What? No Quad-sleeving? I come here for the latest and greatest innovations in cardboard and cardboard accessories. Hell, it's even backwards compatible with double-sleeved cards.
edit: I should mention, I have been experimenting in card-sleeving/lamination technologies. The tech isn't quite there yet, but with enough grants, I think we can get there!
Why stop at 4?
Get ready, next theyll tell you to laminate your cards
are you ok ? you seemed really bored the entire video
Where can I find your Sliver EDH Deck list that you seem to be sleeving here?? Thanks Prof for all your amazing content! Using your videos to build three commander decks right now
On the next Episode: How to apply a kevlar vest to every single one of your cards
HEY Then we'd finally get to play at school in the USA
@@BigChungus-fl7ss i see the headlines: "students life saved by mtg cards".
Im pretty sure we have already reached the point where a commander deck could stop a bullet tbh
depleted uranium reactive armor (transparent one side)
Like how Cable slipped the coin that saved Deadpool into his vest in Deadpool 2, but with a Magic card lol
I actually quad-sleeve my Commander decks. I use a regular penny-sleeve, then a clear Dragon Shield, then I use a laminator to completely seal the card, then I place the whole thing in an acrylic PSA Holder Case. The deck is about 33" tall when stacked up, which really adds to the intimidation factor. I use a few suitcases and a Sherpa to haul my decks to and from the LGS.
...
If your entire deck isn't graded and slabbed, are you even _really_ playing Magic?
But how’s the shuffle feel?
@@Maximumoverbite I have to use a concrete truck to shuffle, so it feels a little awkward....
@@ninjanoodle2674Little awkward but at least you won’t be topdecking nothing but lands!
Oh man, I've missed this kind of content. I'm so happy that Wizards actually went long enough without releasing a new product or screwing something up for the Professor to make his first ordinary video in, what, seven years?
THE OLD INTRO IS BACK YOOO
We play magic around 6 hours a week, always in the pub.
I can confirm when someone spills a pint next to a single, or even a double, sleeved deck, there is anger.
Triple sleeve is exactly the solution we've been looking for!
I'm more of the opinion that sealable inners in a double sleeve setup is enough to go by, but I do understand there's a place for triple sleeving too. Not everyone can get sealables and some also want to protect their normal sleeves. Plus, it can add that sense of security if the effort and cost is worth it to you.
I have to wonder though. Does a spilled drink immediately mean the outer sleeve is getting replaced, or are they all good when they've dried out?
@@Magicannon_ I use sealed inners on stuff like mana crypts, mix diamonds, duals etc.
Outers are usually ok if you get some paper towels and dry them off straight away, worse result is just a bit sticky and can clean that.
@@Magicannon_ sleeves to protect sleeves, this is the kind of stuff capitalism is eager for.
@@igormorgado - The extra layer of sleeves isn't to protect the sleeves, it's to protect the card. If you spill water on some single-sleeved cards, the liquid can still get into the top/open edge of the sleeve. Most of the card will be protected, but the top edge will still get water damaged. If it's double sleeved, that top edge of the card is protected from the liquid which now would have to seep all the way to the bottom of the card to reach the gap before it would damage the bottom edge of the card. The sealable inner sleeves protect the bottom edge as well, but still have a little gap on the bottom corners.
Triple sleeving seems like overkill, but at least from what I can tell this video is more or less a joke (a dry, _dry_ joke), although, this is a real product, so at least someone doesn't thing so, lol.
I seal all my cards in 3/4 inch resin
Prof can always make me laugh with this stuff
Dude, I have missed this type of content on the channel for a while now even if this one in particular might be satire(makes it even better honestly). I used to rewatch the sleeve and deck box reviews all the time. Only thing missing is the durability tear test. Wish you the best in the future to you and your team, Prof.
Pro tip: don't stop sleeving until you've spent more money on sleeves than cards for any given deck. It's the only way to ensure complete protection.
