Solemn Vanguard is it possible for you to do a video about decent-strong cheap deck builds?
>tfw you click this video to find a better shuffle method and find it's the same one you've already been doing for years intuitively
same
Same, I was expecting to discover something revolutionary
Wow I've been doing that shuffle method for this whole time and I didn't even know what was the name of that shuffle

Are you from Amino?
No this is called a mash shuffle. Just look up riffle shuffle on youtube to see an actual riffle shuffle.
It can be considered as stacking a deck though.
That’s mash shuffling. It’s not as random as rifle shuffling but it’s close enough. Mash shuffling gives an almost even distribution of cards every mash. Rifle shuffling sorts cards in groups of three, two and one if executed correctly. This gives more randomness. However, mash shuffling can ruin sleeves where rifle shuffling can crease cards. There is a method of rifle shuffling that doesn’t bend your cards. It involves applying pressure on the deck with your index finger and moving your thumbs along the sides of your cut in half deck. It is harder to do with double sleeves but double sleeves decrease the chance of cards getting bent and/or creased. Great video though! Mash and rifle shuffling are the best ways to randomize your deck! It should be done 7 times on a 50 card deck and 9 times on a 60 card deck. Good luck with your games! 😃
It's important to note that pile shuffling is not a shuffle, but is closer to sorting. MTG banned it as a shuffle, but you can use it to count the number of cards in your deck. This is b/c there's a ton of cheating methods that all use the pile shuffle to effectively stack your deck right in front of your opponent.
The thing about "pile shuffling" is that it's a misnomer. It's not that it isn't doing much, it does nothing and cannot be random unless the deck you're using was random when you started. With complete knowledge, it's stacking.
Glad to see this kind of video, though
oh my god... so I've been using the riffle shuffle for YEARS and I just discovered what it's called.
I only riffle shuffle because when I do the other types of shuffles cards always fly out.
This was such an informative and helpful video. What you say and how you say them makes me understand concepts better. Kudos.
First off I'd like to say that I've been watching your videos for some time now and this video has helped me quite a lot and I liked the idea of the note pad and the lucky and unlucky part hope to see more videos like this in the future :)
I've been using this riffle shuffle technique for so long, and just found out it's the best.
ive been using this shuffle the whole time and I didn't even know, and I get really good luck with it.
I've followed your tips of your acessories video and now i got Dragon Shield Standard for my main deck.
It really helps a lot to my shuffling now, i like it. Good bye G-Assist (?)
Thanks for the vids, sir! You're awesome.
Glad to see this higher upload rate!
Holy crap, this is actually how I shuffle! That's pretty neat to find out! Also, no wonder my sleeves have been breaking all the time. Thanks, Solemn Vanguard! :D
Great video man! When I learned about riffle shuffling a while back, I never went back XD
Thx solemn amazing videos as always finally understanf the science of rifle shuffling!
I double sleeve my cards and tend to shuffle like this naturally.
Nice to see that it has a name.
I like these types of helpful videos.
Keep these videos coming my guy.
That's actually NOT a riffle shuffle. That's what's called a mash shuffle, and as soon have already pointed out, that's not nearly as randomized or as good as a riffle shuffle. I know this video is already pretty old so idk if you'll even ever read this but hopefully future viewers do and learn the difference. A riffle shuffle is like what you see people do with a regular 52 card playing deck where they usually finish it with a "bridge." But that kind of shuffle is known to damage cards, so most people on TCGs would never shuffle like that, even if it truly is the best way to get "true" randomness.
Wow I actually have been riffle shuffling these past few years but never knew about the math behind it. I just did it because it felt nice.
Oh damn that’s why my decks been spitting out great stuff most of the time. I didn’t know that was the name of the shuffle I do
Honestly riffle shuffle is the only way I have been shuffling since i started a few days ago and i noticed the positive results!
I don't shuffle correctly. I shuffled like you demonstrated at first for both Vanguard and Yugioh.
FIX IT NAOW ;D
I will sir.
bought those dragon shields because of you! hopefully they will increase my trigger sacking haha
Good video! But I'm thinking of that as mash shuffling, and the one where you bend 2 piles of cards into each other (bad for the cards) is riffle shuffling.
This video was well needed
The best sleeves I've ever had for riffle shuffling were Ultimate Guard sleeves. 0% resistance on the actual shuffle.
You cured the cancer my gurguit deck was giving me and made me a shuffle master. I don't brink as often. Thank Solemn
Oh. So we just shuffle the deck. Exciting.
