From encarded.com:

The First Edition of the Encarded Standard deck features a metallic blue back and a 70's vintage-inspired, top loading tuck box with silver foil and embossing details.

Printed by the Expert Playing Card Company (the same printer as the amazing Zenith deck), the Standards feature the perfect borders, smooth edges and amazing handling customary to every EPCC deck.

This first edition is a small run, with less than 2500 decks available from Encarded and roughly 500 more available exclusively from Conjuring Arts. 

Once this First Edition sells out, we will design an entirely new box and release a new deck color so that we always have a great, affordable and usable deck in stock. This classic blue will always be the first, so be sure to get some of this limited run while you can!

The first deck we call Ascendant. Its design incorporates all the refinements that we have learned over the years and mixes those with the organic symmetry first seen in Tendril. The colors are bold, the borders are intense, the faces are dark and the level of detail has been increased.

The box is printed on a soft-touch matte black paper with incredible metallic green details and subtle gloss black foil tendrils. This deck was printed by USPCC in a limited run of less than 5,000 and will never be reprinted.

To reward our early backers with a small perk, the first 500 Ascendant and first 500 Nightfall decks will feature a custom numbered, holographic circular seal on the back of the deck, on the cellophane. It will be positioned so that you can easily open the top of the cellophane and use the deck, keeping the numbered seal intact. We will make an effort to generally give lower numbers to the earliest backers, and will aim to give \"matched pairs\"" whenever possible."

Tendril: Nightfall playing cards are a mirror of the original from 2012. The original Tendril deck was designed as if you were in the tropical rainforest, peering up at the sun through the natural habitat. Nightfall is that same view, but time-shifted to the evening, when the moon is glowing and the light is cool and dark.

The box features deep blue metallic foil, debossed accents and vibrant color artwork.

LIMITED EDITION OF 2,500. INDIVIDUALLY INSPECTED, SIGNED AND NUMBERED. WRAPPED IN GOLD FOIL AND SEALED IN A UNIQUE SIDEWAYS BOX.
