're what you'd expect from a bicycle. The Bicycle Mariner deck is available in red back and blue back, and they did something really interesting with the colors. The hearts and diamond suits are red and blue to match the deck color. So you can see that they're classic quartz, but they've all been recolored.
