In 2017, award winning GOLDEN OATH playing cards was released: The first deck ever printed exclusively with hot stamped foils, which now is almost impossible to find. Before the final printing Lotrek had printed a limited run of 50 prototype decks that are slightly different from the final version: The stock is embossed on the faces' side, the back design has a red border around the gold frame -which in the final version was gone- and the varnish is also different.
The decks are in a plain red stock tuck case, hand numbered and signed.
Printed together with GOLDEN OATH, this was a 50 deck print that was done on blue pearlescent stock with silver and gold foil on the back design. Comes in a Carat case, numbered and signed.

Daniel Madison and Chris Ramsay have teamed up to bring you one of the most elegant and high quality decks to ever come out of the USPCC. A crushed stock, coupled with a smooth finish and traditional cut, make this deck feel as good as it looks.
The Knight:
It's the most devastating and unpredictable piece on the board. Unlike the Bishop, Rook or even the Queen, the Knight isn't bound by what surrounds it. It is the only piece capable of escaping its opponents by leaping over them.
"I Believe Every Chess Player Senses Beauty..."
