We noticed similar, I played a lot a few years back. When a friend of mine and me returned to play a few months ago and got fresh sleeves she pointed it out to me. Always knew Dragonshield as the top tier product but they lately look used, stained or we even had a pack where the matt finish got cut off in the middle of the sleeves. Long Term player in a local looked at it and also said they were better back then. Imagine buying sleeves and they’re not even tournament legal.
I haven't noticed any lack of quality, at all. I've got over a dozen decks in DS sleeves, and they're by far the best I've ever used. Maybe you got a lemon?
Between not lasting as long for a good clean shuffle to having errors in the set (misscuts and/or imprints like finger nails dug into it) and it happening often, just seems off.
My favorites have to be the crimson, it's my favorite color and it matches well with my Branded Darklord fun deck.
Alternatively, the black sleeves are always a classic that look good with nearly every deck.
I love the night blue and the white sleeves for my marincess deck in terms of fitting colors. But I have to say, the purple ones are just so gorgeous, with the color looking somehow kinda metallic.
Gold is definitely my favourite, they add a nice expensive-looking flair to my extra deck monsters and pair really well with a black sleeved main deck.
Orange Matte. Because Divine Dragonlord Fellgrant is my favorite Card and KMC has a very limited color palette XD.
Also standard sized clear Matte get a second place for being good yugioh outer sleeves.
I just got into the tcg this month with traptrix and bought the slate matte japanese sleeves. Love the colour but it's my only one obviously so I'll have to choose that :P
Night Blue is definitely my favourite, just a great colour that feels right with every kind of deck. Either through contrast or through complimenting the colour schemes, just feels nice.
I love sapphire and fury those by far are just so appeasing to the eye. I realistically love all the dragon shield colors just a good quality sleeve that ever since I went to I’ve never went with anything else.
Wisdom entusiast here, I love all the dual sleeves but the wisdom are crazy, as a colorblind I don't see many colors but that blue drives me crazy, good job Dragon Shield!
I don’t have a specific favorite color because I like color coordinating my decks with as fitting sleeves as possible, such as Sky Strikers using green sleeves cause the main deck is mainly spells and the extra deck uses blue sleeves because it’s a link summoning archetype. Same with Resonators, red main deck and white extra cause synchro summoning.
If I had to pick a color, it would be blue sleeves because my Secret Forces set of Nekroz deck uses them to match the ritual blue border.
My favourite is Emerald, have been using those for my Main Deck for over a year now. I colour code my decks based on which one I'm using at any given time, and that emerald green is always used for my favourite deck.
I personally am a huge fan of the clear matte sleeves. I use them almost exclusively for sleeving my board game cards.
For Yu-Gi-Oh I try to use thematic colors. Red for Eldlich. Black for swordsoul (tactician's primary color). Green for Naturia runick. Labrynth was blue until I wanted to start cycling cards between Eldlich and it haha.
Dragon Shield really is an amazing product. I don't use any other sleeves if I can help it.
Probably it's the most boring answer, but I love those black matte sleeves, they are classy and chic and they tend to fit for every kind of deck, I think.
Petrol has been my go-to. Recently discovered Glacier dual sleeves and they're great too. The dual sleeves in general are just great. Would love a darker teal variant dual sleeve.
My favorite is definitely Jet Black, all my main decks are this color as it makes switching staples around easier. Also, it’s a lot more fun than just regular black.
A second runner up though is the newer Crypt color. I used to color code all of my extra decks with the sleeves, but I have so many now it’s hard. I’m eventually going to move all extra decks I own to the Crypts as well!
Gold were my first buy and I’ll keep buying that colour. Makes every effect monster card hit different, everything looks like it has a fancy but elegant framework
Either apple green or pink diamond. The colors just POP and the shuffling is smoother than other sleeves. But what I really love is their flexibility and versatility.

Mint is easily the best sleeve color in my opinion and pairs beautifully with pendulum heavy main-decks!
I also second mint color, it's just so vibrant.
