Svengali decks are ALWAYS fun; they are one of those "classic" gimmicks that have stood the test of time. As I have said before, things become classics for a reason; crappy tricks don't end up as classics.

The svengali deck is a classic gimmicked deck. These are cheap, easy to use and they do all the work for you. That is a great concept within itself. There are SO many things you can do with a svengali, and there are a TON of resources to learn different tricks.

The only problems a svengali used to have is that they weren't of a good stock. Other svengali decks LOOKED fishy; they didn't look like things people recognized or decks people could relate too. Now that these decks are manufactured by Bicycle (and cheap too!) these are a GREAT buy and really help you do things that couldn't be accomplished as fairly with a normal deck.

Fantastic for beginners OR experts. Pick one up if you don't have one already.

This is a great trick deck and one of my favorites. But, i must advise not to show all the cards the same (unless you plan to do aa deck switch) as the audience will realize that it is a trick deck. Overall though it's a wonderfull little deck.

This deck is one of my favorites, the reason it got 4 stars is because you cannot do it twice to the same person, and it isnt examinable. All though it is a really good trick, and it's a great price for the reactions you get.

Add to cart now!

Well to start off I know many good card tricks and tricks in general and I get a mixed amount of reactions depending on the person and my performance. This trick has most definitely got more of a reaction from people than any of my other tricks. People cannot explain how you did it and are in Awwwwww after seeing it done. The best part is you can do many other Tricks with this deck to lead up to the ultimate climax. If u are into card tricks and want the craziest reaction from spectators than buy this trick NOW.

One of the most useful pieces of magic apparatus that I own. It's really fun to use and gives you so much variety in the tricks you can do, you can almost put on a performance with this equipment alone.

This is the main trick for my next show. Not only that, but my first show! Perfect, thank you!

This was my first effect ever purchased and I love it because I wouldn't be into magic without it! It's great for the beginner for many reasons, its simple, has an amazing effect, many possibilities and most of all is fun to perform. Any beginner will have their spectators in WOW when doing this and only takes a little practice!

This is a must have for any beginner in card magic, along with a Stripper deck. I think the stripper deck is a little more versatile, but you can still do a ton with the Svengali. It is actually a good force deck, as well.

With the svengali deck, you can do a lot a really good effects but you can't give the deck to the audience and you can't do the trick more than one time to the same audience because this is always the same card used for the trick.

i first got this when i was 10 years old, my first magic trick, and i still use it. its great, especially after proving yourself as a "card man", you can introduce this deck and really astound your audience. you can also use it in different ways then the suggested routine and you will find more strength in that. honestly i dont use it enough. be creative!
