Default Ed Marlo - Gimmicked Decks
Yesterday I was reading from an old book from the 1940's by Ed Marlo. I was floored when I read that he used a gimmicked deck for Triumph. He was explaining how to use the rough/smooth princple with a stripper deck to do Triumph. The reason I was so surprised is that I have learned a few of his ways to do Triumph with a normal deck. I believe Ed Marlo to be one of the best cardicians of all times. This just goes to show that we all need to broaden our magical horizons.
