Rally Joker by Doosung Hwang and AB (Blue)

Created by: Doosung Hwang, AB (Blue)

Rally Joker is a close-up card magic trick that delivers a series of impossible transformations and discoveries using Jokers. In the routine, a spectator selects a card, which is lost in the deck. A Joker is then introduced and, with a simple gesture, visibly changes into the spectator's selected card, creating a clean and baffling transformation. The effect can be extended with multiple phases where Jokers vanish from the deck and reappear in surprising locations, such as gathered on a single card or inside special envelopes, offering opportunities for comedy and strong audience interaction. Created by Doosung Hwang and AB (Blue), this trick is self-contained, quick to reset, and requires no difficult sleight of hand, making it ideal for walk-around or close-up performances. Buyers should note that the product includes a deck of cards (available in red or blue backs) and special envelopes, and some phases may require minor preparation, such as cutting out an additional Joker.

MurphysMagicSupplies says...

The routine is highly adaptable to different performing styles. You can present it in a comical, offbeat way—as if the Jokers are disappearing without your knowledge—or frame it as a more serious, intentional feat of magic.

SaturnMagicShop says...

The effect centers on a visually clean and impossible-looking transformation. A spectator's selected card is lost in the deck, only for a single Joker to be introduced. With a simple gesture, the Joker visibly and instantly changes into the spectator's very same selected card.
