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?

In that case I'd say pile shuffle before regular shuffle is the way to go

Yea, that's what I usually do. With breaking up the regular shuffle into smaller stacks when the deck is huge.

Sleeved cards is also good, because you can usually skip the pile shuffle and just do the mash shuffle
