[kaniv1234]

[YurizOfficial]

eaassyyyy

[CardMagic305]

[MagicJugglerProd]

[JamesIsHere100]

how can everyone figure this out but me?

[FlOuRiShFrIeDeR]

Perfect trick! I love how you handle the cards! 5*!!!

[ASBmagician]

Oh no! I came up with the exact same idea!

[FrankysMagicStuff]

Äwsome'! but I figured it out tho, but I loveed it!!

[canadiandaniel]

sexy cards :D

[samrakaan]

song please

[blackandrej]

cards cards cards. fuck off

[rizki577]

sorry,

i can figure it out

[TheMagicalCardKId]

i want those cards!!!!!

[zainimagicrestaurant]

very easy...



[zeldakid253]

Can anyone tell me name of this song? Btw, Very nice routine.

[dfgt2012]

god someone pls tell me what the song is called

[Jamony1]

The climax was at 2:00 not 1:41

[1998sks]

Its quite simple but i had to watch it twice to understand amazing

[ZachTanMagic]

This trick is very easy to do and completely impromptu, definitely going into my repertoire

[Whit3spad3]

Omg this is genius.....i believe i figured it out but seriously was too good......

[yalnas]

You do not have to reply to this is it gives away to much Ben but:

can this be done with a borrowed deck?

[TheBlueCrownMagic]

@yalnas Hey! Thanks for the question. This CAN be done with any borrowed deck, although it might not look as good without those Green Crowns! Just kidding....It is impromptu, easy, and elegant!

[akmalhafiz1]

@TheBlueCrownMagic wow nice deck that is thin deck right the card is thinner than standard card am i correct?

[BenziTrain]

@akmalhafiz1 Although I'll let Alex answer for sure, they didn't feel any thinner to me. I believe they're printed on Arrco stock... but if I'm wrong blame me and not The Blue Crown for the wrong info!

[akmalhafiz1]

@BenziTrain hey can you tell me what is this song pls i want to add in my bold assembly video routine pls

[BenziTrain]

@yalnas This will even work with a Magic: The Gathering deck. And if you happen to find a Transformers (TM) deck then you get to yell "TRANSFORMERS ASSEMBLE!" when you perform it. Just sayin'.

[yalnas]

did anyone else feel mindfucked when he spread the packets?

[BenziTrain]

@yalnas Hahaha- awesome! I'm glad I could share that feeling!



[sliverboy]

Ah, hence the name.. Takes someone bold to do something bold

[TheMagicPRO]

very easy to do i figured it out before the 1st view :) but nice idea :)

[jogpianoman]

i dont see how you could get away with this in real world performances

[Reddy6cp]

when will the green crown deck be released?

[TheMrSVC]

why doing an emsley? useless...?

[MagicByWest]

@TheMrSVC The garden path my friend, enjoy your walk down it.

[James1Wise]

@TheMrSVC I think it's done to mess with magicians. When he does it we magicians are like, "Oh well the ace is still there, he's just hiding it with an emsley count so when he finally spreads the packets out to show there really aren't any aces hidden, it blows away magicians because they think they know what's going on. At least that's why I think he does it.

[DatoFarid]

@James1Wise true dat,

[BenziTrain]

@James1Wise I talk about it on the video. :)

[lahtovkristijan]

@TheMrSVC to fool you? :)

[liberalguy513]

The aces aren't shown to be in the packets before they vanish? Man, that is crap.

[GhostofLenoir]

Haha! That is devilishly bold.

[XLois0zero]

the move is working from all angles?

[TheMrSVC]

@XLois0zero As long as you do it smoothly without no hesitation, it does. Sorry for my bad english =)

[XLois0zero]

rong !! then don t disapear they change places

[dsavetark]

reminds me of david copperfield!!!..awesome trick....

[BenziTrain]

@dsavetark Thanks man! I hope you get as much pleasure out of performing it as I do!

[magicianmike1234]

Ben taught this to me a few years ago and it's one of the nicest, cleanest assemblies I use. But calling it bold is right on the money.

[TheALmagician]

is it impromptu??

[TheBlueCrownMagic]

@TheALmagician 100% impromptu!

[TheALmagician]

@TheBlueCrownMagic ok, thanks, i´m glad it is

[samrakaan]

@TheBlueCrownMagic can you please tell me the song

[334810025]

but too classic ... how about something new ??

[MagicByWest]

@334810025 Sometimes building on a classic can get you somewhere new.

[UnknownMagician93]

@334810025 I heard dan and dave release alot of that "new" buillshit. Get your head out of the "new" and learn from the masters of the past.

[334810025]

@UnknownMagician93  that's your opinion and I respect it .

