    How hard is it to pile shuffle a deck of 30 cards? No wear after these 3 years.

    People who don't sleeve are savages.

      I always found sleeving cards to be a suckers game. For the amount of money I'd need to spend to sleeve all my card games, I could just buy a new copy of any game I happen to wear out. Plus, sleeved cards are impossible to shuffle, are harder to store, and ruin the aesthetics of the game.

      ​@@Hedgehobbit You can sleeve a $100 game for $15 or you can spend another $100 to buy it again... Sleeving an entire collection is expensive but most people sleeve as they buy, Also you never owned a game that went out of print?

      @@stevebarnard8580 Of course I have out of print games, but I also have games where a second edition comes out (like the one in this video) which makes all the effort spent protecting those components wasted effort as I pack up all the pristine cards and place them in a box at the back of my closet right next to all the X-Wing 1.0 stuff.
      There is no better feeling that to open the box of one of your favorite games and see the maps, tokens, and cards are all scuffed and worn out. That's the way you know you got your money's worth. Sooooo satisfying.

      It's not like "wearing out" is a binary thing. Your cards will just get more and more worn out and gross over time. Seems like that's a plus for you though, so fine. I have no idea how sleeved cards would be impossible to shuffle. I would say they're easier, though maybe not with crappy penny sleeves.

    Ah yes, this is the kind of video I certainly do not need but that I endorse 100%. As someone who sleeves all their games (even if there's no shuffling involved) I am deeply grateful for anyone who incentivizes it! Plus you're always fun to watch.

    I sleeve player cards in Black, two sided cards in Clear, encounter cards in Brown, and permanent cards in White so they jump out and don’t get shuffled into the deck.

    • @ArkhamChronicle
      @ArkhamChronicle  3 года назад +2

      That's a great tip about the permanents!

      @@ArkhamChronicle Thank you! It works so great! When picking out Weaknesses, you just pick "blindfold" and then peek the color of the card back - if it happens to be White then you know to put in play right away, if Black you sneak it into your hand unknown of what is to come. And then otherwise its perfect for not accidentally shuffling any other permanents in where they shouldn't be!

    • @markusschmidt9260
      @markusschmidt9260 2 года назад

      We leave most permanents with trivial effects, like Charisma, Arcane Research or Adaptable in the binder and just take a note, that we added them to the deck. Saves quite some table space and is an even better protection of cards than sleeves. Permanents with more complex abilities, like the Covenants, we still put on the table for reference. But I must admit, bonded cards, or special cards like Diana's Dark Insight get more likely accidentally shuffled in than permanents, and there seems to be work around with sleeves for them.

    • @ArkhamChronicle

      Now you are asking. Looks like a KMC perfect fit or possibly a Gamegenic inner sleeve. Hope this helps!

  • @viktorg8346
    @viktorg8346 2 года назад

    I see you have there gamegenic keyforge sleeves. Have you used them for Arkham horror? It seems they have perfect size for AH. I am talking especially about inner sleeve. As farest I've read standard gamegenic inner sleeve is slightly to short and keyforge is one mm taller so that could potentially be a perfect fit.

  • @pajander
    @pajander 3 года назад

    Doesn't really concern Arkham LCG, but if you have a game with an insert that only fits unsleeved cards, a pro gamer move is to use the Dragon Shield Perfect Fit Sealable ones.

      It is in the back of an old Ultimate Guard catalogue. Sadly they don’t make them anymore.
      Gamegenic has a downloadable PDF you might find helpful.

  • @travis3571

    For the budget conscious, I would use penny sleeves for encounter cards since they get shuffled alot and sleeve your player cards with whatever you like since you only need maybe 40 Max in any given campaign. Locations, agenda and acts and story assets that show only for that one scenario can be unsleeved because you're rarely going to manipulate them with the exception of explore decks in Forgotten age which you should sleeve like a mythos deck

    It’s good to see that since FF is republishing all of their old games, ( with higher prices) the Arkham Chronicles is doing the same by recycling older videos-