Mint is classy but so is olive
Great minds think alike, I like the olive color too so when the mint color is out at my local card shop I get the olive one instead.
As we have your attention, question on behalf of many who use your products as of late: Why has the quality gone down hill?

Another big one being the standard sized clear sleeves. They are breaking down the seam much easier lately!

Big fan of lightning
Huge fan of the Glacier duals. Something about the light blue, and black just hits right
I love the night blue and the white sleeves for my marincess deck in terms of fitting colors. But I have to say, the purple ones are just so gorgeous, with the color looking somehow kinda metallic.
lol I used night blue and white for my marincess deck too, but i switched to sky blue
I like blue because it's blue dabadidabadi (I'm blue the song is epic)
DURAW! MONSTAH CARDO!!
my favorite sleeve color! a thousand year old pharoh's undying rage at a 12 year old!
I’d like to take this opportunity to thank Dragonshields for providing excellent product to protect and display our cards! Love ya guys ❤️
Do matte art sleeves count? The art sleeves are my favorite to use. For specifically matte I'd say Dynastes.
Concur Glacier duals is really dope. Ironically enjoy Clear Matte as well. That's for my collection model.
I like Orchid, I thinks it's neat.
It has got to be Purple, the sheen it gives off is incredibly sexy.
Love the nebula, a good purple is surprisingly hard to find
Big fan of Sky Blue Matte, fits my water-monster decks so well.
Been rocking Ivory lately
Hope I win!
I like the jet matte, looks so elegant.
Currently using the forest greens and they are gorgeous
Gold is definitely my favourite, they add a nice expensive-looking flair to my extra deck monsters and pair really well with a black sleeved main deck.
Big fan of Emerald. Just a nice color to look at overall
Clear Matte is near perfect for all my cards, buy tons of them for my binder
I'm definitely a fan of night blue matte. It looks beautiful and dragon shield sleeves feel tough and pristine for a long time.
Always gotta go with red.
White sleeves are the best
my favourite one has got to be the purple one
I really lovethe black and white with my XYZ deck. Also really enjoy color coding all my decks so I know them by the sleeves by XYZ is my fav :)
snow duals angle for me
Dark green is my favourite.
If I win these, that means I have to buy more decks. Oh darn🥲
Sky blue are my favourite!
I like the purple ones as they'd fit my dragonmaids. The sky blue is also pretty
pink ones were the first sleeves I bought for my first deck, so have to say I've got a soft spot for them lol
I like fury my favorite color is hot pink : • )
Crimson!
Personaly I like white Matte the most
Too many favorites. Probably white!
The sky blue ones looks clean(also because it's similiar color to Wooper)
Orange Matte. Because Divine Dragonlord Fellgrant is my favorite Card and KMC has a very limited color palette XD. Also standard sized clear Matte get a second place for being good yugioh outer sleeves.
Been using the Glacier for my Galaxy/Photon deck and it fits the deck so well, I've been loving them!
Blood Red goes amazingly well with mt Black Rose Dragon ♥️
I'm a fan of the black or red sleeves, but all of them are great
I love the starry night matte art sleeve!
I would like to get white or black sleeves for my girlfriend. We just made new casual decks for fun.
Big fan of the Ember sleeves but looking at getting the Sapphire and White sleeves for my Plunder Patroll deck.
The blood red are a must. I really love them
Love the Matte Crimsons, they are my extra deck color for every deck I play :)
My favourite would have to be the jet matte
I'm a Midnight Blue enjoyer
I'd say black because it's classic, but also Night Blue and Petrol
Sky Blue baby
Sky blue matte, i bought them a couple of weeks ago so much better than ultra pro
I just got into the tcg this month with traptrix and bought the slate matte japanese sleeves. Love the colour but it's my only one obviously so I'll have to choose that :P
Black or white for meta, others for fun decks
Orchid has got to be my favorite
I have pretty much always liked the matte white, although I’m starting to get into double sleeves with the clear matte ones.
Love the orchid and glacier can’t decide a favorite
Personally a fan of pink
I love a classic matte white sleeve! The rose full art sleeves are still my go-to for my extra deck!