Why you gotta attack us like that man
I sleeve my non-TCGs with Dragon Shield inner sleeves, and some of them ARE cheaper than the protection :/
I prefer having the final outer sleeve opening on the bottom, it helps to prevent dust falling into the top of the sleeve.
Same
And is compatible with normal double sleeving orientation, which is a win.
@@erfunk except that those that already didnt like the dust falling in also double sleeved it the other way around.
@@tymenvanessen3119 I never thought about double sleeving upside down and I hate dust falling in my sleeves. Now I have to go home and flip a few hundred sleeves around.
instructions unclear, dust now falling into bottom of sleeves :(
Wow this is nostalgic. The intro, the camera angles, the general vibe. Thanks for this blast from the past!
With how thorough the Professor is with sleeving, I kind of had hoped for the full stairway to protection heaven: A size comparison of an unsleeved commander deck, up to a triple sleeved one. Also please give me a call once we have options for quintuple sleeving, and the decks become as tall as a small child, or a medium sized dog. This way I can do my daily stretching routine while also enjoying a game of magic.
"Also please give me a call once we have options for quintuple sleeving"
These sleeves don't look much bigger than the regular outer sleeves... I wonder if they'd fit in penny sleeves? And once you're in penny sleeves, you can fit that in a toploader.
This is gold. The delivery was spot on. Love this style of humor.
I love how Professor is trying to be extra dry on top of what his older videos were, and it's cracking him up. Spot on mix of knowledge and entertainment.
One of the best videos I have ever seen. I was going to ask about that strange green contraption you had, but you wove that in flawlessly. I also love the understated anouncement of The Academic. Bravo, my friend, bravo.
Love your humor Prof! And thank you for all that you do for this community! I hope you're doing well 😊
One legit use for the Clear Outers would be to get the coveted Dragon Shield Matte shuffle feel for your UltraPro Offical MTG art Sleeves.
And at that point you can just skip the inner sleeve and still get the effectiveness of double sleeving.
@@Jrizzle7426 yeah very true!
ohhh i didnt think of this... those ultra pro sleeves look good... but id be lying if i said they shuffled/separated greart
100% this! So happy to finally not rip my ultra pros but still have "blinged out"/official art when I want to.
Just found jace the mind sculptor sleeves so i need to triple sleeve my foil dimir shadow deck... But idk if my 80+ sidewinder deck box is gonna be able to hold it lol... Ima try it tho.
The flat monotone had me expecting a joke, bit disappointed it didn’t happen, but it kind of makes the whole thing funnier.
I have one triple sleeved deck, it’s a roughly $2500 Prossh deck, and the sleeved them selves were $40 import from JP in packs that only had 60 sleeves in each pack, so I had to buy em twice for my deck 💀
Totally worth it, and the whole deck, dice and tokens are all in the red/grey kickstarter deck Prof !
So thanks !
That sounds pretty awesome i cant lie😮
Character Guards, right? I have mine too for my Tymna&Tana. I wonder why they sell the packages with specifically 60 sleeves. All of the illustrated sleeves sold on Comiket are also on 60 sleeves...
Dayum, and I thought my $150 Atraxa deck was worth triple sleeving lmao
YOOOOO a fellow Prossh player!! I finally picked up the single Meathook I needed for mine, and I can 100% understand why that needs a triple sleeve, bahahaha!!
@@amberhernandez nice ! I still need to get a copy of meathook
Dear Gonti, love Sophie.
I absolutely LOVE this dry style of humor in your videos, Professor!
"My wild dreams about cardboard and cardboard accessories."
Okay, shut it down. The Professor is turning into Hank Hill.
Reminds me of some of the first videos I watched from Prof😊
This video was PAUSE (Pause) very entertaining. The excitement was palpable. Thumbs upward Dr Professor!
This was fantastic, makes me miss the old how to videos.
I hope you know Professor that watching this felt like coming home. A safe, nostalgic comfort.
