I saw these cards on Card-Shark's site but am surprised not to have found any comments about them, especially as these cards are by Luke Jermay.
Does anyone know about the cards and the routines given? |

I saw a video of it where they show a red backed deck, the magician shows that the deck is made of alphabet cards, mentioning that since there are 26 letters and 52 cards, there are 2 of each letter. The spectator then names the name "Paula", the magician then goes through and removes the letters P-A-U-L-A and then flips them face down to show that they all have blue backs.

I wonder if you can show the deck to be red after the blue card reveal??

There's the alpha deck ( normal thickness) by Jermay and the Alphawave which are double decker thickness.
Both around the same price $30.00. I'd like to hear more. What if someone gives you a name Annabella? |

I didn't get this (yet), because if I were to design an effect with real powers I wouldn't perform like this.
If I could predict your word, I wouldn't get all the letters mixed up and put in a different coloured deck, I would predict it and reveal it in a more interesting way. This does seem like a good solution to a bit of a problem, I just think ultimately there are better ways to do similar things.

It all depends on the "powers" you are thinking of
