An ace assembly routine that is a bit peculiar, since aces end up returning to their original place.  

In this routine, we go through the different types of Ace Assemblies. The routine is divided in three steps: Classic Ace Leader, Progressive Assemby and Reverse Assembly. In each step, four packets are made; in each packet, there are three indifferent cards and one Ace. 1- Classic Ace Leader: All the Aces travel instantly in one packet (the Ace Leader packet). 2- Progressive Assembly: The first Ace disappears from the first packet, and is found with the Ace in the second packet. Then the two Aces disappear, and end up with the Ace of the third packet. The process is repeated one last time, and the four Aces are found in the Leader packet! 3- Reverse Assembly: In this variation, we start with a Classic Leader Ace, and for the climax, all Aces mysteriously and instantly travel into their original packet! Guaranteed impact!  

The magician shows the four Aces, and twelve indifferent cards (which are the 12 court cards of the deck, to make the contrast as clear as possible). The cards are arranged in four packets: one Ace under each packet, three indifferent cards on top. The Aces magically pass one by one into the leader packet. Each time, the packets of four cards are shown clearly: no extra cards, no missing cards. The trick is completely clean at every stage of the routine. This is as close to perfection as you can get!  

A version of the "Cannibals Cards" designed to really fool magicians. Two cards are chosen freely. They disappear one by one when introduced among the four Aces, which are presented as cannibal cards. Everything is clean at the end, the deck is handed out for examination. Impact guaranteed!  

A complete routine with multiple effects, games and comedies with the audience... We start with the Saga of the Aces: they mysteriously travel several times in different ways. Then we end with a kind of game, where the spectator loses repeatedly!
