You're right, I hadn't even noticed before I saw Laito's post, so sorry!

Hehe no need for sorry, I was confused by your comment and didn't know if i was understanding it correctly.

Chaos has arrived.

I ordered one Bestiary, one Pandemonium, and one coin. I received the Christmas Bestiary variant, aka Emerged.

Do you feel like you got value paying 40$ or 50$ for Pandemonium. I can't get past some of his ambitious prices.

I purchased an early bird bundle, so I didn't pay that much. Gio is one of my favorite creators and his prices don't really give me hesitation, but maybe I've become complacent.

It depends on the campaign. Sometimes I only buy the basic deck(s), but often I will go for the bundle even if I don't want everything in it. Either way, if I decide later on that I want the deluxe deck(s), he has many sales every year and I can use my additional Patreon discount. I've "upgraded" like that on several occasions.

I guess it was only 37-38 without shipping (if any) for the Pandemonium deck in the eb pair. Still a lot for what it is imo. Glad you're enjoying them. I like his style and designs too, I just don't see the cards being worth that much but we all see different things. Chaos

If I have the capacity, I try to do so. Saves people a click sometimes.

It is funny how we read things differently. I thought the word 'promotion' instead of review had a negative connotation.

No, I know. But I know how to navigate JazzBaloo

Maybe you're joking, but I don't appreciate being called a cult member because I support an artist on Patreon.

It's just my nickname to TWI's Patreon (inspired from Devotion series) - never meant it in a bad way in the first place. I've been saying this a few times, and you are the first to get "triggered" by it.

It is a promotion. Think of it positively or negatively if you want. Navigate it in a way that works for you. Wasn't highly cryptic that needed deciphering and the 3 word post certainly wasn't anything to be bothered by. Sleep well and please don't be insulted.

Exactly, there you go. Whatever brings you happiness so much in so without the misfortune of others. Could you clarify which part of the post was a review? I only saw the link of where to purchase, pictures and even the deck specs(in-depth part) that appeared to be taken directly from the marketing pics of the twi site.

If time be of all things the most precious, wasting time must be the greatest prodigality.

Indeed. I wonder what brought that on. Was it the chicken or the egg... have a good day Sir

In the context of another user's constant negativity, it came across badly. Your use of triggered in quotes is offensive in itself. The acceptable response to someone saying you offended them, even if you didn't mean to, is "I'm sorry".

Looks like Gio has made a card game to go along with this deck series:

And that adds one to the Chaos series list

Thanks for sharing!
This was not officially "released" yet, wait my future updates for more info.

I confirm there is a new Chaos deck called "Nameless" that can be preordered, even without purchasing the game.
It has new artwork

I hope you'll like it!

More monsters, no doubt! Hopeful to see Cerberus x3

Chaos Nameless is now live

I love the clean simplistic illustration style of TWI decks. I own just a few of them, but I was wondering if they ever produced a basic playing card deck that uses traditional court illustrations in this simple style. Anyone know?

https://52plusjoker.org/product/2025-cl ... ndustries/ (Need to be a member and logged in to buy)

the 52+ deck definitely counts but how about egoism

https://www.thirdwayindustries.com/prod ... ory/egoism



Fantasma is sort of a spooky standard



ectoplasm being the most "normal" variant

https://www.thirdwayindustries.com/prod ... -ectoplasm

Looks like it already got covered but Exquisite Fortuna and the 52+J 2025 decks are what you are looking for. Egoism would be close but depends how custom you are trying to get.

Hello! As others have mentioned, Egoism, Fantasma, and Moonbound are fairly standard. I would also mention Obsession and Casino Paradiso. Many other decks are inspired by standard French cards (for example, Omnia).
Heartless, Chaos, and Delirium are also standard-ish, but feature monsters and demons.

Exquisite Fortuna features standard EPCC courts — I did not design those. I only designed the card back, the tuck box, and the Jokers.

Thank you very much for the incredible support on Chaos!