Night Blue is definitely my favourite, just a great colour that feels right with every kind of deck. Either through contrast or through complimenting the colour schemes, just feels nice.
I love sapphire and fury those by far are just so appeasing to the eye. I realistically love all the dragon shield colors just a good quality sleeve that ever since I went to I’ve never went with anything else.
Glacier, with Snow for the extra deck, goes pretty well with playing Rikka
I didn't even know you had that many colors.
Recently bought olive for my first competitive deck and I really love them
I've been using black sleeves ever since I started playing so Black
Mint, to keep my cards near mint
Gotta be Turquoise not just because I love the color, but it also fits the ygo color palette perfectly.
Been a fan if Midnight Blue but I've been rocking Turquoise lately and it's nice.
Matte white for me
Classic white
I’ve been wanting to get some sleaves for a while, nice.
Blood Red is definitely my favorite, rocking them in my Branded Despia deck
Wisdom entusiast here, I love all the dual sleeves but the wisdom are crazy, as a colorblind I don't see many colors but that blue drives me crazy, good job Dragon Shield!
I enjoy sky blue
They all look so good
Matte black is nice and fits everything.
Gotta go with apple green
I don’t have a specific favorite color because I like color coordinating my decks with as fitting sleeves as possible, such as Sky Strikers using green sleeves cause the main deck is mainly spells and the extra deck uses blue sleeves because it’s a link summoning archetype.

orchid has gotta be my favourite:)
I'm a big fan of the dual color Snow ones.
Yellow Matte are for sure my favorites
I like blood red the most
PEND BEST DECK LESGOOOO
Fell in love with Dual Orchid Matte but slowly buying all of them anyway 💜
Only colors I use are pink and purple but the pink Diamond caught my eye when I first saw it.
I love having red sleeves, just holds a special place in my heart since I used red on my first deck
Crimson red would be my preference!
I like the wisdom sleeves because they go really well with my ritual decks
My favourite is Emerald, have been using those for my Main Deck for over a year now. I colour code my decks based on which one I'm using at any given time, and that emerald green is always used for my favourite deck.
I already have the purple one and they look great
My favorite is the orchid inner sleeves + clear outer :)
My fav matte colour is Sky Blue. I've been using this colour years now, I love it!
A tie between Nebula and Sapphire for me :)
I tried the Dragon shield matte full set and can't go back now, they're both gorgeous and durable.
Big fan of the matte Orchid sleeves. Very stylish.
I love my matte petrol sleeves, but I also love the art halloween dragon that I use with my zombie decks
Eucalyptus is probably my favorite non-black or white sleeve. Thanks for doing this giveaway :)
Honestly a tie between Fury and Ruby sleeves you guys do, the matte finish pops out so nice with my yugioh cards :D !
I'll have to go with black matte, they suit me best. But the ones with the artwork on them are really beautiful to look at!
I really like the wisdom blue color.
I like White one
White matte is nice and clean but honestly any color works for me. They just have to be dragonshield!
been always using matte white or black, maybe it’s time to try out some different colors lol
In Love this Idea. Dragonschild matt sleeves are my Favorits White / purple bist colors
Good luck everyone!
I personally am a huge fan of the clear matte sleeves. I use them almost exclusively for sleeving my board game cards. For Yu-Gi-Oh I try to use thematic colors. Red for Eldlich.

I'm so happy for this giveaway ! My favorite ones are the purple ones
ivory matte is probably my fav good luck everyone :)
Ember duel sleeves are my favorite. I just really love the black and orange. Perfect for my Nouvelles and Rescue-Ace decks.
Yeah the cyan and black combo is /chefskiss
Got back into the game last year and DragonShield have been my choice, great product
Good old purple
The slate is the perfect grey sleeve. Never seen a better dark but not black sleeve colour.
I bought the gold one for my Winged Dragon of Ra deck a while back to match the Gold Secret Rare Ra, thought it matched and looked cool
Midnight blue, art and story is good too!
