A second quantum leap now allows the markings to be read from a relatively slim spread of cards on the table - or even a fan of cards held in the hands. So subtle in fact is the OMS that with the first edition of ELITES - many magicians complained that they'd been sent an unmarked version!ĭrawing on the feedback from many hundreds of performers, the OMS has evolved significantly over the years and in this version the markings are located in all four corners for the very first time - welcoming lefties into the ELITES family.

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. 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 OMS has an ingeniously hidden marking mechanic that is readable with extreme speed, at great range and even in poor light. The cards themselves feature the latest revision of the unique OPTICAL MARKING SYSTEM (OMS), a powerful 'reader' system designed specifically for the use of magicians and mentalists (as opposed to many decks designed for the gambling world).
