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. Incredibly clearly marked playing cards that you also can confidently hand to your audience without fear of the secret being discovered. The result is a deck that was voted as “The Best Deck for Magic” by United Cardists. What does this mean in layman’s terms? Well, simply put – in glancing at the back of a single playing card for LESS THAN A SECOND (and from a distance of up to SEVEN FEET) you will know not only the card’s exact VALUE and SUIT, but also its precise POSITION in the deck! This fifth edition has taken the greatest leap yet and answered the wishes of so many hundreds of magicians over the years… by incorporating Juan Tamariz’s legendary MNEMONICA system into the deck! This unique blending of ‘marked deck’ and ‘stacked deck’ magic positions the DMC ELITES V5 clearly as one of the most devious and powerful weapons available today for both the amateur and professional card magician. Despite this, you can still comfortably hand the deck to a layman safe in the knowledge that even the most critical observer would not even suspect, let alone detect, the secret markings. The OMS has an ingeniously hidden marking mechanic that is readable with extreme speed, at great range and even in poor light: It hides the value and suit of the card in plain sight with no decoding necessary – the back of the card literally says the value and the suit. The DMC ELITES V5 cards feature the latest iteration of the unique Optical Marking System (OMS), a powerful ‘clear reader’ system designed specifically for the use of magicians and mentalists (as opposed to many decks designed for the gambling world). Over several years they have worked together to create the ultimate deck of cards for performing magic, and the DMC ELITES V5 is the latest and greatest expression of this undertaking. The iconic DMC ELITES are a unique collaboration between British magician Drummond Money-Coutts (star of National Geographic’s CARD SHARK and BEYOND MAGIC WITH DMC, and of Netflix series DEATH BY MAGIC) and designer and magic creator Phill Smith.

As the decks are as affordable as the regular Phoenix Decks, there is no reason not to give these decks a try. So now, in 2017, Card Shark has started an Evolution, by changing the faces of Poker playing cards to make them more visible - The Phoenix Deck Large Index. The Parlour Decks changed the card visibility for Parlour situations, but what if you like to stay with the size of Poker cards that you are used to? However, neither type is a good solution. Our options were giant oversize decks that just look like a magic prop, or we tried to use the Jumbo Index Decks that were created for Casinos. We, as magicians, sometimes struggle performing with these cards for a larger audience, due to lack of visibility. The faces of the playing cards have not changed for more than 100 years, being perfectly suited for Poker and other card games. While others design fancy collectors' decks, the Phoenix Deck was made with care for workers. Some already call the Phoenix Quality the new standard for playing cards made for magicians.
