Compare the three Dualism decks from Thirdway Industries: Lumen, Libra, and Sunrise. Find out which limited-edition collectible fits your style and collecting goals.
Quick answer
If you want the full black-and-white symbol of duality, choose Libra. For a white deck with gold foil and Patreon exclusivity, pick Lumen. For a holographic twist on the white theme, go with Sunrise.
What makes each deck unique
The Dualism series from Thirdway Industries explores humanity's dual nature—good and evil coexisting. Each deck interprets this theme differently through color, foil, and availability.
Lumen is the white deck of the series, a 2024 Patreon Yearly Reward with gold cold foil on front and back. It's an Eternal Edition (EE) reserved mainly for TWI Patrons, making it the most exclusive option.
Libra is the main deck, combining black and white to directly represent duality. It also features gold cold foil and is an Eternal Edition, but is more accessible than Lumen.
Sunrise is part of the Dualism Chroma line, using holographic cold foil instead of gold. It's a white deck with a vibrant, light-reflecting finish, and around 700 copies were made.
Key differences to consider
The most obvious difference is the foil: Lumen and Libra use gold cold foil, while Sunrise uses holographic cold foil. This changes the visual impact and the collectible feel.
Rarity also varies. Lumen is the hardest to obtain due to its Patreon-exclusive nature. Libra is the main deck and likely more available. Sunrise has a stated print run of around 700, making it a limited edition but not as exclusive as Lumen.
Price reflects this: Libra costs USD 70, Lumen USD 64, and Sunrise USD 62.05 (all at a discount from their comparison prices). Lumen's lower price may be due to its Patreon reward status, not lower value.
