How do you shuffle big decks? (feddit.de)

Some games come with gigantic stacks of cards that I find hard to mix with card-friendly methods. Games like Ark Nova, Clank, Hogwarts Battle have unmanageable decks but I hate bending the cards.

Whats the best way?

I had a major shuffling speed boost with the No bend riffle shuffle , but a little modified, I hold the cards of one hand rotated 90 degrees.

This is after the full deck is broken down into manageable size chunks.

I highly recommend everyone try this style of riffle. It took one day to have a decent speedy riffle.

Probably still explain or ask permission before doing it with other peoples cards too.

As someone with little hands, thank you! This technique makes shuffling large cards so much easier!
