Smoke & Mirrors V9 - Orange

Finally got my hands on the V9 orange after a decade of waiting, and the card stock feels just as crisp and durable as the V4 era I remember. The throwback design details are spot on, and the small batch makes them feel extra special to open.

Hunting these down for years after missing the original V4 run, and this reprint feels spot on. The card stock has that familiar, slightly stiff finish that breaks in beautifully after a few shuffles. Orange is even more striking in person than in the photos.

Waited almost ten years for this reprint and it did not disappoint. The matte finish and crisp printing on the orange backs feel exactly like the V4s I used to obsess over, and the batch size makes them feel special to actually open.
