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!

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.

Dragon Shield card sleeve designers were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn't stop to think if they should
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?

@@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.

The value i find with outer sleeves is not that you can triple sleeve your stuff, but it allows you to play card sleeves with pictures on the back of them that are usually peel-ey
only thing missing was the water test also we're getting ever closer to the magical 7 sleeves for one card
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.

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.
Wow this is nostalgic. The intro, the camera angles, the general vibe. Thanks for this blast from the past!
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.

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.
Love your humor Prof! And thank you for all that you do for this community! I hope you're doing well 😊
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.
Dear Gonti, love Sophie.
Hey there prof! Just commenting to say, I love your channel and appreciate all you've done for the community. Since getting into MTG your videos have been an absolute asset!
Ever since I saw your outer sleeves video I triple sleeved a few of my decks that had some lower quality sleeves but with artwork I really love. This not only triple protected the cards but it also protected the artwork sleeves.
Reminds me of some of the first videos I watched from Prof😊
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 !

Most enthusiastic episode to date! Bravo!
Thank you Brian Kibler your videos are always the best.
Ive been thinking these accessory product review style videos all week! Thank you Prof!
Time to use Matte Clear & Matte Outers to get the Double Matte action
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!
Still can't believe that your double sleeving video is what originally got me into magic the gathering. Thank you prof.
This is such a funny video. I love it.
I honestly can't tell if he's recommending triple sleeving or making fun of it.
Prof, I gotta say that I still really, really like these community-college style stale infovids. They're what hooked me on your channel years ago and I love them whenever you do one. Don't lose these types of videos on your channel, they're still really useful and good.
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
Blink twice if you have been kidnapped
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!
This is fantastic! I have older dragon shield art gloss sleeves that slide everywhere and suck to try and keep together and shuffle. While I don’t use inners, I can use the outer clear mattes and make my deck nicer and easier to use!
Feel like the dragon shield inners with the wrap around tab is the same level of protection and doesn't cause your deck to be an unwieldy monster.
The dry humor in this video is so well received. Honestly the funniest I've seen yet. Bravo!
Awesome throw back feels. More uploads in this style!!
This video was incredibly helpful, in that I laughed for the whole runtime and it brightened my day
This video was PAUSE (Pause) very entertaining. The excitement was palpable. Thumbs upward Dr Professor!
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.
my friend, you are such a goof, thank you for being who you are; we love it. good video!
Loved everything about the acting and editing in this vid!
Much love and respect to you and your channel Professor.
2:27 dude this has got to be one of the funniest bits Prof's ever done. Dude says "hello" before he even picks up the phone 🤣🤣

I love so much how serious faced you are while very clearly being comedic Prof lmao!!! I hope that we get more bloopers of you breaking character because you couldn't hold back your laughter hahaha xD
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!
The dry approach was well thought out. Good stuff
For a while I've thought triple sleeving was a bit excessive, but the clear outer sleeves would probably be good for preserving some of my limited run art sleeves that I can't get replacements for anymore. Plus, seeing the Professor get so visibly excited about them in this video made me put in an order for 10,000 outer sleeves, thanks Professor!
Please do a "how to quad sleeve" next year, and then a quint sleeve, and so on every year.
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.
I have an Edgar Markov signed by the artist in 5 "sleeves". A perfect fit sleeve, a dragon shield side load sleeve, dragon shield matte, ultra pro top loader, and a top loader protector.
I got a laminator for Christmas last year and have been contemplating laminating my EDH decks. Ultimate protection.
Seen the title and was asking, "Why?" Glad I watched. Needed a pick me up this morning. Thanks Professor!
I am super excited for the academic coming to game stores next year. That is huge and exciting news!
This video was very funny, I love both your new and old style of videos
That phone bit got a good chuckle out of me. Thanks prof!

Lets goooo academic coming to LGS, I was a backer but was an idiot with keeping up with the shipping requirements and missed out on meeting the deadline. I will be able to still get my deck box!!! Not upset at the loss of money as I was glad to back such a great passion and much needed product for card game enthusiasts.
So glad to hear that your deck box will be coming to gameshops
Killing me with the dry humor in this one prof, the phone gag genuinely made me laugh out loud, and but just the exhale through my nose kind, but audible laughter
Those Pandragon sleeves are so freakin' adorable and I need more of them!

One click and this was exactly what I was looking for in a video about triple sleeves damn sir you done did it!
Love the satirical take on triple sleeves while slipping in the news that the Academic will be available through retail next year. Congratulations!
This was informative and the deadpan goofiness is right up my alley 😂 I don’t know how you keep a straight face 😂
Back to the roots content; I appreciate it.
Gonna need to pick up some of these clear outers for my recent crafted sleeves, but will probably just double sleeve without an inner.
Another great deck box is the Dex Protection Creation Line Medium size. I've had some for over 8 years and they are still in great working condition. Prof did a review on them forever ago, but I forget what raring he gave them
A brilliant return to form!
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).
Thank you for this video! It was very helpful!
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
This is the content I’ve subbed for
Thank you so much for adding the deck box that can hold it. I already have my two academics hard at work and I wanted to triple-sleeve my Jurassic Park deck. Now I just need to find the sidewinder somewhere.
Triple-sleeving a Nightmare? Pretty subtle, Prof.
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.
that dry humor stuff was great. well done. I was not expecting it
You have truly outdone yourself, professor
