Lorcana: standard sleeves, and the foil curl

Disney Lorcana does not need its own sleeve system. A card is 63×88 mm, the same family as Pokémon, One Piece and Magic. Standard matte outers, standard perfect fits, standard pennies. A Japanese-size sleeve, the kind you buy for Yu-Gi-Oh!, is too narrow.

Enchanted cards

Enchanted cards are the textured chases. Treat them like a textured holo from any other game. Edges only. Do not drag a finger or a cloth across the face. If a perfect fit will not take the card with light pressure, stop and use a penny sleeve as the inner. Forcing it is how texture scuffs.

The curl

Lorcana foils curl more readily than a typical Pokémon holo when the room swings from damp to dry. The paper and the foil layer disagree. Sleeve the card and leave it somewhere that holds it flat: a side-load binder pocket, or a deck box that is actually full enough that cards cannot bow. Do not bend a curl backwards to 'fix' it. That crease does not come out.

Play and the binder

• A Lorcana deck is 60 cards. The deck box you use for Pokémon is the right size. Double-sleeved, move up a size if the lid has to be forced.
• Shuffle the outer sleeve, not a penny. Pennies stick.
• Binder: one sleeved card per pocket. An Enchanted card does not share.
• A card you might grade: clear penny, then a semi-rigid if it is leaving the house. Do not wipe the foil first.