That shuffle solely, will keep the same few cards on the bottom of the deck, you should riffle and then do a variety of different shuffles.
ideally more than 1 type of shuffle in the same time. I riffle and then do the previous way then return to riffle and back and forth, guarantees that event the bottom cards are shuffled
I've been unconsciously riffle shuffling for as long as I can remember playing cardgames. It just came naturally to me.
I forgot to ask you what you thought about Eclipse sleeves? I enjoy riffle shuffling with Eclipse and DShields and they don't split too often plus the blackened inside is nice since the card won't bleed through the back of the sleeve
I don’t think I can send you a direct message, but what do you think about Dimensional robos? Do you think they could be competitive right now, or would they be more of a rogue pick to play? I haven’t done any research to see if they’re being seen in tournaments lately
Everyday I'm shufflin~~
But you've brought out some good points. For me, shuffling is kind of annoying depending on the sleeves because there's a chance I can rip the sleeves. Prob need to get better sleeves.
Edit: I assume you're talking about this video!
ua-cam.com/video/UQxnZlHEnNk/v-deo.html
Yeah, better sleeves could help
Nice video. Thank you.
Thanks this was very helpful
OMG i have been using riffle shuffle for a long time but i didn't knew its name
Gonna try this out next time.
Always done this and pile shuffle. Good on me i guess, good on the math behind this method.
I felt a major difference when I started this in magic.
How about a video about mulligan strats?
Also how do guys do that crazy quick cut shuffle I see?
Lol, might wanna check out cardistry :P
I've been doing this since before I started double sleeving, but I think I've been taking over half my deck more than once. More like 70/30 lol gotta work on that 50/50 and see what happens.
Gratz on 4k+ sub :D
Thank you!
My nerdy side just sighed in satisfaction with this video. It’s ASMR to my mind.
I visit that red sleeve green sleeve shuffle you talked about, then I got sidetracked into counting Blackjack.
I just noticed that this is the same method I used for the past 3 years I’ve played card games for shuffling (riffle) I didn’t know the name of it till now though
The language is so clean
Everyday I'm Shuffling!
Hey bro nice video. But the study is 7 riffle shuffles anything under just reverse the deck. 1992 Bayer and Diaconis
Do you have to double sleeve or can you use Dragonshield base with no cover?
Well max.
1st of all. That kind of shuffling is called shotgun shuffle at my locals. Rifle shuffling is like normal straight shuffle yugioh player do to their opponents deck while facing the other way (you know what i mean). But maybe it's just a misconception here.
2nd. That kind of shuffling (rifle according to you, shotgun for us) is actually banned here at my community. More precisely, you can't do that to your opponents deck. But you allowed to do it to yours. The main reason is that kind of shuffling really do damage the sleeve.
And 3rd. Yes. I always DO this shuffling to my own deck. And i agree with you, this method is in my opinion is the best way to really randomize your deck. Considering i mainly play some lucksacking weeb games called weiss schwarz, randomize your deck is very crucial in this game.
Finally. Keep up the good work. I love your content to the max (pun pretty much intended) and do less swearing pls^^.
Cheers.
Great vid
I shuffle my deck by using all of the afformentioned (excluding pile shuffleing) shuffleing techniques in between each game
And the way your showing people how to shuffle is the way I shuffle even before watching this video. I play magic and yugioh and im thinking about vanguard and from what I seen on your channel vanguard kinda fuses yugioh and magic but of course the three games have different mechanics and plays differently
This prob doesn’t work, but I always like shuffle 3 times, each with a different number of piles and a different pattern in which I place the cards
What is your set up for the shit you do?
Mic, editting programs, camera, etc.
man there's a guy in my play group that 80% of the time will crit in the first damage.
It sucks because it gives extra CB to his adversaries early
Then he should stop critting his opponents in the first damage
I believe the locals near my school sells Dragon Shield sleeves, but do I buy standard or yugioh sized sleeves?
I don't know if you've already made a video like this but can you make a tutorial video about how to play the game? I myself have been playing since bt01 but when i try to show people the game a lot of them ask to see a UA-cam video to reference from because they don't always have the time to sit down and play an actual game. ( and between you and me all of the tutorial videos on UA-cam are a little cringy or badly recorded) and also the anime fights are a little inconsistent to be used as an actual tutorial video. Sorry for the wall of text
Teaching vanguard
Is so
haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaard
I personnaly learned with a friend, he showed me the first fight of the anime and explained me the rules as i was watching. Maybe you could try this
Which deck do u use sir?
do a Q and A video! 😊
I thought this was called Mash Shuffling? And Riffle Shuffling is when you actually flip through the two halves, the way magicians do it before a bridge. Where's that vid on Mulligan strats at?
