From the experts.
It’s a promising project. Executed well and kept sustainable, it could be something genuinely impressive.
I think it’s a brilliant initiative for the community, and it looks very well designed to boot.
Really cool to see initiatives like this because lord knows we need it. Information about moves is just so scattered.
Freshly added to the archive.
Ferris is a simple twirl that can lead into more twirls and combos. Published for the first time in D&D's youtube channel in 2014.
Kroma Cut is a basic one handed cut created by Jano Slap. The move itself strips off two packets from the main deck, and then rotates the packet to put it back in line with the deck.
Rainbow Spring is a variation of the Spring, which springs cards in a rainbow-like arc. The move was first officially presented in his YouTube video THROUGH SILK (WKC 2013/2014).
Description 7-packet Namnlos is a variation of the normal 5-packet Namnlos cut created by Birger Karlsson. First Digital Appearance The first YouTube appearance of this cut was on the 14.04.2018 in a tutorial video by School of Cardistry. However, earlier appearances on other platforms may exist. Etymology Same as for 5-packet Namnlos. Additional Information 22 days before the official tutorial, School of Cardistry released the trailer for their new Broken Borders deck. The following weeks, they released a total of 14 tutorials featuring several cardists to showcase their newly released deck.
Description Namnlos is a simple 5-packet display, similar-looking to Spin Doctor, but slightly easier (something on the difficulty of Five Faces of Sybil). It was created by Birger Karlsson some time before November 2013. First Digital Appearance The first YouTube appearance of this move was on 16.11.2013 in a tutorial video on Birger Karlsson's own YouTube channel. However, earlier appearances on other platforms may exist. Etymology The name comes from the Swedish word "namnlös", which literally translates to "nameless" or "no name", which has been a reoccuring theme in Birger Karlssons move lists. Additional Information In 2018, the YouTube Channel School of Cardistry uploaded a dedicated tutorial, featuring Birger Karlsson himself, of a more advanced version of the cut with 7 packets instead of 5, also showcasing their newly released Broken Borders playing cards.
