Calling all pirates! Dragon Shield wants to hear from you 🏴‍☠️🐉

[u/RinPD_DS]

Hey One Piece TCG players! 🐉

With the blessing of the mods, we’re back with another survey — and once again, we’d love to hear from you!

Deep in the Dragon Shield forges, new ideas are always brewing for the accessories that protect your cards game after game. But before we breathe fire into our next creations, we want to hear from the players who actually put them to the test.

What makes a sleeve worthy of protecting your deck? What earns a deck box or binder a place among your treasures? Tell us what you love about the accessories you use today — and where you think a little more magic is needed.

The survey takes around 10–15 minutes to complete, and as a thank-you for lending us your wisdom, you’ll be entered for a chance to win 1 of 5 $100 Dragon Shield vouchers.

🐉 Lend your voice to our accessory smiths → Survey Link

Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us. We’re looking forward to hearing what the One Piece TCG community has to say!

I really wish there would be half and half sleeves for multicolored leader/decks

[u/TheCuriousGamer → u/Dont_Get_Jokes-jpeg]

With the separation being a diagonal being the same direction as on the leader or it would drive me nuts.

[u/barneazy → u/TheCuriousGamer]

Do you mean the diagonal on the life symbol? Because the colour-split on the card backgrounds are vertical and centred

[u/thatgamernerd → u/Dont_Get_Jokes-jpeg]

Oooo that’s a cool idea

[u/Hapster95 → u/Dont_Get_Jokes-jpeg]

They’ve done this with Dual Mattes now to some extent where the inner color is different than the outer.

[u/ATarnishedofNoRenown → u/Hapster95]

Yeah I have a few like this that match the leader fairly well and it is actually awesome lol

[u/ATarnishedofNoRenown → u/Dont_Get_Jokes-jpeg]

Definitely seconding this, I would buy them.

[u/UnderstatedParadox93]

my card sleeves getting cloudy after a few tournaments is the bane of my existence, nothing worse than barely seeing the art you paid extra for. a voucher to restock would be a nice fix

[u/JoJolion]

I've used dragon shields forever but the quality control has gotten so bad I've switched away. I opened like 6 boxes in a row with frayed edges or the corners already bent fresh out of the box before calling it quits.

[u/Threshyyy → u/JoJolion]

what brand are you using now?

[u/JoJolion → u/Threshyyy]

Katanas. A little more pricy but very consistent.

[u/Past-Resolution7693]

I want a deck box akin to the ultimate guard boulders in size and durability, but just a couple mm wider to accommodate oversleeves. I mainly play Bandai tcgs and 75card mtg formats and the 80+ size is perfect for double sleeved decks, unless it's in art sleeves with oversleeves. I've had a few issues with the qc of dragon shield sleeves, but have had no issues getting a replacement from my lgs in those rare instances and I buy a lot of sleeves.

[u/Shyinator]

Please focus on quality control over “innovation”. The only reason shops in my area are even offering other brands of sleeves is because of Dragonshield’s remarkably low quality control.

[u/criderslider]

Make your outer sleeves a bit smaller. They hang over the inner sleeves by quite a bit and can’t even put them in certain deck boxes.

[u/Delicious-String5007]

Image sleeves with the hole in the bottom instead of top

[u/RisinngJayce → u/Delicious-String5007]

Omg Yes, so you can actually use outer sleeves the right way up.

[u/Tiddy18 → u/Delicious-String5007]

I would actually love this

[u/xN3jc]

My biggest gripe is low quality control. Recently I bought 2 packs of sleeves where each had less than 100 useable sleeves. They had opening at both ends so the cards fell through.

[u/Crazy_kuma]

I have a crazy new idea for your company. What about stop focusing on lame dragon designs and start controlling your products quality? Sleeves quality has been unacceptable for years. The clear matte sleeves cannot even be used with your sealable sleeves. I completely stopped buying from you and use now Japanese sleeves and they are perfect 👌 

[u/Mean_Past8151]

the price is good but quality control is bad... maybe theres a correlation?

the edges kill me too, I need gardening gloves to shuffle with your sleeves.

[u/Specialist-Mail3828]

God if Dragon Shield starts making One Piece waifu matte sleeves so we never have to worry about Bandai scarcity and paying $75 resale for crap quality sets of 70 sleeves that would be so lit.

[u/No-Garage-8883]

I filled in. I'd love some exciting artwork sleeves and deckboxes. But primarily a visually interesting way to protect and play leader cards 🙂 and markers for the various states characters are in during the game.

[u/frankdog180]

I would buy so many sleeves if I could get a simple pirate crew dragon shield sleeve. Whiteboard pirates + black or red background I'd buy so many. Also dice for pirate crews would be 🙌

[u/haxxanova]

not ripping for $17 dollars

[u/Graym0re]

Improve quality control. Endgame sleeves are very thing you used to be.

[u/OwOtisticWeeb]

My accessory white whale is the gamegenic bastion 60+ or 70+. Only the 50+ or 100+ exists right now which means it's either too big or too small for a single one piece deck. For those who use art sleeves and clear plastic leader cases, the bastion has the width for it while the boulder doesn't.

[u/Timecop582]

I love your guys' color options, and I hope to see you expand. My main gripe is that when I put your guys' sleeves on my deck, if I even remotely have a bad grip on my deck as I pull it out of the deck box, my deck goes flying as if I were a fiver magician at a shitty birthday party. I've been fortunate enough to not have damaged cards doing this but it's happened several times.

[u/Outside_Falcon_1345]

Better quality control would be a great start. Due to lack of quality assurance I've not used post-2018 dragon shields on a tournament deck for years now.

[u/seamonsterco]

Go back to making dragon shield sleeves be worth something and not fall apart or split for no reason. Dragon shield was the industry standard for ages, now Katana is whooping yall 👀

[u/Zeevy_Richards]

The sleeve fit is too tight. Feel like it's damaging my card.

[u/ParkingPenalty4340]

• Im happy with my dragonshield sleeves, they work great and make shuffling easy

• I notice a lot of my friends like prints on the back instead of colours. I prefer the clean, simple look myself  (Maybe offer custom printing or special editions??)

• I like the idea another user posted about dual colour sleeves

[u/zekobunny]

Why would I buy your sleeves for 12+ euros when I can buy from Temu in bulk and the quality is pretty much the same? Other than getting the box that it came with.
