Anttack 2.0 by Christopher Ballinger

Chris Ballinger has completely reinvented his best-selling effect, “Anttack,” introducing new possibilities that were previously unimaginable.

The Classic Effect: A spectator freely selects a card, which features their favorite food drawn on it. After the card is lost in the deck, it is revealed to have ants printed on its back! With a quick shake, three-dimensional plastic ants cascade off the card and into the spectator’s hand. The card is then presented as a souvenir, now free of ants!

Effect #2: Shoot the Deck – A chosen card is lost in the deck, and the spectator forms a gun with their hand. Upon tapping the deck, it erupts with a loud BANG! Smoke envelops the deck as you reveal a card with a smoldering hole; it’s the selected card.

Effect #3: Wiping Pips – Sweep your hand over a selected card, causing all the pips to vanish, leaving a blank card with only the indices visible in the corners.

Effect #4: Bugging Out – After sketching a butterfly on the chosen card, the spectator initials one of its wings. The magician then animates the drawing, and a REAL BUTTERFLY emerges from the card, leaving only the spectator’s initials behind.

Effect #5: Chosen Inflation – Four coin stickers are affixed to the back of a signed card. One coin is selected, and with a flick, the other three transform into real coins that fall away, leaving just the chosen sticker on the card. (Compatible with most currencies; stickers not included.)

Effect #6: Anttack Switch – This is one of the cleanest switches available, allowing you to seamlessly replace dollar bills, torn corners, folded cards, and cards torn into quarters. The deck remains visible from all angles after the switch, leaving no trace of the replaced item.

The custom-designed gimmicks handle everything for you, making this perfect for both beginners and seasoned professionals!
