Vanguard, "Ghost Meets Gal!" with its unique and lively art style has attracted many fans of the Lyrical Monasterio nation (nation classification). By pairing the same themed card sleeves, deck boxes, and playmats, players can not only fully protect their expensive rare cards but also enhance the overall visual appeal during battles.
Practicality and Protection Performance Analysis
- Mini Sleeve: Precisely fits Vanguard cards of 59mm x 86mm. The High Grade printing makes character colors more saturated and vivid, and the opaque back design meets official tournament requirements.
- Deck Holder V3: High-toughness PP material can withstand impacts from daily carrying. The spacious interior can easily hold a 50-card main deck and G zone cards, even when using thick sleeve protectors.
- Rubber Mat V2: The moderate thickness of 2mm absorbs impact when placing cards, and the soft surface material prevents card sleeves from being scratched by hard tabletops.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Q1: Are the Vol.870 mini card sleeves suitable for Pokémon or Magic: The Gathering cards?
No, they are not. Vol.870 is a Mini Size specification (89x62mm), specifically designed for mini-sized cards such as those in "Cardfight!! Vanguard" and "Yu-Gi-Oh!". Standard Size cards (63x88mm) cannot be fitted.
Q2: Can the Deck Holder V3 accommodate a deck with triple sleeves?
Yes, it can. Official tests show that when paired with thin inner sleeves, Bushiroad character sleeves, and outer 200μm sleeve protectors (a total of three layers), the deck box can still hold approximately 67 cards, sufficient for a basic Vanguard deck.
Q3: How should I clean a dirty rubber playmat?
We recommend gently wiping the fabric surface with a slightly damp soft cloth and allowing it to air dry in a cool, well-ventilated area. Do not wash, use strong chemical cleaners, or expose it to direct sunlight to protect the printed colors and rubber structure.
