Sleeves

[Aew]

Hi.

Am playing with thin sleeves inside my regular once. For now, both sleeves are facing up. My question is: Would it damage the card, if I turn the thin sleeve face down. My concern is if the card don`t get enough air and so on.

thanks in advance.

playing with "perfect sleeves" and regular sleeves sleeved in the opposite directions is commonplace.

Cards don't need air to breath, but a newly sleeved double sleeved deck can have a curious "squeeze" effect initially.

I also have a question as I use KMC perfect fits with regular sleeves- when I am putting the cards into the outer sleeve(or after some use), the outline of the card becomes a slight crease on the back.  Even putting the cards into KMC sleeves can cause a crease
on the top.  Is this marking a card?

Side question-  I am thinking of switching sleeves if this becomes an issue.  Which sleeves have the highest chance of becoming and staying tournament legal?  I don't get to play events often and don't want to get stung for this silly reason.  I have used dragon shield, but something seemed to change between 2002 and 2008 in their product and I found myself replacing many new sleeves.  I haven't felt like things were adequately protected in ultra pro at times (but I may be wrong).

Thanks in advance.  Sry for necro.

As long as there is no pattern on the wear, you are fine. The only problem I could see potentially running into would be if you had excessive wear on one particular card more so then others, such as tinker,blightsteel, time vault, whatever since you tutor often for them, since they are being manipulated and worn more then say ponder.

Discussion of sleeves damaging cards or what sleeves are good to use does not belong in the rules forum.  The question concerning marked cards has been answered already.
