Solid video man, very entertaining. Quality is on point!!

[@koubekmarek1668]

In my opinion collaboration with Chris Ramsay ar Shin Lim is a really good idea, also i'm happy to see Alex Pandera on this channel, because I really like his sleight of hands.

[@omkarprabhu777]

That sneak peak of Asad and Dan & Dave got me even more excited for your coming up videos 🔥🔥

[@justinlopez4906]

id love to see you colaborate with Chris Ramsay or Xavier Spade

[@lindseyharvey7285]

Hope this series gives your channel the well deserved and proper growth. I think it's a great idea that can reap you great rewards.

[@wolfgangbuck841]

All of y'all are so cool! Thank You GWake and Alex! Yall rock!

[@MaxDiamond]

So happy for you man! You're killing it. I can't wait for this new series

[@jorimsim]

The quality has gone up so much! Thank you so much for all these well produced reviews! I'd love to see Chris Ramsay and Patrick Kun on here

[@tcijames]

This is great content! So good to see some longer-form content where you get to know other Magicians and have a dialogue about cards/performing

[@luckyonelovestodance]

just got myself a deck. i love magic and love collecting different types of cards. im glad i found this channel and have enjoyed learning new tricks from Alex as well.

[@severedmetal]

It was cool meeting you out in San Diego. Thank you for your time. True gentleman. This video was great and feels fresh. Maybe Patrick Kun would be a great addition. The new deck looks awesome too. Keep it up!

[@benf6625]

Loved this new format! I always enjoy whenever we can get a peak behind the curtain and see inside the minds of some of our favorite creators. As for other people I'd like to see videos with, perhaps Brian Brushwood or Chris Ramsay (with his new First V2 cards being released, it would be interesting to bring him back after his cameo in the First V1 review :) Only feedback I have for this episode is that the camera seemed to be changing focus near the end and made the image look a bit jumpy. No big deal, just something I noticed. I look forward to seeing what else you have in store for us, good sir!

[@mariosamsungs3]

Great job brother! Cannot wait for future episodes from this series. GO-TO channel for deck reviews for sure.

[@ShawnBirss]

GREAT video. REALLY looking forward to seeing the whole series, AND your new deck. Congratulations, Wakester!

[@dv9750]

This was a treat!! I am a huge fan of the NOCs, Alex P seems to be a good person and hope he does more high quality decks, but stay simple. I would like to see you collaborate with Ramsay and Madison! This would be awesome to see. Gentleman Wake, you have opened my eyes to new decks to add to my new collection. Thank You for the time you put in!!!

[@BlenderPoint]

I loved the additional blank card and extra Queen... I have always been a follower of Alex. Thanks Gentleman Wake for featuring Alex for the tutorial along with the review hope we will be able to see you collaborate with Chris Ramsey and Shin Lim someday. Loved every bit of the 19 mins.

[@joelorenzo5543]

thanks for the offer on FORT NOC . Cant wait for your cards to come out!!

[@antihiro]

Fantastic video. So awesome to see Pandrea on your channel. Amazing collab. Thanks to both of you for the review, interview and trick. Incredible lighting job too. Just perfect. For the next one, how about Ian Frisch and a book review of Magic is Dead!

[@reanimation777]

Chris Ramsay has high standards for photography and cinematography; your collab would be the pinnacle of both playing card and KZbin creator's world. Greatly appreciate this series of interviews with prominent figures in the business. The chance to get behind their mindset is extremely valuable and informative!

[@frankiecuvin]

Always loved seeing your workand you make decks of card which are static in camera to something cinematic. It doesn't matter who you collab with, I'll always be here watching your videos and supporting your channel. And I blame you sir for my ever growing deck collection

[@jakebevington7319]

Amazing episode!! Only the best from you as always. Got 3 of the fort noc thanks to your link

[@startedskating86]

I'd never even considered playing cards to be interesting until I somehow stumbled upon one of your videos and now I've got a small collection started of around 12 decks now. I really enjoy your videos and your enthusiasm is contagious. I have started to learn a bit of magic and cardistry. Cherry Casino Tahoe Blue are my favourites so far but my small collection will probably double in the next few weeks it's very addictive. As for a collaboration maybe The Russian Genius

[@alfieyeow559]

Congrats on making ur own deck!! So hyped for it!! I really want to see you work on a deck with Alex Pandrea I feel like it will be interesting to see u guys mix ur styles. Amazing vid as always Keep it up!!!

