If "Entourage" didn't exist, I would probably like this even more. As it is, they feel like very similar effects, except in one case, the spectator is choosing one of the 4 queens, and in other other, they're choosing one of the 4 kings.

There are reasons why you might like this one better... the finish, with the card missing a head is pretty surprising... however, such an unusual reveal is probably going to make the spectator want to handle the card... but they can't. Not that they can handle the cards in Entourage either, but this effect feels like it gives them more reason to want to.

The other reason I prefer Entourage is that the choice there is a 1 in 4 completely free choice. In this effect, there's is a bit of a force involved, so it's not a completely free 1 in 4 choice.

Still, I do think this is a worthwhile effect... it's just that if forced to choose, I'd prefer Entourage.
