Magic: The Gathering is a collectible card game that was first introduced in 1993. It quickly gained popularity and has become one of the most popular trading card games in the world. One of the unique aspects of Magic: The Gathering is the concept of a "deck" or a collection of cards that a player uses during gameplay. Most standard decks in Magic: The Gathering consist of 60 cards, but there is a specific format known as "Magic 30 cards" that reduces the size of the deck to just 30 cards. The Magic 30 cards format is often used for casual and beginner players who are just getting started with the game. It allows for simpler and faster gameplay, as players have fewer cards to keep track of and make decisions with.
Rick Rossini - Magic & Motivation
On January 22nd, 2021, the Rotary Club of Cambridge Sunrise was joined by famed performer, Rick Rossini.
Through magic & fun, Rick demonstrated how he's used his talents in the world of business and marketing.
You can learn more about Rick from his website: http://rossinimagic.com/ His official bio:RICK ROSSINI THE MAGICAL MOTIVATOR – Official Bio
Rick Rossini is the original Magical Motivator; a professional speaker, entertainer, magician, illusionist, writer, and promotional, marketing and communication consultant for over thirty years.
A graduate of McMaster University with a background in Psychology, Rick Rossini has coupled his scholastic education with his many years of magical knowledge and real world experiences to produce a fresh, new approach to “entertainment and edutainment (entertainment, education and motivation)”. Magic, message, comedy, theatre, audience interaction and illusion are perfectly blended to produce presentations that are as mind-boggling as they are entertaining and motivating!
Rick started studying the art of magic at the young age of eight (“I wasted my first seven years” he adds) after seeing his first magician at his Cub Christmas party. Since that time Rossini has elevated his magic prowess to an all time high not only as a master magician and entertainer, but as a much sought after magical creator, business and educational speaker, writer, consultant and producer of Corporate Theatre.
In fact in the last thirty years, Rick has worked his magical presentations as special “promotional, educational and motivational” vehicles for hundred of companies and hundreds of thousands of people all throughout the world.
Rick Rossini has created unique ways to make hundreds of new products “appear out of thin air” for Companies like Apple, Chrysler, DSC, Hyundai, Nissan, Ford, Kawasaki, Radio Shack, Ciba Geigy, Warner Lambert, Bayer, Alberto Culver, MDS Laboratories, Seagrams, Robin Hood, Cartier, and Hilton Hotels!
He has created novel methods to train, communicate and “get the message across” in meetings and edutainment programs for Corporations like Ault Foods, IBM, Microsoft, Effem Foods, Wall Data, Nortel, Kenworth, Tab Datasystems, Energizer, Johnson & Johnson, Kodak, CIBC, Brock Solutions, The Bay, Kinney Shoes, Voxcom, Quaker Oats and The Investors Group!
Rossini has created special promotions and custom productions to “sell the sizzle AND the steak” for Business’s like American Standard, Bayer, AC Delco, Eli Lilly, Petro Canada, Adams Brands, Agfa, Hewlett-Packard, Young and Rubicam, Xerox, Kimberly-Clark, Janssen-Ortho, ESSO Imperial Oil, Deloitte Touche, Aventis, Dupont, Mortgage Alliance, and GlaxoSmithKiline!
During this time Rick has worked with such notables as Jim Carey, Kurt Browning, Michael Burgess, Eugene Levy, Bruno Gerussi, Keir Dullea, Gordon Thomson, Ross Petty, Karen Kain, David Carradine, Burton Cummings and Rick Mercer to name but a very few, and in some of the finest venues around the globe.
Yes, from the Boardrooms of New York to the stage of the Sony Centre in Toronto, Rick Rossini has written, created, produced and performed for a myriad of live presentations, corporate and educational productions, television, film and video programs, and theatrical productions. All designed to inspire, excite, entertain, educate and motivate!
However one of the greatest joys Rick gets is the ability to use his special magic to “give something back” and to help others see the real magic that exists in themselves and the real world. And as such he has been able to help many organizations such as Amnesty International, Big Brothers and Sisters Association, Camp Quality, Easters Seals Society, Halton Women’s Place Shelter, International Special Olympics, Juvenile Diabetes Foundation, Muscular Dystrophy Association, the Toronto Hospital for Sick Children, and the United Way, make their magic happen.
He is also an on going instructional speaker and supporter of Rotary’s Camp Enterprise (16 plus years now and counting), and for many years was on the Board of Directors (as well as Director of Promotion and Communications) for one of Canada’s largest outdoor music festivals, Burlington’s Sound Of Music Festival. Rick has also developed a unique bully awareness program entitled “Band Together – No Bullies Allowed” that is currently being offered to elementary and secondary schools.
Rossini’s magical life is further enhanced by his wife Suzanne (recently retired Superintendent of Education in charge of Special Education and Twenty-first Century Learning for the Halton District Catholic School Board) who helps to creatively add high educational values to Rick’s work, their twenty one year old year old daughter Jacqueline (an up and coming set design for Movies and TV) who provides the always important kid’s magical perspective into Dad’s world, and of course the family’s golden retriever Oscar (who needs to be walked at least twice a day). They live at Magic Manor in Carlisle, Ontario, Canada.
He is the author of dozens of articles and special reports on the art of magic, marketing and edutainment. No doubt about it, Rossini makes magic happen!
Rick Rossini has floated a person in mid air surrounded by over 20,000 onlookers, made motorcycles, cars, tigers, hundreds of “special messages”, and even Canada’s top 50 CEO’s magically “appear out of thin air”! Imagine what he can do for you! There may be no tigers in your event, but he does promise some special fun and to have your audience leave informed, motivated, rejuvenated, and re-looking at what they do in a very powerful way!