[@thunderstruck3030]

Oh god so hyped for the parlor deck!!! You should keep the collabs it seems like a very cool way to learn more about the ideas behind the decks and i wish you could talk to Daniel Madison he has a very unique style in storytelling and creating his decks

[@Rxvery]

Hey @TheGentlemanWake ! Loved this collab with Alex Pandrea , super stoked to see your channel growing and gaining the popularity it deserves! I would love to see a future collab with Chris Ramsay and Xavior Spade ! Much love and I look forward to your kickstarter campaign as well as your future projects ! ❤

[@muneebchaudhri1882]

Solid video!! And the prototype looks incredible!! It looks like you added that missing color to a beautiful design like you've always wanted to see from all those theory11 decks that you've reviewed!! And I would love to see you and TheCardist collaborate to review a few decks!!

[@81jdunn]

Really like the tuck case of your cards. I can’t wait to support you!

[@choppy2468]

Wow probably my favorite episode to date!!👍Alex Pandrea is one of my favorite magicians/cardist/card designers. I thought I saw a dan and Dave clip so I'm gonna say the December boys or if possible Jackson Robinson!! Another fantastic video 👍🤩

[@Cardistian]

One of the best videos yet Mr. Gentlemen Wake😁👏👍👍👍👍👍 For me that is obviously because this is the announcement for the upcoming new 'Parlour' deck & in NAVY BLUE! Ohh man I cant wait that is going to be one of the best NEXT BIG THINGS coming up. *Immediately I thought of Chris Ramsay when your question of feed back for possible future collabs w/other great modern day Magicians. Look so forward to the 1st chance to put in an order for a deck of the new "Parlour's" more than likely a brick of em! If possible😜👍 Thanks for the video, this made my day!!

[@GiveMeMyNameBackYoutube]

Finally a new video! Thanks for the upload. Alex is awesome. Been following him for years.

[@deepsilver999]

There are so many great options! Pigcake for his hilariously sarcastic take on magic. Chris Ramsay for his style and experience. Orbit Brown for his business acumen and unique sleights. Shin Lim for his amazing achievements. And the list could go on forever! Keep up the good work guys! :)

[@jamiemorrison8434]

I think Chris Ramsey makes the most sense from an exposure standpoint. His V2 launch was stupid successful and a follow-up collaboration could ride that momentum. Great video!

[@bbeth38]

By far the classiest playing card content creator out there. Would love to get my hands on the Parlour deck. I would also love to see a collaboration between you and Jeremy Griffith.

[@annibalpeixoto]

A collab with theory 11 would be aweskme. That way we can get not only an amazing tuck but with your insights and amazing back design and custom faces.

[@patrickreenen3974]

I think a collaboration with Chris Ramsey would be a good follow up. Love the new setup. Great video. Can't wait!

[@Martin-delta]

Great episode. Looking forward to more of this type. A collaboration with Andre Jikh would be awesome! The deck look awesome. Love Stockholm 17 designs.

[@ethanlitton586]

That effect he did at 10:38 even tho was a really cool effect the camera flashed the blank card when he put it in to the box

[@RichardDominguezTheMagicIsReal]

Good evening Gentleman Wake, hoping you and your loved ones are well, just like yourself I respect and appreciate Alex for the type of person he is before his content and then just like yourself I appreciate the excellent quality content that Alex offers on his channel ... As for other collaborators on KZbin I think it would be a great idea to do these without losing out on the content you already provide (i would hate to see some of the regular content disappear) ... As for who, in my opinion you hit on 2 of the best already (Alex and PC i.e. Pigcake) but the one that instantly comes to mind is Shin Lim (yea I know) ... as always thanks for sharing

[@hcjr103]

Phew! Got my Fort Nocs just now! Thanks so much!! ❤️❤️❤️💰

[@wolfgangbuck841]

You rock GW! Love the vids, reviews and tutorials. Thank you for your help!👍👍

[@diegodelavega4347]

"The Fort NOC deck was released on November 18th of 2019" We live in the future!

[@RobertBallMagician]

Awesome video of these cards and a great performance and tutorial as well. Love these cards 👍👍

[@pavelklotz22]

Quality of your videos is phenomenal. Love your dedication. Keep up the excellent work! And it would be great to see a collab with Xavior Spade. He always has some great tips.

[@SantaZeede]

I'm still bummed I couldn't meet up with you when you were in LA! Another awesome video! I'd love to see you and Magic Orthodoxy team up!

[@T.I.N.D]

Here for the giveaway good luck to all

[@eversosleight]

I absolutely love Alex Pandrea, his theory behind sleights and performance is unmatched. I would like to see collabs with Assad from 52kards, ramsey, and Xavier, also David from magic orthodoxy!

[@Wargod1984]

Great video! Really loved the new format! I would love to see Chris Ramsay and Xavior Spade.

