Magic Review - Nemesis Deck by Nick Locapo

In this full, honest magic review of the Nemesis Deck by Nick Locapo, I go through everything you need to know about this new release from Penguin Magic. This really may be the best version of the Do As I Do effect! The Do As I Do plot is a very cool card magic trick, using two decks of cards. It is an influencing routine. It's incredibly clean, and easy to do. You get the gimmicked deck, a packet, and the tutorial with Nick Locapo in the P3 Magic Studio! Enjoy this magic review!
------------------------------------------------------------
Nick Locapo finally shares one of his secret weapons with the magic community. He’s been keeping this close to the vest and fooling some of the best magicians on the planet with this miracle. Imagine getting access to the effect Nick Locapo reserves to wreck the minds of the magicians who come to film at Penguin. This isn’t any ordinary card trick. This is Nemesis by Nick Locapo.
Here’s what happens:
The cards are examined, shuffled, and then cut into two piles. Each person freely selects a card from their pile, and the names of those cards are written down on separate pieces of paper so there can be no doubt as to their identity. The cards are then lost into the piles and then fairly shuffled. Under these impossible conditions, you cut directly to their card. Then, the spectator cuts anywhere they want. The card they find is the same card you wrote down at the beginning of the trick.
Nemesis uses a streamlined handling and method that eliminates the need for marks, crimps, specially printed or treated cards. Even more incredible is that you can also use the Nemesis Deck to perform some of your favorite card tricks. That means you can start and end a multiple-trick set with the Nemesis Deck. It’s practical, easy to do, and ready to go right out of the box. One of the hardest-working magicians in the industry is finally revealing one of his most closely guarded effects, and he’s not just sharing one thing. He’s giving you all of the work. You get multiple handlings and even a bonus card at number that will leave your audiences stunned. Nick’s masterpiece is now your greatest ally. This is Nemesis Deck by Nick Locapo.

[@robertshawiv1513]

Great review! 👍🏻

[@BlakeAleongMagic]

Thank you Robert!

[@jacksonsmagic]

This was a comprehensive review, however the product is not for me because of the risky switch that is involved.

[@BlakeAleongMagic]

Thanks so much for watching! Yeah, this won't be for everyone. However, you don't have to do a switch, if you start with the deck ready. You can have half the deck examined.

[@joshuaburch382]

Nick teaches to do the switch behind the back or below the table as part of the trick. It's well motivated. I would be more inclined to call it a self-working switch than I would to to call it a risky switch. It's incredibly easy to do.
As Blake said above you don't need to use the switch at all and the trick works perfectly fine.

[@BlakeAleongMagic]

@joshuaburch382 Thanks for the insight, Josh!

[@csmtree]

Great review Blake. One recommendation, if I may. Please slow down just a little. You're so smart and have a great vocabulary, but talk a little too fast. Overall, great job!!!

[@BlakeAleongMagic]

Thanks for the advice. I will slow down in future! Thanks for watching. I always appreciate feedback.

Thanks so much Lasse!

[@RobertBallMagician]

Very nice review 👍😊👍😊

[@BlakeAleongMagic]

Thanks! It's a great trick.

[@abhishekab1]

What do you mean by self contained?

[@Movietuff]

There must be some sort of sneaky gimmicks or gaffs, no need to lie.
They wouldn't sell a deck made especially for that trick if there wasn't.

[@BlakeAleongMagic]

There is a gaff. However, it is not rough and smooth, or a stripper deck.

[@BlakeAleongMagic]

Also, it is completely normal by the end. Even a magician would not find anything.

[@Movietuff]

@@BlakeAleongMagic could this gaff be made to fit any deck of cards, if I may ask?

[@BlakeAleongMagic]

If you wanted to do arts and crafts to every single card, yes. You may also need to buy something.

[@Movietuff]

@@BlakeAleongMagic would it be hard? And is the gaff unremoveable?

[@yourfriends]

Another con is that they don’t have refills 😢

[@BlakeAleongMagic]

They do, but you'll have to find them.
