In Dark Triumph

Nathan Kranzo

(Based on 1 review)
This isn’t the Triumph you wanted, it’s the Triumph you needed.

The spectator signs a card, it’s lost in the deck, then the spectator shuffles the cards face up into face down. The cards are immediately spread and all of the cards face the same direction except for the one bearing their signature.

This fantastic routine from Nathan Kranzo puts all of the things we want out of this classic effect in the hands of the spectator. It’s extremely easy to do, and the presentation makes the method totally fly past your audiences. Best of all this can be done with a borrowed deck that is in any condition.

The next time a friend hands you a dog eared deck that is beyond worn out, Dark Triumph is here to save the day.

This is too good to be true …looks great, plays great, seems impossible but it’s not, it’s fun and it looks like real magic. There is really only one simple move and it’s really not a move. For all intents and purposes, the spectator does most of the work just prior to the amazing climax of this effect.

The card chosen by the spectator is really a free choice not a force - great start. There is no controlling of the selected card - nice! There is nothing to make, glue, cut or add to the deck - this keeps getting better. There is no sleight of hand, nothing complicated to do at all - Really? Yes. Pro or novice - doesn’t matter, it’s easy. As I was watching the tutorial I just followed what Nathan did with a deck of cards and it worked that quickly, I was already doing it. What you see in the trailer is exactly what happens. Learning time - a couple of minutes. If you are a pro, Nathan does show an alternate handling but this is not necessary.

What reason would you not buy this one, there are none, this is a keeper and can be done in a moments notice. No set up required, totally impromptu, use your deck or the spectator's as long as they don’t mind being left with a signed card in their deck. But why not, what a great story they will tell about you the next time they play cards and the signed card comes into play. This will also fool other Magicians if that’s what you are into. Don’t hesitate, this is a ‘must have’.
