Don't be fooled into thinking that will work better with 8's due to symmetry—there's a nasty singularity that's very difficult to remove.

I thought they were sorted by increasing number of lines of text.

No, they are sorted by the first name of the illustraters (from A to Z)
and
by first word on the card text (from Z to A)
and
by numbers of the faces you see on the card (from many to less).

They are also sorted by magnification (small to big) and contrast (low to high).

[Witherweaver]

They're also sorted by text length (low to high), and alphabetically by card type, with card name as the secondary key (Action K, Action M, Action-Attack)

They're also in order my how close they are to the left side of that image.

Funny, every time I've opened this thread on this page, I've thought that it's the Random Stuff II thread until now.

Reveal your hand.  Reveal cards from the top of your deck until these revealed cards contain your hand as a subcollection (that is, including repetitions as needed).  If you did, then discard your hand and draw the revealed cards.
