People seriously need to chill out. A lot of people shuffle their cards compulsively; it's a habit that some of us develop naturally. Kibler is just really, really good at it. He's not trying to slowroll or annoy his opponents. He just does that because it keeps him in the zone.
No. He has problems concentrating. This keeps him focused, and gives him a better overview of his hand. The distraction factor does not really play much of a role.
BMKs Shufflin is just a way he deals with nervousness or how he stimulates his brain to think through the problems. Perhaps when he does it and looks at all his cards he is considering his options. Kibler's choice to do it quickly is simply an addendum to how much he plays the game. Theres no reason to hate someone for it. If you dislike it so much, skip his match. I'd rather have my opponent do that so they can play to the best of their ability than be forced to stop and feel uncomfortable.
Match 1 - Brian Kibler vs Willy Edel Game 1 0:53 Game 2 12:30 Match 2 - Stanislav Cifka vs Eric Froehlich Game 2 21:18 Match 3 - Lee Shi Tian vs Yuuya Watanabe Game 33:31
The way Brian does it, it looks like a nervous tick. You see how he'll set his hand down then immediately pick it up and start shuffling again? Almost as if he can't not shuffle his hand.
I like to watch Kibler's shuffling, but where did you guys put the mic? Taped to the back of his hand? It really takes away from the commentators with the shuffling noise being that loud.
Damn, I wish I could shuffle as fast as him xD I'm the same way, I am constantly shuffling around my cards, but I feel like a filthy casual of a shuffler when I watch him xDxDxD
You know all of you guys getting frustrated and put off by his shuffling.....proves he's doing it right....its supposed to distract his opponent....and if it distracts people just watching coverage....think how Willy Edel must feel
not that i would ever play at this level - but would it be polite to ask him to stop flip flapping his cards around like a damn idiot? Its distracting and really annoying. I'd ask him politely to please stop.
Turning the token wouldn't have killed it, it still would have been a 3/4 with 1 damage marked on it. It's a layers thing. The P/T setting of Turn applies in the 2nd P/T layer, while the 3 +1/+1 counters apply in the 4th P/T layer.
I read somewhere that Brian Kibler has ADHD? If it's true, it explains why he shuffles incessantly. Personally, I don't find anything annoying about it, I'd be too focused on each turn and my plays.
Kibler's shuffling has two purposes, to hopefully annoy/rush their opponent's to make decisions and to keep his hand constantly changing order... A person who holds their hand with their left will typically put the useless cards on the far-left and their better on the far right. So with him constantly shuffling, that subconscious action will never take place where as novice players will just sit there and let everyone else know how crappy their hands are. ^_^ Or perhaps... He's just nervous. LOL Source: I am a competitive Magic Player and have analyzed a lot of Kimble's tendencies.

I came here to watch Brian shuffle.
That damn shuffling! Drives me mad! Can't freaking watch this....
Kibler's shuffling is mesmerizing.....
I'd happily take a soundtrack of Kibler's shuffling over listening to Zak and Rashad stumble through their commentary.
Watching this in 2018 cause this Standard was so good and its just so awful these days.
I don't have a problem with BK's shuffling, I'm a shuffler too, but the speed is unbelievable. I swear he's gotten faster.
Guys, his shuffling isn't that annoying, I didn't even notice it at all
Kibler has ADD and shuffling frenetically helps him concentrate.
No. He has problems concentrating. This keeps him focused, and gives him a better overview of his hand. The distraction factor does not really play much of a role.
Please update the life counter faster.. would be awesome :)
Lol all these comments about Kiblers shuffling. It looks cool, and I personally like the sound that the card sleeves make :)
i heard that theyr are making this so the opponent cant concentrade proper

Or you could not worry about it. Even the best players have bad habits and nervous ticks, and I'm sure he means no harm.
PLS stop that insane shuffling. omfg
I love Kibler. Such a great player.
THAT SHUFFLING IS MAGIC!!!!!

