Marked Decks
Hey again! 😅
I've been looking at marked decks, and my first thought was the Phoenix Marked Deck, because even though I've never owned one, it's the most well-known. However, recently, the "My power Deck" came out, a gimmick Bicycle deck. If any of you have either of them, I'd appreciate any advice or opinions. Thanks!!

Hey everyone!
First off, while Phoenix marked decks are known, I'd argue they're only as popular as any other marked deck out there (not to mention they're on the pricier side). I think, by far, the most recognized and widely used are any of the Bicycle marked deck versions (specifically the Maiden backs from Penguin Magic).
I use both: Bicycle Maiden Backs (red decks) and My power deck (blue decks).
That said, I'll mention that the "My power deck" is pretty solid. Even though its system is a bit simpler than the Maiden's, it's still very good and a great marked deck (plus it's a good value compared to other options).
In both cases (Phoenix marked and My power deck), they feature a practically invisible and undetectable marking system. Either one is a good option.
Thanks a ton!!! Really appreciate hearing from someone with experience!😁

Beyond what you're talking about, there are tons of marked decks out there, but as @zeta mentioned, Penguin's Maiden Backs are some of the best, both for price and quality. While there are other good options that work well, like the Boris, or even the Fournier 505s, for instance.
