Magic Review - Flux 2.0 by Roddy McGhie and Noel Qualter

This video is a thorough review of Flux 2.0, a moving ink effect from Roddy McGhie and Noel Qualter, produced by Trick Trick Boom. David, the creator of Magic Orthodoxy, provides a detailed look at the product, its mechanics, and its potential for performance. He emphasizes that this is a tutorial-style review, walking viewers through the product and its use. Flux 2.0 centers around a selected card being revealed through a clever moving ink effect. The package includes a deck of cards and gimmicks that facilitate the effect, offering 20 reveals of each of two cards (2 of Hearts and 9 of Hearts). The core of the trick relies on fundamental techniques like card forces and double/triple lifts. David believes the effect is best suited for a close-up setting, praising the gimmick's clean appearance and inspectability. While the limited number of reveals is a consideration, he appreciates the trick's analog nature and simplicity, considering it a worthwhile purchase for those who value a souvenir-like element for their audience. He also promotes his other channels, including Magic Channel Card Tricks, where he teaches beginner-level magic.
