My local kitchen table play group has recently started playing EDH. Kind of a dumb question, but what do people typically use for sleeving up their EDH decks? I've seen the other sleeve posts, but was curious if the preference changes for EDH size decks.

For example, I'm using Ultra Pro sleeves, but the library tips over too easy unless I break it into two piles, which isn't ideal. Or do most people keep their deck/library in a deck box while playing to solve that?

EDH is the only thing i use dragon shields for; the sleeve quality is fine enough, it comes in a box of 100 (plus a couple extras I guess), KMCs work too but each pack is only 80 so you'd have to buy two for an EDH deck and have a bunch left over.

I really just don't like the ultra-pro sleeves made these days and I'll probably never buy them other than potentially to draft with.

I use Perfect Fits inside Dragon Shields. Squeeze the air out. Works well and protects the cards. No issues with library tipping.

Pretty much every type of sleeve I have tried tips with very large decks if the sleeves are brand spanking new, but after a day or so of use they aren't as slippery any more, and as ryan2754 mentioned they seem to not be so puffy.

I use ultra pro matte sleeves because they are cheap and decent.

Dragon shields b/c they come in a box of 100. I ordered a dozen boxes from a site for about $7 per box (all same color) and it was a good decision. I'm not a sleeve snob, but once you've used these it's hard to use anything else.
