MK CONTROL (ENGLISH VERSION)
markobi
After years of research and real-world use (and after requests from hundreds of magicians, both online and in person), Markobi presents the MK Control (Markobi Control): an extremely precise and multifunctional card control — rough and raw behind the scenes, yet velvet lace in the spectator’s experience.
The MK Control allows you to control one or several cards to the top, to the bottom, to any given position, and even perform simultaneous multiple controls (one part to the top or to a specific position, the other to the bottom or another position).
Originally, the MK Control was born from an accident: Markobi was trying to reproduce a control by Ernest Earick after seeing Meven Dumontier perform it on video. The final result bore no resemblance to the original technique — but a new path had quietly opened for the future without him realizing it.
First used in hundreds of videos and praised by magicians in the comments, Markobi initially believed the control was too delicate for real-world conditions. With time and experience, he realized it worked — eventually integrating it into his everyday professional Swiss-army-knife toolkit.
… until it was used in the FISM act that made him World Champion, and later in front of Penn & Teller, to win over our favorite duo*

Let’s be honest — this is not an all-terrain technique. If you are looking for a new magical superpower, do not buy this project — you will be disappointed.
The MK Control is formidable when used in the right place, at the right moment, within the right structure.
Program Content:
- Technical foundations
- Variations (single card, multiple cards, complex distributions)
- Direct applications, effects and routines
- Historical background and references
- Timing, angles and ideal conditions
- Common mistakes to avoid
- Marco’s philosophy and psychology thoughts
Filmed with 5 cameras, the project explores the technique from every angle, to understand precisely what makes it possible — or not.
The MK Control is aimed at those who want to diversify their arsenal, with a rather special technique, not universally consensual in its construction, and which, under certain conditions, will offer the perfect control.
