Fraz Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Seen a LOT of japanese players double sleeve their cards, which is why their decks always look a lot taller than ours. Recently started doing it with normal yugi size sleeves then with clear Magic sleeves and quite liked the look and feel of it. Opinions on double sleeving?

~ P O L A R I S ~ Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 Eh, why not right? ;D Like single sleeving, but with double the benefits at no real cost except the cost of the sleeves, which isn't all that much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dad Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 I've never thought about it much except when I put valuable trades in my binder. That's about the only time I double-sleeve, but I wouldn't mind trying this in a duel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombiepromking Posted November 4, 2009 Report Share Posted November 4, 2009 The point? I might try it just to see how it is. Black Ultra-Pro sleeves over clear Ultra-Pro sleeves sounds nice. Off-Topic: Does anyone know a good place to find those super-special awesome holo-sleeves with the MTG looking images on them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shadowferret Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I used to double-sleeve my cards a lot. I liked the mix of green and orange. But then I started buying Deck Boxes, and they wouldn't fit anymore. T_T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Father Wolf Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 only double sleeve the extra deck, because ur not allowed to double sleeve here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lazer Yoshi Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I guess it's kinda cool. I sometimes end up messing up the sleeves though. :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
daboss144 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 This probably should have been mentioned under the card-protection thread, but Double-Sleeving is illegal in most regional tournaments and at nationals. I suggest getting high-quality player's choice sleeves that lock your cards in so you don't have the need to double-sleeve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flash Flyer - Sakura Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I personally don't double sleeve my cards because I can't fit them into my deck box if I do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daboss144 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 Wow, how this thread has digressed. The only good thing I have to say is that it didn't turn into a JD discussion topic... OT: I will admit, I definitely Double-Sleeve my extra deck. Especially in Vayu Turbo, you must do this. Off-Topic ish: TRIPLE Tempest Magician with TRIPLE Blackwing Synchros???? You may want to reconsider that...you're spamming your extra deck like a walrus in a canning market. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest PikaPerson01 Posted November 5, 2009 Report Share Posted November 5, 2009 I used to. Then I realized they took up too much space in my deck box. It was either a double sleeved deck and nothing else, or a single sleeved deck, my side, my extra, and a pair of dice. Also, my locals banned it after a while. I forgot why. Something about stacking or something. Sure, it grants a bit more protection but... meh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iAmNateXero Posted November 8, 2009 Report Share Posted November 8, 2009 Konami relaxed a lot of the rules in Organized play. For instance, if you draw an extra card in the beginning of the game, instead of a game loss, both players just reshuffle and you get a warning. Double sleeve and Metallic sleeves also got relaxed. You won't get penalized for it any more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
