We are in the entertainment business. At the end of the day all you need to do is ask yourself if you put a smile on someones face, had them ponder reality for a moment, etc. THIS to me is the most important part of our craft. I could care less how many sleights a magician knows. All I want to do is have a good time and create wonder and excitement for spectators. The number of effects or sleights a magician knows has absolutely nothing to do with their entertainment value or worth as a magician. That being said, I don't know how Criss is with cards, but I did watch him perform his coin matrix routine/copentro and it is was phenomenal.