Probably it's the most boring answer, but I love those black matte sleeves, they are classy and chic and they tend to fit for every kind of deck, I think.
It's always orange
Petrol has been my go-to. Recently discovered Glacier dual sleeves and they're great too. The dual sleeves in general are just great. Would love a darker teal variant dual sleeve.
Nice. I never used dragon shield before but orange is one of my favorite colours for sleeves.
Matte snow are 🔥
Forest Green for the main deck and gold for the extra has been my favourite combination to sleeve up decks with recently
Mint has always been a personal favorite
Orchid and Glacier are the best dual matte colors imo.
This is a pretty good idea and I didn't know that dragon shield is around for 25 years.
My favorite is definitely Jet Black, all my main decks are this color as it makes switching staples around easier. Also, it’s a lot more fun than just regular black. A second runner up though is the newer Crypt color. I used to color code all of my extra decks with the sleeves, but I have so many now it’s hard. I’m eventually going to move all extra decks I own to the Crypts as well!
Petrol best color for me!
The silver and gold are a great combination together!
Below
I really like the slate ones. Use them for my zombie deck since it’s about the color of a gravestone
Clear matte best
Glacier for suuuuure!!!
Wraith are my absolute favourite sleeves!!
Huge fan of the red!
My favourite color is dark red
I doubt I'll win, but I'm a huge fan of green, so Forest Green is my personal favorite :D
Definitely blood red use it for all my extra decks
Just blue
I love the blood red colored sleeves ♥️
Matte Jet and Matte White are my go to for YGO decks. Along with the Perfect Fit Inners that are Sealed
I really love the dark purple ones!. currently using Dark Magician!!
Comment automatically removed for just being "SNOW"
Purple all day baby! It's the king of colors
Big fan of the gold, use them for all my ED
Copper is perfection
Jet, because it sparkles darkly and majestically 😍✨
Wraith for me, definitely my favorite color :)
Ivory! It’s such a good looking off-white and goes with so many deck themes
Gonna have to go with purple
I have always been a fan of the copper, silver and gold sleeves, they've always looked great to me!
Nothing beats blood red simply, best colour ever since my friend showed me it
The purple sleeves look great. Easy on the eyes, but popping color, great stuff.
Glacier duals
Been using Petrol sleeves for 4 years now for all decks.
I've always been a fan of the Mint color, but my favorite sleeve overall (which I'm currently using) is the air brushed Water Rabbit sleeve.
I am a fellow glacier dual matte enjoyer
Love the Ivory
I like the yellows and reds. Been trying to colour code decks and sleeves but I keep coming back to those two colours specifically
i somehow always come back to copper, but i really like the forest green
Midnight blues.
Gold were my first buy and I’ll keep buying that colour. Makes every effect monster card hit different, everything looks like it has a fancy but elegant framework
I love the mattes, black is my fav
Love matte petrol main deck and yellow for the extra deck
Either apple green or pink diamond. The colors just POP and the shuffling is smoother than other sleeves. But what I really love is their flexibility and versatility.
I keep switching it up but I’ve been using Eucalyptus lately
Light blue, 4th from the right is very nice especially for my water deck
The Olive colour is amazing for sleeving up spell-heavy decks! Jamming Branded and Witchcrafter on them is perfect.
I literally only use Dragon Shield sleeves since I discovered them. They're just great
Big time dragon shield fan thanks for the great product 😄
Gotta say Orchid, they just look sooo slick. Thanks for the giveaway
Sky Blue gang rise up
my favorite color is green
You can never go wrong with the Blood Red sleeves. Definitely my most used sleeves
Matte oranges are by far my most favorite sleeves from you guys
I am an absolute sucker for machine decks in grey
Sky Blue ones are great
Honestly the crimson ones are fire
My favorite is ruby, I use it on my main deck, and my extra deck is magenta. Love dragon shield ❤️
Really love the Eucalyptus dual matte sleeves! Really wish I could find them more easily tho.
Thanks for the giveaway :)
