Until then; I've ordered a few hundred sleeves in order to try out the idea of playing with sleeves without committing to 2800 sleeves and a new mass storage solution. You only need ~300 to sleeve all of your Base Cards plus the 10 Kingdom cards you're playing with at that particular time, which can be as low as $8 shipped.

Resleeving 100 cards between games seems like a HUGE pain in the ass.
OTOH, 8$ for 300 opaque sleeves? Seems quite low. What brand are they?

Has anyone ever tried sleeving cards only when adding them to their deck?

The game already takes a long time to set up... no way I'd do this.

I did this a week and a half ago when I played with my new Adventures cards on Skype with Wero.  It was far from ideal.  I really couldn't pay attention to what was going on because I was always putting sleeves on my cards when he was playing.

I ended up deciding to buy 500 sleeves from here: http://www.miniaturemarket.com/mdg7042.html?___store=mmonline&___store=mmonline&utm_source=GoogleShopping&gclid=CKiM4-27hcUCFc3m7Aod9CIA1A Total order was like $9.40 + $6 shipping. If these work well, and I find a storage solution as convenient and fast as my binders, I'll probably buy the other 2000 or so I need once I start my job.

I'd only do this if we wanted to start playing sooner.

Am I the only one who finds sitting down and sleeving a bunch of cards to be therapeutic?

I love it, too. Now that I have all the expansions I'm kinda bummed I won't be sleeving anything anytime soon.

You can unsleeve them and start again.

The first session was free. From now on, I will charge 120$ per hour.

Start playing a CCG and you can sleeve cards forever.

Which sleeves are best for Hearthstone?  I'm fed up of my opponent "accidentally" spilling their drink on Dr Boom.
