This poll is like trying to crowdsource what you are going to have to dinner next week.



But you are allergic to mushrooms.



...and can't stand cilantro.





...and you had steaks last night.









There's no consensus. Don't be the sheep. Get what you like and ignore the group think.

Odds are you'll follow the "herd" and whatever cards you get will wind up on a shelf unused.






(BTW, didn't vote here. My guess is 63.2% of the folks here don't like my favorites anyways)
 
From a design standpoint, it's Faded Spade for me, ainec.

I agree that the Faded Spade cards with the 4 color modern faces are pretty cool and unique looking. I'm definitely glad that I grabbed a setup of those before they sold out, even though I've yet to use them in a game. And if we were to completely remove all other factors such as paper stock, texture, print quality, etc. from the equation (which admittedly the OP did ask us to do), and we were going 100% purely from a design standpoint, then I might have agreed with you that these assuredly rank among my favorites. But I don't think that I'm comfortable calling these Jumbo Index cards (which the OP did also specify in their request). It seems to me that Faded Spade simply chose a bold font for the index, which does indeed improve the readability a bit, but that alone doesn't qualify it as Jumbo Index in my mind. But that's just my $0.02!

Nice comparison. And now that I look at it closer I notice that the back of the Faded Spade box does specifically state "Custom sized poker index for superior hole card & flop readability."

Originally I didn't want to compare the bridge sized Faded Spades to any of my Bicycles since all of my Bikes are poker sized. Instead, I had tried comparing them to standard bridge Cartamundi cards (gray box), standard bridge Angel Playing Cards (green box), jumbo bridge Kem, and jumbo bridge Desjgn. And yes the Faded Spade is indeed a larger index than both of those standard index sets, but I still think it isn't quite as large the two with true "jumbo" indexes. So it looks like they may have found a pretty happy medium with their "custom sized poker index." I'll therefore concede the point... Faded Spade's 4 color setup should indeed qualify for the OP's poll!

Fair, I had one of those jumbo KEMs that took up half the card, tough to even read.
