Has anyone else noticed the one way back design on the Guardians?

It may well be a really subtle one way but apart from doesn't look like it.

Look at the cylinders on the vertical sides. Unless I'm blind.

I think its just the way that the photo is taken, pretty sure they aren't one way

probably not one way, considering they're meant to be of good quality, one ways are extremely annoying, I'm pretty sure they're symettrical on both sides.

The Guardians have an extremely subtle one-way back design that will go unnoticed by spectators but you can use if you wish to locate cards, etc. If not, they're so close to symmetrical that it shouldn't give you that bad taste in your mouth that most one-ways do.

Who cares about a one way back design so small. I've used League Back in magic, but nobody notices them.

Don't get me wrong, I have no problem with it. I was just wandering if anybody else noticed it.

I like it. A little bit of a one-way back is a good thing, just gives you one more was to use the pack. The Magic Castle Cards are the same way, along with many other different brands.

As long as its not obvious (that makes it annoying), good stuff.

Well, someone said something with the tubes, I'm not sure, I'll probably look at it when I get myself some decks, and I'll take some high-res photographs

What I would do is once I get the deck is riffle through it, and if I am correct, there should be a notable difference between the backs of each card.

Well if they're are one-way but just slightly that's alright with me. Basically every Bike deck is (if you look the top white border and bottom white borders are different thickness) But the audience doesnt pick up on it. They'll probably be too busy drooling regardless.

Correct, this is most all bicycle decks, very subtle one way though, but can be very useful at times. Also it is difficult for spectators to figure this out, so if they want to take a look at the deck, let them, they won't notice.
