I like how they specifically mentions the power cards are not randomized, as though they were at one time considering them to be randomized.

Martial Powers should be interesting to see, given the "power creep" that was prevalent in 3.5. Have they learned anything from that fiasco (probably not, since they might be going for the "Games Workshop Effect" in which each new thing is better than the last to persuade people to buy it)? Only time will tell.

Or they've learned that when WotC and cards are used in the same sentence people automatically assume that it will be random and wanted to cut that off from the beginning.

Just imagine what you would think now, if neither randomized nor non-randomized would be written out!

Eight decks in all, 2 each per counter display.
$9.99/deck releases January 20, 2009
Am I understanding this correctly ... to have cards for all of the classes (in just the PHB1) you would need to buy eight different decks?

Can you provide a link for that? My recollection is that some people on internet messageboards either suggested or assumed they would be randomized, but that WotC never mentioned such a thing.

And if you only want the cards for the character you are currently playing, you would only need to buy one deck, or two if you are multiclassing.

He is saying that the fact that they pointed out that they aren't random might be due to their possibly having considered to have them randomized at one point in the past.

He isn't saying WotC said that they would be random. He's saying that it's an idea they may have thrown around, since they're specifically calling out that they aren't random.

EDIT: GnomeWorks explained it for me

I don't know if it was, I meant the fact they specifically state it's NOT indicates that at one point it might have been. Usually you don't indicate something is specifically not something... unless it was going to be exactly that at one point.

...or, you might explicitly point it out because you're worried that someone on an internet forum, perhaps someone posting pseudonymously under a name like wayne62682, might start a furor by speculating wildly about randomized power cards.

Hey, folks. I just made a few notes from a half-page of info about each product. I mentioned non-randomized because I thought it was worth mentioning since WotC and randomized are almost synonymous for some people on these boards. I thought it would clarify the point, not start up some rumors that WotC must have planned to randomize.

I thought it was important that the card sets confirm the number of classes in PHB2, and the lack of new classes in Martial Powers. Also, the number of powers per class presented in Martial Powers will be similar will be similar to the number in the PHB.

Great, if you only ever plan on playing one class. The price of diversity is only 80 fraking bucks per PHB, and $40 per power book.
