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?

A deck for the Commander (EDH) version of Magic is 99 cards; usually sleeved. With good-quality card sleeves, "mash shuffling" usually works pretty well: split the deck in halves and just kinda push them together edge-to-edge, using the shape of the sleeves to help.