[@drewbdoo_]

Love to see you do a collab with @Alex Pandrea! One of the magicians who got me back into the wonders of playing cards and card magic. 2 of my favorite youtubers together 😭😭😭 love it!!! It took me almost 2 years to find out what NOC means, and you just talked about it like it was nothing! Looking forward to you working with Asad @52Kards. If you havent yet, you should reach out to Brian Brushwood, Patrick Kun, Dan and/or Dave @ Art of Play or Daniel Madison! A collab with any of them would be super sick, I'm sure. P.S. CANNOT WAIT FOR THE PARLORS! When does the Kickstarter start?

[@bradbailey3235]

I would love to see you host Shin Lin (I got to dream big). Another would be Jaspas or Mahdi the Magician. Both have their own decks out. Of course, it would be really cool for you to interview some of the deck creators like Lorenzo, Gio or Jody Eklund. These are amazing artists using the playing card medium. You have done a brief online chat with Jackson, but it would be great to get him in your studio or set it up with a more high quality production. Great video and was amazed to see Alex Pandrea in action.

[@jonrr4964]

Gold review! Thanks for the Ft. Noc deal.. .

[@husalin4470]

Chris Ramsay or David from Magic Orthodoxy would be cool. You're the only playing card related youtubers I watch. Great episode and I really look forward to the next collaboration episodes. Good luck with The Parlour!

[@XegaK]

A collab with Brian Brushwood would be awesome

[@yoavfinkel8344]

A collab with Chris ramsay will be so. Cool!

[@MrPiffels]

Pandrea is awesome. love how he developed the noc deck brand from just simple colours to something with meaning and story behind it, really shows his creativity. Would love to see collabs with people that created their own decks, for extra insight into the cards. for example Chris ramsay, Asad from 52kards (which is coming) and Shin Lim. but also non youtubers like Chris Brown (orbits) and Daniel Schneider (orbits, red rose and many more). anyway great Review as always.

[@jib4733]

Ur camera recording skills are extremely good for a magician cardist. Nice collaboration with Alex pandrea and I love those parlours

[@callummyers1672]

Love the videos!!! Always inspired by your work. Should defiantly collaborate with Chris Ramsey to talk about the 1st playing cards

[@DangerGamer94]

This video is so cool. Pandrea is really cool. Please keep this series going!!! I really would like to see Patrik Kun interviewed or Chad Michael!! Keep up the good work!!

[@brianmink451]

Great video! Really enjoyed the collab. with Alex P. Chris Ramsay would be a good one to collab with also. I’d like to see that. I can’t wait for the Parlor deck, love that navy color!!!

[@ravelomiadz226]

Even the collaborations are so high end with TGA ! I love it ! can't wait to see the video with Asad

[@MsBoomerboy1]

Im a new subscriber to your channel and Im glad I found you. you have taught me alot so far about my new hobby. Thanks for all you do. Like I said Im new to this hobby so I would be open to any and all you tube creators you have on your channel

[@johngipson867]

Thank you for giving me the chance to get the fort noc at a price I could afford. Had to get 2 decks. Appreciate it man.

[@johngipson867]

It would be cool to see a how to do video with Chris ramsay with his 1st v2 cards.

[@amberdill8171]

I'm new to the whole collecting card game, but I gotta say your channel has help me pick up some great finds. Also, love to see you and Chris Ramsey or Peter peter Mckinnon collab

[@allanrousselle]

Love your work, as always. This was a great conversation / presentation. Other interviews I'd love to see: Jonathan Bayme of Theory11, Brad Christian of Ellusionist, and any/all of the past designers of the UnitedCardists Deck of the Year winners (in any/all categories). :-)

[@danfox9993]

Love the content You should totally get Chris on to review his 1st playing cards version 2

[@coitze9457]

How to I use the duplicate card(kicker ending

[@jacobytheawesome211]

Alex is one of my favorite magicians, (love the NOC decks.) it wold be cool to see an interview with Xavier Spade.

[@ecylee]

Loving this new direction. As mentioned earlier, Chris Ramsay (love your spoof), David of MagicOrthodoxy, Shin Lim, Penn & Teller would be awesome. Give the TGW treatment to their own series of playing cards!

[@amansonar0695]

Fort NOC is really cool.......you're really doing a great job man!!! We would like to see you with Alex Pandrea once again cause he is very good in teaching us tricks about how could we use simple tricks to get really happy and nice reactions....❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@espo7182]

Great video bro. I love Alex and this was a nice look inside his head. However, with only 5200 subs, making such a bold statement saying this is the best channel for info on playing cards, is a risk. I enjoyed this video and plan to watch more of your stuff. However, you set a very high goal for yourself man. I hope you reach it. This video was enjoyable and made well.

[@md.taskin1738]

I am back and Happy to see my favorite magician ... Thanks a lot.....Love from Bangladesh..I would love to handle the very first deck of yours in my country also love Chris Ramsay , Xavier Spade , Ekatrina , Khan Tricks maybe you can collab with anyone among them it will be awsome.....