The regular ultra pro sleeves are kind of true bcoz my sleeves were just like 2 weeks old and now i did the riffle shuffle each game . I got small rips or holes in the bottom of my sleeves
I think I tracked down the video you mentioned about pile shuffling - ua-cam.com/video/UQxnZlHEnNk/v-deo.html
Also, a note for anyone reading the comments - pile shuffling is bad for randomizing your deck, but it is a good thing to do at high level competition to make sure you have the correct number of cards at the start of a round. No one likes getting in trouble because they lost a card or forgot to undo sideboarding between rounds for games that do that.
So pile shuffle is allowed only before the game, not after you mull?
Riffle shuffling: where you riffle two halves of the deck into each other.
Faro shuffling: where you push two halfves of the deck in such a way that they interweave into each other.
Wow, I didn't know about this shuffle method. I usually used the bridge shuffle method
Riffle > Everything ;D
Solemn Vanguard since I found out about the ruffle, I will use it all the time
OnePok3monMast3r 4gam3rs I've been using it with double sleeved/commander decks just because it's more comfortable to do than most other shuffles. Bridge is the standard shuffle I use for single sleeved decks though, if the cards aren't valuable.
Josh Groff I don't play commander magic, but the standard format. Right now though I am just trying to power my vanguard decks up
OnePok3monMast3r 4gam3rs bridge shuffling bends your cards
Make a video how to become better player and/or why we keep losing
Riffle shuffling is really important in Vanguard and I hope more GN players would learn to do it. Instead of crying to me that they had no luck playing GN as they keep milling/drawing into triggers instead. GN is a deck that's great at drawing and milling but we suck at filtering and riffle shuffle is the best way to randomized the deck so our probability of drawing/milling into triggers would be less. In some cases we will get into this continuous trigger mills/draws even with riffle shuffle. This occasionally happens when we have used mike & minibelly just to filter the deck. So GN players pls take into account how many triggers you have left in the deck and how many cards have you filtered out of the deck. Don't get too greedy trying to achieve every single ability in one turn. Be patient
Are standard sleeves good for riffle shuffle?
@@judewilsethsalinas7114 not sure I've been using bushiroad sleeves for ages and it works fine for me
@@I3ULL5HIT that means I can use small sleeves?
@@judewilsethsalinas7114 just don't go ham on it you should be fine
I've been using this method for a few years now... Didn't think that was an actual name for it
is it okay for buddyfight sleeves for over sleeve
Haha damn I triple sleeve kill me. It's good to know I shuffle correctly I only do it like 3-4 times, my friends make fun of me for shuffling that way. But even tho I shuffle like that most of the times I don't see triggers during trigger checks and not triggering kills me most games.
I don't triple sleeve though ;P 7 is the ideal number for riffles
Turns out I've already been doing this and just didnt know the name of it.
So i practiced this for 2 hours instead of studying and turns out this won me a couple games because its so randomised i usually get 3 triggers with brutal trooper stack and get good hand thanks. Also got new double sleeves lul
Hahahahahahahahahahah
I was atually reading a scientific periodic that said the very same thing. Our limbic system recognizes more bad moments than actually good ones. And this is because our instinctive behavior is bound to our experience with both "Work-reward" model in the Accumbens, and also mistakes.
Funny that when i 1st saw this video 2 months ago, i wouldn't even think it would pop up after i read something that could corroborate with it!
I did the first shuffle but like a riffle shuffle
Honestly this applies to all card games
Link to that experiment vid pls? I wanna do my physics experiment for the term on card games to prove to my class that card games aren’t gay
I know a guy who rifle shuffles his opponents deck so many times that it has the opposite effect where the deck is actually bullshitted already
Are royal paladins or gold paladins better
I usually combine riffle shuffle with a regular one.
Huh. I've been shuffling cards like that for years. I saw everyone else doing it differently and I thought I was the one doing it wrong.
Hey, I recently bought 2 nightrose trial deck with a couple of upgrades. Went 0-4 in my tournament and want to know any strats with my current deck nightrose and stuff I should upgrade with. Here’s the deck(NOTE: THIS DECK IS ONLY STUFF FROM THE TRIAL DECKS AND COMMONS AND STUFF IVE TRADED)

Solemn Vanguard yay ;D. Also any tips for me ruffle shuffling I tried with my deck but it seems hard and slow. Idk the name of the sleeves, but they’re some white sleeves with a bit of texture on the back with the front where the card goes black and see through. Also do you see any issues with my deck? Thanks ;D
Hear Is my solution pile shuffle at least once then cut deck in half the merge them 3 or 4 times stack shuffle
Riffle shuffle is same as merge
I do have a morikawa lol, my omega glendios deck
Wait, riffle shuffling? Everyone around me calls it mash shuffling.
