I used to shy away from photographic decks, but lately, through collecting, I've found that some of them are not bad! The first one I got was the Sacred Circle, and then recently I bought the Cosmic Tribe,which is one of my top 5 decks! I don't think its what artstyle used in the deck that makes me like it or not, I think its how that deckuses the style. You can have really nice drawings, but the cards could be utterly static, with no symbolism, etc...