[MarkHilkemeijer]

It's one thing that Mr Train apparently claims this classic creation (or at least, so it seems when reading the description, and I'm a big fan of Ben and his thinkings so that disappoints me), yet it is a second thing that it gets compared to McDonald's Aces.

The power of 'McDonald's Aces' is that you can show the aces before they disappear. This is absolutely nothing like that. It's just an 'Ace Assembly', one of the most classic ones of its kind.

Well performed though.. and nice deck.

[ACreation9x]

cooool !

[JohnomenalMagician]

@zachcloseupmagic yeah presentation is a big point but not any trick will work. dont think your spectators are stupid. ive seen very good magicians fail horribly because they went to far and tried blatantly obvious tricks. i like to rely on skill in addition to patter. i think this effect can be awesome in the right situation and im nearly certain that ill use it some time but this should not be the only handling you use.

[reb0urne]

no gimmick.

[BogdanVoicuOnline]

AWESOME !

[magnusofspades]

sick!

[MevenManip]

THE SONGGGGGG ????

[HugooM4]

cleanest assembly i've seen in a while

[GDillusions]

Both the routine and the cards are/were stunningly beautiful!

[superpenguinman17]

really easy, figured it out and without paying a single dime. But if i were clueless i would buy it.

[MagicByWest]

@superpenguinman17

Good thing you wont be learning the numerous alternative routines and handlings taught in the download then, including kick backs, transpos, etc.

[superpenguinman17]

@MagicByWest it wouldn't be that hard to figure out :P

[MagicByWest]

@superpenguinman17

Hard to say without actually seeing them. You probably are thinking something different than the work, and extensive thought Ben has put into these routines and alternatives. Any who, in the end, it's your loss.

[luuminhvuong]

cool......obviously everyone knows the first count....but showing all 4 cards at the end is kinda a surprise

[jimmygee5]

@luuminhvuong i think he did it to fool us magicians at our own game 

[luuminhvuong]

@jimmygee5 yeah he did. I just dont know if he used any gimmick . but this routine looks so clean

[jimmygee5]

@luuminhvuong oh ok :) i hope there's no gimmick, looks amazing :)

[James1Wise]

@luuminhvuong Actually that count isn't really needed. That's just to mess with magicians into thinking they knows what's going on, but like I said, it's not needed. =P

[MagicByWest]

A quick clarification from Mr. Black: "Bens method is different the handling looks very similiar and wish him the best which leaves me room for mine to be released independently. Great job Ben! Shane »

[JohnomenalMagician]

@zachcloseupmagic yeah presentation is a big point but not any trick will work. Dont think your spectators are stupid. Ive seen very good magicians fail horribly because they went to far and tried blatantly obvious tricks. I like to rely on skill in addition to patter.

[JohnomenalMagician]

@zachcloseupmagic not really^^ but a lot will work thats true. i guess its worth a try but it needs to be done with a lot of conviction

[MagicByWest]

@dn1611

"This is virtually identical to my 4 ace assembly routine that I have been teaching and performing for years now but props to Ben for independent creation just wanted to make a note of that for future intended purposes.

Shane "

Posted on the magic cafe.

Also, keep in mind that this is just the basic routine. Ben covers multiple alternative handlings, including "Bolder Assembly," and his takes on the O'Henry kickback, and

[BenziTrain]

@MagicByWest In reagards to this comment- spoke to Shane and it turns out his method is totally different- he only thought it was similar because he was fooled! If you want more info on his version give him a shout. Best, Ben.

[MagicByWest]

@BenziTrain

Hey Ben, it's Glenn. Saw that, and actually already posted a later comment on here about it too.

[MevenManip]

THE SONG PLEASE ???!! :D

[BenziTrain]

@MevenManip Yah, Alex, what IS the song?

[TomCook24]

What is the soundtrack here?

[liamacig]

he makes it look very professional but the trick is pritty simple.. it should work on layman when performed well.

[TheBlueCrownMagic]

More information about the Greens will be revealed in due time! For now, lets enjoy this wonderful routine! It has become one of my favorites! - Alex^

[akmalhafiz1]

@TheBlueCrownMagic hey what the name of this song i want to add in my routine

[JohnomenalMagician]

im really not sure if spectators will fall for this but its a nice idea

[Triple777Magic]

GREEEN?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!

[MrThomas210]

Green Crown Deck look freaking awesome.... I want one :O

[nailbittter]

Very nice work done on the assembly routine.

Best,

Jay Grill

[TheGamblersHand]

You shouldn't use the Green Crown Decks, it takes away from the effect. I couldn't keep my eyes off the backs :) Very nice indeed.

[FergieMagic201]

WOW!! Green Crowns!! When will those be released??

very good trick btw

[dunkonyooh]

Awesome Trick! When will green crowns be released?
