Mesmerizing Effects Revealed
Angle Portal
Witness a stunning teleportation where a selected card, pushed into one half of the deck, visually and slowly emerges from the other half. With packets held in an 'L' shape, this is a streamlined and highly motivated visual effect that truly sells the impossibility of the moment.
Portal
An ingenious alternative handling to 'Angle Portal.' Instead of a slow visual, the card astonishingly jumps from the middle of one packet to the other, with the packets held side-by-side. It utilizes the same foundational mechanics but offers a distinctly different, equally powerful visual impact.
What Goes Up
Experience a captivating rise effect where a card, initially shown on top, is placed at the bottom, only to mysteriously rise back to the top. But the magic doesn't stop there; it then visibly falls back down to the bottom, all while the card remains protruding from the deck, making every phase incredibly clear and impossible.
The Rice Will Fall
Inspired by Dan and Dave's 'Uzumaki,' this rising effect includes a brilliant twist ending. A card shown on top is placed at the bottom and visibly rises. However, in a surprising finale, it's revealed that all the cards are now face-up, implying the 'risen' card is, in fact, still on the bottom, creating a truly memorable and deceptive conclusion.