Please do a "how to quad sleeve" next year, and then a quint sleeve, and so on every year.
Triple-sleeving a Nightmare? Pretty subtle, Prof.
Glad to have this great video just in time to triple sleeve From Cute to Brute!
My favorite part was the touch where Prof points to the right of the video for the Double Sleeved video only to have it, of course, pop up on the left. Perfection.
The end theme music is always awesome. Makes me expect everyone in shuffle up in play is going to jump into the air in celebration looking at a camera in the sky pointed down and there is a freeze frame that then rolls into credits like a bad 80s movie.
Time to use Matte Clear & Matte Outers to get the Double Matte action
The “view that video here!” and it showing up on the other side absolutely killed me.
This is such a funny video. I love it.
I haven't been playing magic for years now. I still watch your channel all the time. I love your sense of humor. Cheers.
This is bringing back some memories. Love the classic old school TCC vibe.
Triple sleeves?... Just play with proxies and carry your graded deck around in a bulletproof briefcase at that point
I think out of all of your videos I laughed the most at this one. The dry delivery is SO out ot character but you nailed it. Also I'm extremely excited that your deck box is going retail!
The dry humor in this video is so well received. Honestly the funniest I've seen yet. Bravo!
I love videos like this. The dry delivery, the heavily-overplayed "acting," and small gags spread throughout turns a simple video on sleeving into a great watch!
Small thing but I love that you're doing 4k content
This video has given me so much joy. The Deadpan delivery was wonderful
my friend, you are such a goof, thank you for being who you are; we love it. good video!
4:39 ‘Impressive. Very Nice. Let’s see Brian Kibler’s shuffle’
I don't own any card games, yet this video was so pleasing to watch. Thank you.
That phone bit got a good chuckle out of me. Thanks prof!
The dry approach was well thought out. Good stuff
I’ve been running a 60 card Pokemon deck triple sleeved for a month and I just now learned how to shuffle it quickly, it was quite the experience the first time I tried shuffling it! It also fits tightly into my 80+ double sleeved deckbox 😅
Nice, do you have any tips for shuffling a 60 card triple sleeve deck? thanks!
My best tip is just to shuffle loosely! Let them fall into each other instead of trying to move them together. Once you get accustomed to the (lack of) pressure it’s ready!@@AlastairGames
Well, if you're tripling up on cards that are already double-sleeved in the popular inner-sleeve-opening-downward and outer-sleeve-opening-upward format, you could just add the third sleeve with the opening downward to get both benefits of time saved as well as max protection.
Back to the roots content; I appreciate it.
Loved everything about the acting and editing in this vid!
I was gonna dismiss this whole thing as insanity, but then he pulled out the exact green box I keep my favorite deck in. I..might be seriously considering this now...
That Kibler knock was hilarious.
Thank you, now my precon deck(which is worth less than 3 drag shields) is triple-protected
As a Buffy-Fan I was very surprised to see this product of Dragonshield. I am hooked xD
The fact I can't make out immediately if it's a joke or not is why I love this channel lol
Love and miss this old style of video ❤
I am super excited for the academic coming to game stores next year. That is huge and exciting news!
This was informative and the deadpan goofiness is right up my alley 😂 I don’t know how you keep a straight face 😂
I don’t know why I love the professors no enthusiasm jokes. It’s just so funny to me.
I got a laminator for Christmas last year and have been contemplating laminating my EDH decks. Ultimate protection.
Those clear overs arent even out yet, now im excited
I want the Professor answering the phone to be my new background. It needs to be a gif of him just picking the phone out and the hold it out.
Please do another in this series but quadruple sleeve the cards (final layer being top-loaders) then show off a commander deck so done, It'd be such a sight to behold.
this was a super helpful guide from someone I trust in the community.
I just played someone who triple sleeved their Jasmine Boreal of the Seven deck. You know. The Vanilla Creature Tribal deck? Never thought I’d see a triple sleeved non-foil Savannah Lions, but here we are.