What are Eric Froelich's hands doing at 28:28?
Whenever Zack Hill laughs on air, an innocent child dies somewhere on the earth
why? hes just shuffling cards.... ur alowed 2 shufle cards.....
Brian must have had three lines of coke before this game, his shuffling is insane.
Kibler's constant shuffling is driving me crazy.
Why did Willy Edel keep blocking in Game 2?
G1 why didnt kibler just drop the second hellrider and swing win with triggers alone.?
Love Thundermaw hellkite.
kessig wolf run gives +1/+0 and trample and he tapped 4,
why does the guy that does the decktechs always have his hands in his pockets?
Willy pumped one of the VoRs with kessig wolf run.
Still want to play Stop That! against him, though.
But he shuffles the whole time. He even starts playing around with his graveyard when his hand gets below 2 cards.
I hate it when people shuffle their hands like its going to produce a different result.
Jund has Curse of Death's Hold and Slaughter Games for Assemble the Legion
It's pretty annoying when Kibler just sits there and shuffles his hand instead of making a decision
*flick flick flick* *flick flick flick* *flick flick flick* *flick flick flick* *flick flick flick*
*takes a moment to think*
*flick flick flick* *flick flick flick* *flick flick flick* *flick flick flick* *flick flick flick*
'...Your turn.'
*flick flick flick* *flick flick flick*
i hate when they dont up date the score.
19:13 can someone explain how those 2 x VoR's did 8 dmg pls. Yes I am a noob so w/e :P
Ya. I get annoyed by the constant shuffling they do with their hands. At least its not just me
I came to the conclusion that Brian Kibler's Brain is in his hands...
stanaslov cifka is the second best magic player, his vast intelagence will eventually over come finkle's and put him on top
Enchantments, the reason I have Golgari Charm sideboarded in my jund deck
not that i would ever play at this level - but would it be polite to ask him to stop flip flapping his cards around like a damn idiot? Its distracting and really annoying. I'd ask him politely to please stop.
The ironic thing is that if he had chumped with a voice, he would have had a 3 Power voice token, allowing him to outrace Kibler. :-P
I hate how Kibler does it. It's so sporadic that it makes me think his hands are having a seizure.
i think its cool and i would like to shuffle that fast
Can't Kibler's opponents ask a judge to request the incessant and unnecessary shuffling to stop due to distraction? It's rude and inconsiderate.
i feel sorry for the guy that has to update Kibler's hand
that is a tactic ..... the point is to drive the enemy crazy
Brian Kibler shuffle many time, it's very hard to look and hear that!! Poor cards!
Why jund don't play Golgari Charm ???
it's good vs supreme verdict and assemble the legion and the token from assemble.
Kibler's nervous tick hand shuffling is utterly unbearable. Such huge respect for Willy just sitting there cool as a cucumber.
Can't you ask a judge to make him stop shuffling like that,couldn't make it past the 4 minute mark.
Mass removal.
ALWAYS better to keep one back just in case something like Mizzium Mortars Overload happened.
I mean I hand shuffle to but his is ridiculous
actually Jund can deal with enchantments.. Just use some Golgari Charms...
OMG Kibler...STAHP!!! Just put the cards down!
Can't stand Kibler's nervous shuffling. If I ever played him, I'd bring drumsticks and drum on the table the whole time.
at 43:00 yuya should have turned that beast into a 0/1 and burned the garruk instead of wasting a detention sphere :/

SkepticalAaron it doesn't have any +1/+1 counters, it's a 3/3 beast
@ 42:37 he plays a Putrefy and puts 3 +1/+1 counters on the beast from his Primeval Bounty trigger.
SkepticalAaron ahh, must have looked away
assemble the legion is the funniest shit in the world lol
someone get kibler some damn ridelin...
everyday i'm shuff-e-ling, everyday i'm shuff-e-ling !
people get annoyed real quick nowadays. please let peace inside your life and relax.
CIFKA HAS A POKEMON DECK BOX!!!!!
How is muting gonna help? You can't hear it, you just see it. *Insert unnecessary insult*
google is your friend
I cant stand playing someone with the nervous shuffle
Respect to Kibler but that shuffling is annoying as hell
W.T.F Kibler's shuffling is freaking annoying.
kibler seems to be nervous..
Willy's play seems super loose
Brian needs to slow down with flicking his hand around
Please get rid of Zac Hill as a commentator.
The hand shuffling is a distraction. He keeps their mind on his shuffling and not the game. It's not a nervous tick.
I read somewhere that Brian Kibler has ADHD? If it's true, it explains why he shuffles incessantly. Personally, I don't find anything annoying about it, I'd be too focused on each turn and my plays.
Thats not an ADHD tic. That just him being "cool". I have ADHD.
Kibler's shuffling is freaking annoying.
yes

Why does Kibler play with his cards in his hands non stop? That sound is rather annoying... is that the point?