People around me call it Shotgun Shuffling
Another great video make me smarter!! (How to shuffle and drive heal cri heal stand ~T_T~)
When I play vanguard with my friends I shuffle their decks and I accidentally dropped their cards😂😂pls make a video on all the shuffle techniques
What is you cant double double sleeve?
After i shuffle it And when i looked at my deck 6 trigger stacking
90% of my first drive checks will be crits when I'm playing against my brother. (That's a rough estimate, but it's definitely not far off).
wat about a regular, interconnected, shuffle?
I do that!!
Hey dude just saying. Do you have a facebook page or something that i can follow too? Because i have become a fan of your work. Keep it up bro!!
I don't have a Vanguard page no D:
Too bad though haha.
talk about the deck profiles of the bwc finalists ahahahha pls
After I build a deck for any card game I sit there and I shuffle the deck for about 30 minutes
Honestly i prefer pre-stacking my cards a certain way and then do the stack shuffle a couple of times. Probably not maths proven but it works allows me to stack triggers and hit my grades
Clement Goh i do this everytime after I’ve profiled my deck. It’s pretty nice
Sounds hella illegal ;)
Solemn Vanguard Pardon me i think you may hav misunderstood what i mean by "stacking" its not illegal since u are just "keeping your cards" in that specific way that "prevents" stacks of grades which at the same time increase stack of trigs and it isnt against the rules since those who do the "stack" ultimately stack shuffle which is the legitimate way to play the game.
For me with the 50 card and 16 trigs, by placing 2 triggers followed by a grade 1,2,3 risin and repeat you get a very even out deck plus u get to "stacked" triggers "more often" plus you can get yr grades easily cos of the "stack"
I do understand that im technically stackin cards on purpose and not really randomising my deck like shuffling should do. (Which i can see as cheating to a certain degree)
But its ultimately isnt an illegal move and its more of a preparation (to "balance" out the deck than just collecting all yr cards to 1 pile after a game which can often lead to stacks of gX or X trigs leading to misgrade) and at the same time stack triggers.
Its similar to that of MTG where ppl put 2 lands followed by 1 creature in order to tip the odds into their favour of getting the needed type of cards and thats not illegal.
Besides as mentioned ppl do the stack shuffling as a common practice and wouldn suspect you of "stacking" that way since eitherway the deck is being shuffled and of cos im not sayin shufle like 2 or 3 times likr mayb a couple cos u know cardgamers love to shuffle their cards.
I hope that with this explanation u could understand this way of "deck preparation" better and it could be a way to solve triging and grade stuck issues :) mayb u can do a vid and cover this after tryin or asking ard if u or yr buds feel if it does anything
As always great content you're by far the most consistent VG YT producer out there and i love the content u cover thumbs up.
Ps for the long reply
That's still stacking. A deck has to be properly randomized. If you have shuffled or arranged your deck in any way as to prevent bad outcomes, that is cheating
mrgn0me
The term Properly Randomize as you mentioned. Explain to me how are you going to determine after i have done a proper* "stack shuffle"(as solomn describes it) or in bushiroad terms "Hindu shuffle" that my deck is properly randomize.
Proper* (meaning I've legitimately hindu shuffled my deck a couple or multiple of times)
Sure you can ask the judge and say that i dont think the my opp deck is shuffled properly but that begs the qns are u going to do that for every match?
And of course you as the opp is allowed to shuffle my deck. And depending on how you shuffle,
Hindu: I still benefit cos its the same shuffle technique
Riffle(Faro): then thanks you've oso help randomise my deck that would still benefit me as what solomn mention in his vid.
At the end of the day you've got no way of proving I "Pre-stacked" and even if you did prove it, i would normally shuffle my deck besides its not just me would might be doing this which then you would nvr be able to tell and im sure not everyone is going to be picky to like oh ima wanna shuffle yr deck cos i know of this "stacking method" that i feel my opp doesn hav a properly randomised deck
Hi Maxime!
Actually you should do bridge and riffle shuffle, one of each in odd numbers. For example, I always do 1 bridge and 1 riffle shuffle 5 or 7 times before a game, and then when I need to shuffle my deck during a match I do the same but 3 times. There is math on this, explained by Vmundi on her blog. You should check it out :D
Ciao!
