I would bet CCP all the money I don't have that if decks of EVE playing cards were available on the EVE Store (at reasonable shipping rates, of course), they would sell like hotcakes. I thought about this for a while and mulled over some possible ideas:

Alternatively, instead of notable lore figures, the face cards could feature the toon of a developer who plays that race, eg. CCP Guard could be K♦.

If EVE is a PvP game, then Anti-Ganking is emergent gameplay.

I wasn't trolling, just thought of le Pape d'Espace since he's such a key figure in player lore

If anything I would rather see (In)Famous players of each race filling the cards. With sorting by how well known they are of by just randomly assigning them to a card.

If you don't follow the rules, neither will I.

They'd be cool, but for the price of them plus shipping you could buy a hundred normal decks.
