The BEST Deck of Playing Cards for Magicians! | Invoked Playing Cards

The CardMechanic delivers an enthusiastic review of the Invoked Playing Cards, produced in collaboration with Magic and Cards, hailing them as a 'Swiss army knife' for magicians. Built on a Bicycle deck with premium Crush stock, these cards boast innovative features designed to enhance performance. Key among these are one-way faces, three distinct marking systems (readable from up to six feet away), and a suite of extra cards like identical Jokers and a revealing King of Hearts. The creator praises the deck's excellent handling, suitable for cardistry, but notes its potentially 'showy' appearance might reveal its purpose to discerning audiences. The video also includes a giveaway to encourage engagement and promote the Magic and Cards website, which offers free magic content. Ultimately, The CardMechanic highly recommends the Invoked Playing Cards, particularly for magicians and those interested in exploring marking systems, deeming them an 'intellectual masterpiece,' while suggesting a darker version with maintained marking visibility would be a welcome addition.
