Hi, I have recently been looking at a brainwave deck and wondered if anyone has used one. I am not that in to gaff decks but I like the look of this one so I was hoping someone would have used it and could let me know what they think.

As it's not really an honest to God review you want, it might better off placed in Support & Tips. However I'm sure the mods will move it if it's wrong

In answer to the original question...

I have a Brainwave deck, and I think it's fantastic. I normally take it out with me.

You can use it for a million and one things...
Well. Maybe not that many, but a fair few.

I've opened a set with it before "If I told you to pick any card from a deck, which one do you think you'd pick?" then they name and it and you tell them that you'd want them to put it back in face up. Spread through and show their card IS the only one face up
You can use it as mentalism, as an out if a trick goes wrong, or you can do the whole "I'm handing you an ID. Take it out of the box, shuffle it, look through and find one card" blah blah blah.

There's hardly anything to remember, and generally they handle very smoothly

All in all... a worthwhile purchase

Thanks EckoZero for the quick reply. Looking like its going on the shopping list when I put my next order in.

No worries. Great little piece of kit to have around. Let me know when you get it and I'll PM you with a presentational idea I came up with... very strong stuff

Ordered! Along with another brick of bicycle cards and Torched and restored. Thanks again I will PM when it arrives should be tomorrow if not friday

Good girl

Hoever if your postal service is anything like as bad as mine... it could be whenever when it gets there

Bit late now but you may want to have a quick look at the ID as well - same idea but a bit different as it were. There are a lot of arguments for both ways but I personally prefer the ID .

Kati

yeah same. i rather prefer the invisble deck because you can sort of end of cleaner in a way. and you can do more than one effect with the ID rather than the Brainwave deck

This is not helping my C.U.P.S !!!!

I probably shouldn't mention the RaMa deck, the Wizard deck, the...ahem.

...Or Pop-eyed popper, McCombical Prediction deck (my fav!)

The shopping list grows for the ones of those I have not yet got!

Actually the McCombical Prediction deck looks quite fun. I wonder if I should.....aargh

Kati

Kati, you will probably like the Jumbo version better (and not very expensive)

nooooooooooo