About?
Schools: Are you looking for assembly programs that reinforce safe schools, important curriculum and social awareness issues, and creativity in a proven, powerful and unique way – and for different grade levels?
Libraries: Would you like to offer your members (of all ages) some exciting and unique live presentations that not only entertain and educate, but adds to life long learning skills and stimulates the importance of reading?
Special Events: Are you looking to create a Special Event such as Family Day, Holiday Celebration, March Break, Award and Recognition Event (to name but a few) that entertains AND educates in an exciting fun way – and at the same time?
Shopping Centres: Would you like a custom designed promotion that not only attracts and entertains your audience / customers in a unique way, but informs and motivates them with an important message as well?
If you answered YES to the above, then I can help.
My name is Rick Rossini and I am The Magical Motivator.
I am a unique combination of entertainer, educator and motivator who for over 30 years has helped schools, libraries, organizations, and people just like you accomplish these amazing goals, and much more!
You can check out my background and biography by clicking here.
I started studying the art of magic at the young age of eight (“OK -I wasted my first seven years”) after seeing my first magician at our Cub Christmas party.
Since that time I have “studied – worked like crazy – performed – and studied some more (this part never ends does it) ” to become not only as a master magician and entertainer, but a much sought after magical creator, business and educational speaker, writer, performance consultant and master of, what I like to call, EDU-TAINMENT (the combination of entertainment – education – motivation).
Edu-tainment is a powerful educational process where magic, message, comedy, theatre, audience interaction and illusion are perfectly blended to produce presentations that are as mind-boggling as they are entertaining, instructional and motivating – and for all ages!
I like to think of it this way. “The audience is having such a great time laughing and clapping, they are not even aware they are learning – and that’s pretty powerful stuff!” Especially when it can further translate into take away knowledge and memories.
So what now?
Over the next few pages I have laid out some of my most powerful presentations and would like to invite you to take a look at them and see if they might be a good fit for what you need to accomplish:
Band Together – No Bullies Allowed

Please keep in mind I have many more programs that are available, and I love to create customized presentations. So if you are interested in something you do not see, please give me a call.
As well ALL of my presentations offer a 100% MONEY BACK GUARANTEE! If you are not happy with what I do, you do not pay.
So please take a few minutes to look over the “edu-tainment” I offer. As well check out my BLOG for my articles, ideas, links to useful stuff, where I’ve just been, etc – just to get more of a sense of what I am all about and if I’m a good fit for you.
Thanks for stopping by and I hope we get a chance to make magic happen for your group!
Rick Rossini – The Magical Motivator
It allows for simpler and faster gameplay, as players have fewer cards to keep track of and make decisions with. This format also makes it easier for newer players to build a competitive deck with a limited collection of cards. In a Magic 30 cards deck, players still follow the basic rules of the game, such as casting spells, summoning creatures, and attacking opponents.
However, with fewer cards in the deck, players must carefully consider their card choices and strategize accordingly. This can add an extra layer of challenge and excitement to the game. The Magic 30 cards format is also commonly used for draft and sealed events, where players build their decks on the spot using a limited pool of cards. This format encourages creativity and adaptability, as players must work with the cards they have available to them. Overall, the Magic 30 cards format offers a unique and accessible way to play Magic: The Gathering. Whether you're a casual player looking for a quick and simple game or a competitive player looking for a new challenge, the Magic 30 cards format provides an enjoyable and engaging gameplay experience..

Overall, I would not recommend "Mgic 30 cards" to anyone looking for a quality card game.

I had high hopes for "Mgic 30 cards" but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The concept of the game is interesting, but the execution was poor. The cards were poorly printed, with faded colors and blurry text. The gameplay itself was confusing, with unclear rules and no clear objective. It felt like a rushed and unfinished product. I would not recommend purchasing "Mgic 30 cards" unless significant improvements are made.

I was really excited to try out "Mgic 30 cards", but it ended up being a big letdown. The cards themselves were flimsy and easily torn, making them difficult to handle. The artwork on the cards was lackluster and uninspiring. The gameplay was also quite dull, with limited strategies and repetitive actions. Overall, I found "Mgic 30 cards" to be a boring and poorly designed game. I would not recommend it to anyone looking for an engaging and enjoyable card game.