I love the enthusiasm in this video.
Honestly, my favorite video of the year, so far. Like, out of all of them, on TH-cam.
🅰️➕
The dryness of this video is matched only by the dryness of my triple sleeved cards after a fellow player topples their 72oz Mountain Dew Code Red, causing a delicious deluge of soft drink to cascade down the play area. Me and my proxies thank you, Prof 👍
My hippo Commander deck has thick pro fit inner sleeves, starcitygames hippo art sleeves and outer sleeves. Triple sleeved and fits beautifully in my Academic box. Love it!
So glad to hear that your deck box will be coming to gameshops
Y’all remember that guy playing turns in modern who quadruple sleeved his deck?
Before these dragon shield outers were out, many people near me would use those hard plastic sleeves most people use to ship cards in with the deck double sleeved inside.
We called them "Click-clack" decks because that's what it sounds like when you shuffle them. Glad to see there is a more practical option now
Don't know if you can, but Palms Off Gaming's sleeves feel good, worth a look imo. Their binders are great too.
What is this, a crossover episode with the past???
Love it
The academic is coming next year! So hype. I love mine. Can’t wait to get another
I think triplw aleeving is ridiculous but I will like this video anyway due to the delivery from Prof. Love it! ❤
I'm so glad Dragon Shield brought these out. I've done triple sleeving for 2 of my Cardfight Vanguard decks using Dragon Shield standard sleeves and the seal and shuffle feel is amazing.
I look forward to transferring this over to my Omanth, Locus of Creation commander deck
really digging the PBS style opener - sincerely viewers like you!
I actually do quadruple sleeved my commanders. First I use a perfect fit sleeve, them i use a normal standard sleeve, for the next one i use a penny sleeve and for the last one i put it in to a top loader, when im done i put a premium bag sleeve to protect the toploader and put it in to a ziploc bag trying to compress the air inside as much a i can.
Soon as the ring tone kicked in I liked the vid.
So many "That's what she said moments"! A+ content
This was voiced with the exact amount of gusto deserving of the legendary triple sleeve
6:09 "you may view that video here" had me in stiches
"its maximum protection" lol. The old, "its for you", never gets old.
Really nailed the enthusiasm of having a triple sleeved 100 card deck
Ive been thinking these accessory product review style videos all week! Thank you Prof!
6:14 Thank you! That was my hardest laugh in my entire day! 😂
thank you for the video, I can't wait for the product to come out so I can have a point of comparison as I currently use kmc character guard (clear, silver and gold).
I had no idea Dragonshield made outer sleeves. I have been using the KMC outers for some time to protect art sleeves that aren't made anymore, but they crack/chip in the corners and split a lot with shuffling. I was just looking for alternatives before ordering another pack of KMC's and was surprised to see a new video from the Prof on this exact topic. Yey.
2:28 This right here is the reason I will be getting that academic game box 😂
I have a Merfolk tribal deck filled brim with promo and altered cards. I've been triple sleeving it with sealable inners. People sometimes laugh at how tall my deck is, but this is definitely one of the best investments as it not only prevents damage from external sources, it also kinda mitigates foil curling... Next step is puting everything in toploaders, but that might be excessive
A brilliant return to form!
I play my Aesi deck in double sleeved and in top loaders. Shuffling after tutoring a land four or five times a game is a bit of a pain but it's worth it.
2:27 feels like something out of a dave lynch film
I hope that all is well for everyone here and I hope that you all have a great day today.
Last week I was in my LGS playing a game of Commander when I accidentally spilled a gallon of gasoline all over the play table and when I went to clean it up I accidentally dropped a lit match. Everyone else's cards were ruined, but mine were okay because I spent 10 hours triple-sleeving my deck. Thank God, because this happens quite frequently.
very Dave Spokesman vibes on this one, absolutely love it
It feels like it’s been years since the professor has done a sleeve/deck box review
Solid infomercial vibes 10/10
