Rogue Card by Ae Jay and TCC
Imagine this: the pips on a playing card in the magician’s hand begin to split and move, transforming into the spectator’s selected card. This mesmerizing effect, known as the ‘Moving Pips,’ has captivated magic enthusiasts and master magicians worldwide, especially after its appearance on magic TV specials.
At the finals of America’s Got Talent 2018, Shin Lim showcased this plot in his finale routine, leaving audiences in awe. Unlike most visual card changes, the ‘Moving Pips’ effect is often attributed to the magician’s ‘quickness,’ as the card appears to morph as if by special effects.
But what if the card could transform on its own, completely isolated from the magician’s hands? This is the groundbreaking concept behind the Rogue Card, created by Malaysian Magic Creator, Ae Jay.
The ‘Moving Pips’ effect has a rich history spanning over 100 years, but since Theodore DeLand first introduced it, there has never been a version as magical as the Rogue Card. Its use of long-distance controls and seemingly hands-off operations makes it a true reputation maker. Once seen, the Rogue Card is unforgettable.
“As a fabricator of Magic Illusions and a performer, I can really appreciate Ae Jay’s Rogue! Love it and I can’t wait to use it!” – Ray Lum, Las Vegas Illusion Fabricator.
Despite its straightforward effect and simple operation, the Rogue Card’s journey to perfection was anything but easy. Originally slated for release in early 2021, it faced numerous delays due to design, construction, and material selection challenges. Dozens of prototypes were scrapped before all issues were finally resolved. However, the final hurdle remained: every Rogue Card had to be meticulously handmade and assembled.
To achieve this, two master craftsmen, Lukas Liu and Sam Li, were brought on board. Known for their pursuit of perfection in prop making, they dedicated hours to crafting each Rogue Card, with a high scrap rate due to the precision required. The final product is rigorously tested to ensure durability and performance.

…the pips on the playing card displayed in the Magician’s hand began to split and move, turning into the spectators’ selected card…
The above scenario should be familiar to you. As one of the leading visual card effects, the ‘Moving Pips’ has been a favorite of magic enthusiasts and master magicians all over the world after appearing on magic TV specials.
At the finals of America’s Got Talent 2018, Shin Lim used this plot as one of the effects in his finale routine.
Unlike most visual playing card changes, the effect is often attributed by laypeople to the magician’s ‘quickness’. The Moving Pips effect slowly shows the playing card morphing as if it was special effects.
In previous iterations, the Magician has to hold the playing card. What if the playing card could be completely isolated, yet still apparently transform on its own?
It was this very idea that Malaysian Magic Creator, Ae Jay, created the Rogue Card.
In fact, the Moving Pips effect has a history of more than 100 years, however, since Theodore DeLand created this effect, there might not have been a version more magical than the Rogue Card.
The use of long-distance controls and seemingly completely hands-off operations makes it a real reputation maker. Almost everyone who has seen the Rogue Card will have it burned in their memories.

Notwithstanding its straightforward effect and simple operation, Rogue Card has in fact gone through a rather difficult process. The original plan was to release it at the beginning of 2021, however, due to various issues, it was delayed, until now.
Issues encountered ranged from the design and construction to the proper material selection resulted in dozens of prototypes being scrapped. All issues were finally solved, but we still had one problem: everything had to be made and assembled purely by hand.
For this reason, we invited two playing card gimmick crafting masters, one is Lukas Liu, and Sam Li, both of who are in pursuit of perfect prop making, to take charge of the crafting of the props.
Even though they make props all year round, the time it takes to craft a set of Rogue takes them hours. Moreover, there is a high scrap rate, as one mistake means that they have to start all over.
The final product is tested to ensure its durability.