[@goranatlas2756]

Anyone know what cardistry name In 9:26

[@miked5471]

Another great video, cant wait to hold them cards. Alex is awesome.. Would love to see Chris Ramsay on the GW.

[@FastForward352]

Great video ! Alex is one of my favorites magicians, with Pig Cake, Chris Ramsay, Xavior spade and of course Shin Lim. I hope to see all of them on your channel soon 😏 And I'm looking forward to YOUR playing cards, they're AWESOME ! 😍. I check Kickstarter everyday and I'll be in for a brick I think...if they're USPCC of course 😉Greetings from a french fan 👍

[@dieselillusions9894]

You gotta do a sit down with Randy Butterfield! Awesome guy! Good luck with The Parlour! Look forward to getting it in to my photo studio.

[@Bradymbasso]

I think it would be awesome to see you collaborate with guys like Patrick Kun or Chris Ramsay or Shin Lim! Thanks for all the awesome work you do!

[@roolman369]

I like it the way the videos and the reviews are so no need change 😄

[@paulT26]

Its release on 2018 not 2019 1.56sec

[@frosteenight5888]

those are some beautiful cards both of you guys

[@jacobbowder5077]

Chris Ramsay! That would be an EPIC collab! Wes Barker would also be cool even though he doesn't produce cards. I enjoyed the longer episode this time. Those are always my favorite because they pack in the content!

[@williammorgan7303]

This video was fantastic! Love your reviews anyway but also a big fan of Alex Pandrea so that was a bonus. I think Chris Ramsey would be a good next collaboration,just my opinion though. I wish I could justify the $20 for the deck but very generous of Alex to put the offer out.

[@oliverclements9818]

Awesome video, the quality of your content is just unbelievable. I think a collab with Rise Magic would be fun to watch

[@kevinkan6377]

Definitely would like to see you collaborate with Shin Lim. However, it would be DOPE if you could get Alexander Chin (Seasons Playing Cards) to talk about how he does his designs and all. BTW, just bought a Fort NOC, thank you so much!!

[@susantakumardas9430]

Man you are awesome .collab with anyone but keep making this type of video

[@erikadvorsak8616]

Omg someone please tell me if the flourish at 9:26 has a name..!!

[@brainbowfright666]

I love your reviews! So well made. You make amazing cards look even MORE amazing! A collaboration with Dan & Dave or Chris Ramsay would be dope. Thanks! Keep it up!!!

[@chrispykoala]

I would love to see you interview more magicians like Chris Ramsay👍 great video🔥

[@eduancloete5068]

That video was so spectacular.... I really enjoyed it... Please try to get Chris Ramsay on your channel!

[@marcaocfh]

You've already covered half of my favourite magicians (Pigcake and Alex). So I really love to see a colab video with Chris Ramsay and Shin Lim.

[@woply2362]

I tried slowing down the video when Alex did the double lift BUT I still didn't see it. It is amazing that how something seems so effortless. But then again practice makes perfect. That being said, Chris Ramsay would be great magician to collaborate with. He's also a friend of Alex.

[@matejmraz6356]

I would really love to see you and Xavior Spade in one video, he is really passionate about the craft, but mainly a really chill guy :D

[@maxwellbrand]

I’d love to see you colab with some super talented magic and cardistry kids who don’t have much of an audience, and don’t have your awesome production skills. And I want that prototype deck!!! ❤️

[@adriaanheeneman6668]

Great video! Should make a vid with rise magic!

[@mattiaszahn2688]

Yes! Another Rise Magic fan!

[@magicimpossible7619]

I'd love to see you do either a collaboration with shin lim or Chris Ramsay. Thank you for all you do and I'm hyped for this new series

[@chicodecoster]

Welcome to Las Vegas my Brother. Hope you enjoy the city where I live in. I would love to see you collaborate with Chris Ramsay, Xavier Spade and of course Pig Cake!!

[@writer_brook]

I would love to see you collaborate with Chris Ramsay. I think your exquisite style and some of his experiences would be an excellent combination. I look forward to seeing more of these kinds videos and other people you'll collaborate with!

[@twybo]

I think almost any collab with a magician that made his or her own deck would be great (for example shin lim, with the regalia), as this way (like here, great stuff btw) the author can share the story around the deck. Great video!

[@lawrencejamescarter3803]

Guys Wats The Title Of The Song Played In The Begging of the video?

[@iLLynch]

The New Deck Looks Great GW! Awesome Vid yo!

[@jakebevington7319]

Any word on when exactly it will release on kickstarter

[@McLovinBen]

Would love to see you collaborate with Shin Lim, looking forward to picking up your cards
