Trying to put together a new combo. Is it going well? It's just going 😅.

This one also got me to 69% on skilladdicts. Nice.

Starting the week off right by landing my first whip! Enjoy the sounds of kids in the pool 😅

It's a refreshing trick for the weekend!

Probably should have learned how to do this before other hop tricks, but here we are!

Shout out as always to my patient wife for filming me.

Probably the scariest place I've ever been!

The wind made it tough to return!

I want to open by saying that I purchased the void monster devoid deck box previously, and it was a perfect 10/10. That experience gave me the confidence to try these sleeves out. Unfortunately, these sleeves are bad.

When the red collection was revealed, I knew I had to have these red sleeves for my Kratos, God of War deck. I placed my pre-order on 2-21-26, and the waiting process began!

There was a product update from support stating that the original run of sleeves failed to meet expectations and that they'd be changing materials to a non textured back. Being a long time dragon shield user, this did make me consider their refund offer, but the previous quality of their deck box and commitment to creating a new run made me decide to follow through with the order.

The sleeves arrived today. They were packaged in a bubble mailer and housed in a thin plastic bag that had burst open during transit. Most of the sleeves were loose in the bubble mailer.

After pulling the sleeves out, it was immediately apparent that they were very thin. Half or more of the sleeves had some strange puckering on one side or the other. Durability and presentation aside, I decided to sleeve up a card and compare against a dragon shield sleeve.

I believe the pictures speak for themselves. The sleeves are smaller in length and total volume. Double sleeving would be out of the question if that's your preferred method. These sleeves feel quite fragile in hand and have a strange distortion effect due to the lower interior volume. If you've ever sleeved up one of the cardboard etched foils that used to come with commander decks, that's how a normal card fits into these sleeves.

The art on the sleeves, while beautiful, is entirely muted by the sleeve material. The front has a strong matte finish that renders cards illegible under overhead lighting, which is the primary condition you'll be viewing your cards in most of the time.

One positive I will note is that 105 sleeves were included. This is great for tokens or spares.

Overall, I'd recommend people stay away from them. I'll be skipping a full sleeve and shuffle feel based on the initial impressions. I would expect shuffle feel and durability to be poor based on the obvious qualities of these sleeves.

My intention here isn't to dog on void monster since I'm in love with the deck box I've received. I simply want to give people an unbiased opinion since they have regularly popped up as sponsors for popular YouTube mtg channels.

Thanks for reading! Please let me know if you have any questions!

Edit: price was 14.99 plus shipping.

All I can say is, wow! I don't know if price is always an indicator of quality, but this thing feels 100x better than my starter monometal!

This trick was tough to get through! The turning point came by adding an extra inch or so to my string. That little bit of extra length made landing the wrist mount so much easier.

To all my new throwers out there: don't be afraid to swap those strings out, make those strings longer, and put on some new response pads!
