Having travelled the world for years in search of the perfect card finish, the fruits of DMC's extensive travels are finally here ... the ELITES V5: PHANTOM FINISH.

Using a slightly thicker stock, this finish is both more robust and long-lasting than many of the slimmer cardistry decks of today, and promises a much firmer handling of the cards. When coupled with Phill Smith's world-famous 'Optical Marking System' (which now includes full four-corner markings, Juan Tamariz's genius MNEMONICA numberings and a unique one-way back design), we believe this is truly the most powerful, comprehensive and usable deck ever created for magicians. The deck even arrives in Mnemonica stack, ready to go right out of the box!

With a LIMITED 1st EDITION run of just 1000 decks (printed in cobalt blue for the very first time), this deck marks a pivotal transition in the timeline of ELITES playing cards - now deck of choice to many thousands of professional magicians worldwide and voted by United Cardists as 'The Greatest Deck for Magicians' available in the world today.

Included within each deck is a language-free instruction card that clearly explains the marking system, a two way ‘crib’ card (that allows you to glimpse the full Mnemonica stack with ease) and two custom DMC jokers, one with an inbuilt card reveal. As with the previous ELITES V5s, the card faces have also been upgraded to an ultra high-definition rendition of the standard faces, and also feature a uniquely brilliant one-way marking system on the cards' indices themselves.

Brosmind is a Barcelona-based studio founded by the Mingarro brothers. This whimsical deck is loaded with fantasy and humor.

This is a special, ultra-limited edition of the Nexus playing cards. Limited to only 500 individually-numbered decks, the Black edition cards use black ink and gold foil on the card backs for an extra pop of elegance and shine.

The Black edition is currently available only through special promotions and giveaways and is not available for purchase.

Nexus can refer to a connection between ideas, objects, or places. It can also be the central, most important place or idea. Nexus playing cards explore the duality of this concept.

Designed by Max Bondarchuk, the Nexus deck has 100% custom artwork. The back design appears simple & traditional from a distance, but more details emerge when viewed up-close.

The linked circles in the design, astral elements, and other symbolism invite routines & presentations about connection, mysticism, and more - making this an ideal tool for mind-reading, mentalism, and cold-reading routines.

The faces use custom fonts, new pip designs & layouts on the number cards, and custom court card designs. Despite the customization, the faces maintain enough familiarity to be suitable for all tricks and games.

The box is made from a premium matte black paper with all of the design work stamped in luxurious gold foil inside and out. The box is sealed with an individually-numbered foil stamp.

Nexus playing cards feature Penguin's exclusive UltraLux™ Finish and AquaFlow™ Coating. The casino-grade European card stock and perfect linen texture deliver a deck that handles like an absolute dream. The cards are traditionally cut with smooth edges that provide just the right amount of grip.

Printed with vegetable-based inks and water-based coating, the cards are planet-friendly as well! Nexus decks are soft enough to get to work straight out of the box, but durable enough to meet the needs of a full-time magician, cardist, or card sharp.
