Cardistry: MPC Beta ONE Playing Cards

As seen during Cardistry-Con 2018, Hong Kong, the MPC Beta ONE Playing Cards represents a huge milestone in the history of MPC. Every one of the 200 attendees received a deck. This was the first time anyone outside of MPC got to test out the new card stock and finish which has been in development for close to 3 years.

It is completely re-engineered and designed specifically for the mesmerizing art of Cardistry.

The concept which determined the aesthetics of this deck was created by Alex Tse who aptly named the deck called The ONE for several reasons. The design is based on the number 1. This is the 1st deck ever that uses this completely new development by MPC on playing cards. The aim was to create the best possible deck in terms of feeling and handling for performing Cardistry and card magic.

The back design is made out of two number 1’s diagonally facing each other on opposite corners. It was designed in a way that fully complements and enhances card flourishes such as card fans, springs, cuts, and spins to name just a few. A borderless design is adopted in order to accentuate each and every move performed.

The card stock used on The ONE is nothing like you’ve ever handled before. The Linen Air Light is thinner, lighter, softer and possesses the perfect level of stiffness needed for amplifying your Cardistry and card magic skills.

Meanwhile, the finish fully complements the Linen Air Light and produces a handling experience that’s nothing short of amazing. Silky smooth for fans, spreads and with an element of stickiness for cards to stick together, to your fingers as and when you need them to. MPC call it the Beta finish. Limited to 5500 copies and available now on Kickstarter. Pledge starts at $14.
